Well a lot of you know how I've been struggling with me being lesbian. Well here at home I've been trying to cover it up, by hooking up with guys and sleeping with them. Bad idea... I know. Ended up getting pregnant, and planned on keeping the child. I was 100% sure that I wanted to keep it. But I have a heart condition, and I wouldn't of been able to carry it to term safely. and there was a chance I could of died and lose the baby. so I had the abortion, and feel horrible about it. This was a few weeks ago. And Im still dealing with a lot of emotions, anyone who has experience with this, how did you deal with it?

I know this is an incredibly difficult situation for you. But, you just have to know that what you did was best for both you AND the baby. If you couldn't carry the baby full-term, the baby would have likely had conditions of their own, just like your heart condition. Not that this would be a bad thing, but taking care of yourself is always important too.

I had a miscarriage when I was 16. Not the same as an abortion, but the loss and emotions are all the same. Sometimes I feel like a part of me is gone, and I often think of the child I had lost. However, don't dwell on the situation since it's only going to bring you down. Think of the positives, and that maybe in a few years you may try to have another child and the chances may be better.

Sorry to hear about the hard decisons you had to make - that I believe no teens should have to make.

I think theres a few things you need to work on:

First, try not to always please other people. You need to be happy with yourself and your not. I can tell. Dont change or act like some else to feel accepted. Be open about your sexuality although I know it hard.

Second, dont do anything you dont want to do. Dont sleep with guys so people think your striaght.

BE YOURSELF. LOVE YOURSELF. BE HAPPY. And from your post, it doesnt look like you are doing any of those things. Remember, you come first.

Take care of yourself.

Best wishes,
Chris
