Herpes Live Uncensored: A Candid Q&A with Emily Depasse and Shaun Galanos

Your most-asked questions about disclosure, testing, medication, rejection, and living well with herpes.

I'm so grateful to

, MSW, MEd, for joining me for this awesome 60-minute live on Substack!

We had such a great conversation sharing our personal experiences living with herpes, and then diving into the questions people ask most often. Honestly, we could have kept talking for hours.

In this video, we answer:

  • When and how to disclose your herpes diagnosis

  • The pros and cons of getting tested for herpes (if you have no symptoms)

  • How to keep yourself protected from herpes and other STIs

  • The pros and cons of using antiviral suppressive medication

  • How to deal with rejection when disclosing

  • And much more!

Emily has included helpful resources and readings below to help you become more informed about herpes. She also has a searchable database of all her Instagram posts—you can access it here. Don't forget to follow her on Instagram.
