Relax: I'd be more worried about tetanus. You're not going to get HIV this way. I hope you also realize that you can't go on with these kinds of thoughts. They'll cripple you. Life's hard enough without seeing horrible danger everywhere. The cure is to talk with someone wise and good about feelings -- especially about sexuality, safety, HIV, what it means to be clean, and whatever else. Be brave.
