Young men aged 20–29 present the highest rates of HIV in Chile, yet little is known about their experiences after diagnosis. This study sheds light on the meaning of living with HIV for young gay Chilean males. Qualitative analysis of 11 in-depth interviews, employing Heidegger’s hermeneutical approach, resulted in a depiction of feelings of loneliness and sadness, encounters with discrimination, and a lack of social support. Participants also offer recommendations on utilizing peer support as an essential component for programs targeting young gay men living with HIV in the capital of Chile. Additionally, they suggest that health care providers play a crucial role in supporting the process of accepting the condition. Conclusions: It is imperative to enhance psychological support by integrating it into the HIV program for all clients and families facing crisis situations. The establishment of support groups within hospitals that are part of the national program providers is recommended. Education on comprehensive sexuality should be provided in educational institutions, alongside visible campaigns across all media platforms to dismantle the stigma linked to the disease. Lastly, improvements in care duration and support from health services can be achieved through the provision of comprehensive care founded on unconditional acceptance.
