I've been meaning to write something about his blog http://sexdrugssausagerolls.wordpress.com/, or his short story "Dying, And Other Superpowers (which I have not bought yet..But I may buy it for my b-day....that and Twizzlers!! Time will tell ..Anyway.. it´s about a guy,who gets super powers and he finds out he has HIV..and it has been made in to a short movie which looks really COOL! Think X-men with issues ..)but well..i haven´t...
I have followed his blog for a while..Kristian is someone who says what he thinks..and through his blog he reveals some dark times .. and his fears, struggles..and life in general. In the latest post he talks about his struggles with addiction and how 2011 started with a downwards spiral...A roller coaster of falling off the wagon and then climbing back on it again..
*2011 began as it was to continue for the next six months. I started off the new year drunk, lonely, frightened, in debt and with a hole in my soul ten times the size of that in my bedroom window.*-K.J
Kristian found a way back ... he bravely saved his own life..Now telling his story to help others struggling with an addiction...This year he spent New Year’s Eve eating ice cream and watching movies with the love of his life :) Sounds like a good New Year´s to me!!
Even if I haven´t gone through the same things in my life, i can understand it. Those who know me know I'm not a big drinker..but I have been on the other side..
Kristian have gone through so much....I don´t know if I would have made it through everything he has....Would I be that strong? or that brave to tell the world my story? Would you?
Kristian:*I’m not ashamed of who I am, and I’m not afraid to be honest. And I will carry on holding my head up and fighting on behalf of those who live in fear so that we can finally end stigma once and for all. My name is Kristian Johns, I’m HIV positive. And I refuse to hide, because I shouldn’t have to.*
Kristian also helps spread knowledge about HIV and was a part of a global WAD campaign called Be An Activist . Kristian may have HIV but that is not who he is...Kristian is a son, a brother, a friend, a writer, an activist, he´s smart, cute;)...He makes me want to start writing(Not that it will make me write any faster...Did you know a short story is about 2000 words, if not more?!?! ....and after this post i don´t know anymore!.)..... and he can sing! (or so they say!) And... he is dating Clark Kent..Just my luck! ;o) I just wanted to say:Thank you for telling your story:) xox
