Heyy, I've asked a question according to my story already, but I need a bit more info..
I was just wondering what kind of drugs cause the HIV/AIDS virus? I know they're drugs which use needles.. but I'm not sure which ones they are.. I just need gneral information on them. Where people would get those, and also what the side effects of AIDS/HIV are before treatment.
Another 'also', What kind of treatments do you get for this, and how long would you be able to life at the age of about 18 when you got it?
shooting up shared herione, sharing drug works, sharing tattoo equipment, sharing ANY skin-piercing equipment, or unprotected sex are all things that can get you infected with the AIDS illness.
side effects include: being uncommonly tired, feeling as though something as little as a cold is really bad, having an injury go unhealed, for a REDICULOUS amount of time. (AFTER treating it properly).
most people die within tow years of their HIV having advanced to an AIDS diagnosis. this illness is usually still considered HIV for about 3-6 years.
any additional information, can be answered here:

It's their blood, which is on the needle, that spreads AIDS. You can never catch AIDS using a sterile needle, no matter what kind of drug is in it. AIDS doesn't directly kill you, it makes it so that little colds and stuff kill you. It removes your immune system. So it's impossible to predict when it will kill you, the same way that it's impossible to predict when you'll get a cold.
