Ok I dont know where to post this and Im feeling ashamed for even thinking this but as per usual OCD has won and is making me worry.
I was out jogging last night and bumped into a friend who I know is struggling with drug addiction. He told me he no longer injects and is smoking it instead. I gave him a hug before I continued with my run (he was wearing a thick coat) and afterwards I felt a scratchy feeling on my hip.
Now mostly likely, in fact very likely it was my waistband on my leggings / pants rubbing but my OCD mind has now convinced me that maybe my friend had a syringe in his pocket that was somehow sticking through his coat and that accidentally pricked me and now I have HIV.
It didnt help when I got home and checked that I had a little mark on my hip too. I googled needle puncture marks but it doesnt look like the mark on my hip.
Basically I need some reassurance because I know how unlikely this is, I also feel really ashamed of myself for judging my friend (Im a recovering addict myself but my issue was booze so I should know better than to judge). I just feel frustrated that Im worrying about this and cross with myself too.
