Case Study | Maria

I live in a small town in Wyoming. I live with my mom and two younger brothers. I have been working since I finished high school. I live at home so I can help my mom with my brothers who are in junior high. I like to hang out with my girl friends. It gives me a chance to get out of the house and have some fun. I started having sex when I was fourteen. I look older than I am, so I can get alcohol easily. About a month ago I went out to a party at a friend’s house and got very drunk. I woke up the next day with a guy in the bed that I didn’t know. It was obvious that we had had sex. I haven’t seen him since. A couple of days ago I started having a burning sensation when I urinated and a vaginal discharge. I freaked out and went to the local STD clinic for testing. I think that guy gave me Chlamydia. I don’t know who he is, so I can’t tell him to get checked. I usually sleep with women, so I never thought that I would get an STD.
