“…This happens because it is common that the news of seropositivity causes, at first, a sense of bitterness and lack of direction. However, after the initial impact, it is possible that a reorganization takes place in the face of the new reality, and that the PLHIV starts to face its condition better, being optimistic and relying on new perspectives for his life (20) . On the other hand, feelings about diagnosis are also determined by the representation of HIV/AIDS, making the discovery process more or less suffer.…”

Objective: to understand the representational content about HIV/AIDS among seropositive elderly people. Method: a qualitative study carried out from April to May 2017, in the city of Recife/PE, with 48 seropositive elderly people, through a semi-structured interview. The Social Representations Theory was used as theoretical framework and the method of lexical analysis through IRAMUTEQ software. Results: it was observed that the social representation of HIV is structured around the proximity of death and that it is a disease of restricted groups, leading to feelings of sadness. On the other hand, it is evident a transformation of the representation linked to the reified knowledge, leading to the process of naturalization of the disease. Final considerations: it is concluded that the elderly living with HIV, when they undergo a process of reframing about the disease, become more flexible to deal with their condition of seropositivity.

“…The gender inequality not only predisposes women to HIV but also perpetuates their vulnerability. Cultural norms often confine women to a submissive role in marital relationships, limiting their ability to negotiate safe sex practices and increasing their risk for HIV, sometimes unbeknownst to them due to their spouses' risky behaviors (Leslie, 2019;Pereira et al, 2014;Saldanha, 2003;Silva & Saldanha, 2012;Silva & Vargens, 2009;Solomon et al, 2010;Taquete, 2009;Wagner & Bosi, 2013).…”

The purpose of this phenomenological study is to explore the acceptance of HIV diagnosis of women in stable relationships. Based on eight semistructured interviews with cisgender Portuguese women, thematic analysis identified four interrelated themes that illustrated the emotional and psychosocial dynamics involved in this journey. Following an HIV diagnosis, participants grappled with complex emotions, societal perceptions, and the internalization of stigma. Marital relationships underwent profound changes, with trust breakdown and emotional distancing. Coping mechanisms ranged from seeking support to living in secrecy, which impacted psychological well-being. Acceptance of HIV diagnosis is influenced by self-stigmatization, societal perceptions of HIV, and gender dynamics. The findings contribute to the development of tailored interventions, emphasizing the interconnected nature of physical and psychological well-being in the diagnosis acceptance process.
