Summary

A guide for gay men aging with HIV, Aging with HIV offers an upbeat, down-to-earth approach for adapting to change, whether driven by age, AIDS, or both. Psychotherapist James Masten and physician James Schmidtberger provide concrete solutions for facing midlife with a positive outlook, offering a wealth of advice for building healthy habits and coping mechanisms. The book describes the nine changes common to gay men as they age with HIV, discusses the four challenges of aging, and presents a unique ten-step path to optimal aging with HIV, helping the reader to tailor the book's suggestions to the realities of his life. Woven throughout the book are first-person narratives from men who recount what workedùand did not workùfor them. In addition, Fast Fact, Research Review, and Reflection boxes highlight the latest research and challenge readers to take stock of the presentùand plan for the future. --Book Jacket.
