Mad Depression

I made the biggest and worst mistake of my life. I had an aboration march 6. I only did this because my boyfriend mother was freaking. She looked me in the face and made rude accusations about me, saying im onlly in this for money, im 16 what money could I want? And my boyfriend was supportive until his mother told us that if we keep the baby she was going to kill her self- and she made it very clear that she would. He broke down and told me that he didnt want it. My dad wasnt very supportive of me either and I didnt know what to do. My mom was begging me too move in with her and I didnt want that either. It came to the point where his mom gave me a piece of paper with numbers on it- they were aboration clincs- and told me I had no other choice and if not she would kill her self, My boyfriend at this point doesnt know what to do- He doesnt want the baby because of his crazy mother and hes trying too support me. I really felt like I had no choice, His mother made a promise to me that if I was too get it done that everything would go back to normal in time. So I did it, and not my life feels like its over. His mother is putting rules on everything we do like: only see each other twice a week, only on the phone 3 times a week, only talk at school and part the rest of the day. She has yelled at me numerous times and me and my boyfriend are constinaly at eachothers neck. I’ve suffered depression all my life but now it feels like the end of my life- I cant eat, I cant sleep, nothing interests me and his mother is someone that I cant handle. She is a very controling person and I cant handle it. I love my boyfriend a lot, he purposed to me and I said yes but I still feel like somethings wrong.

I want to fix the holes that ahve torn us apart and make mends with his mom, but I dont know how, can you help me?

Answer #1

I have a baby, and I’m only 16. It didn’t screw up my life.

Answer #2

This is very difficult. Having an abortion was probably a good thing. You are only sixteen and having a baby would really screw up your life. Even if you did marry your boyfriend and got away from his mother, you probably would end up in divorce anyway. Try to understand were his mother is coming from. There is something I learned from my family that has helped me enormously. Wether or not something is true, to the person who believes it it is true. She believes that you wanted to marry her son for the money. That may not be true but it is a reality to her. You need to convince her otherwise. Do not come at this from a place of anger. Do this with love. She loves her son and is trying to protect him. DONT marry him yet. Stick with school and wait. If you are still in love in a few years than marry him. It was a good thing that you got an abortion. Having a baby makes life INCREDIBLY hard. Plus, by having the abortion you have probably saved the baby a lot of heartache as well as family that blames him for ruining everyones lives. You should live with the person who you think will be the most supportive and make you the happiest. Getting married will NOT fill the void in your life and the hole in your heart. Make amends with your family as well as your boyfriends family. Good luck. I will be praying.

Answer #3

you should try and talk to your boyfriends mother. tell her that you understand how hurt she must have felt knowing that because of your actions, all threee of your lives could have ended.(these are to get that wreched old bat off your back) just because you got pregnant once doesnt mean your going to let it happen again.

Answer #4

Well that is good. You managed to keep your life together even with something that has the potential to make it harder. But wouldnt you agree that given the chance to do it over again you wouldn’t get pregnant?
