hi, i'm sixteen and have just found out that i'm pregnant...i'm way too scared to tell anyone and am just considering having an abortion without letting anyone know, but i don't know if i'm brave enough to do it alone! should i just tell someone? or should i just do it alone?

Sweetie, honestly I would tell someone if I was you. That is a hard thing to do alone even when you are older. You are 16 I would honestly talk to someone about it. Even if its just a friend that you trust. You wont want to face this alone

i agree with southernangel. to make such a rash decision all by yourself could end up eating you up with regret later in life. you need to consider every factor and reason why you think an abortion would be best for you. call this pregnancy helpline number if you have nobody close to talk to, its 0800 028 2228. i really think you should try and tell your mum though, mums are understanding when it comes to things like this because alot of the time theyve been there before, frightened, apprehensive and scared about telling people, just how you feel. don't see your friends and family as the enemies who will just condemn you, but lean on them and listen to their advice. whats the worst they could do? whats done is done and they will only look to help you right now. good luck

Well you have to tell SOMEONE, getting an abortion is not like buying a bag of chips. At the very least you will need someone to give you a ride, they won't allow you to drive afterwards... you won't even be able to walk properly. You have to also consider that this is most likely the most difficult decision of your still very young life and you can't take it lightly. You may think it's just an easy solution to a difficult problem, but later on you will realize just how difficult it is... I am pro-choice so I'm not telling you not to, I'm just saying be absolutely sure. Good luck.

You need to talk to someone. Jumping into a situation without really having help can cause you psychological problems. Someone I knew once had an abortion, just out of the blue, didn't tell anyone she was even pregnant and I found out she had one about 3 months after it was done. To this day she has problems. I think if you were to talk to someone and get the support that you need you might be able to either go through it if that is what you still want and healthily or keep the baby if that's also what you want. You should talk to SOMEONE hun

i would definitely say talk to someone about this. even a counselor that isn't allowed to talk to anyone else about what you tell them. but at the same time, if you weren't ready to be pregnant, you might want to look into birth control, because abortion isn't a form of it. now, yeah i'm pro life, but i also know that things happen in people's lives that can't be controlled where an abortion might actually be helpful to the person but if you're getting it just because you're scared to tell someone, that's not a really good reason. just talk to someone before you make your decision. in the end it's YOUR decision and YOUR body so good luck with whatever you decide.

Okay ignore tootiepop, don't let anyone decide this for you. I am concerned that you might be viewing an abortion as an easy alternative because you're scared. That may or may not be correct, I can only base my opinions from your post. Really, if it's the right decision for you then I wish you luck, but if you aren't 100% sure about an abortion do not get one. I think its the way you phrased it "just considering having an abortion"... that just makes it sound like you don't realize how big of a decision it is.
