In general every day life, the best way to help them is to treat them as you would anyone else, not stigmatising them and not filtering everything about them through the knowledge that they have HIV / AIDS. Try to give them a sense of normailty and ensure that they do not become socially isolated / excluded. Also understand that you can only become infected through direct contact with their blood and semen, so give them the same emotional and physical contact that you would anyone else. In terms of helping specific individuals, the best thing you can do is ask them what you can do for them. If your aim is to provide wider support, that is best done through giving your support to one of the many local, national and international organistations that try to help people living with HIV and AIDS.
