Reason for abortion: my personal reasons for not wanting a child, financial issues, my age (too young or old), mental health reasons

At the time i was 17 years young. I was addicted to drugs as was my partner. I was mentaly unstable i was not taking care of myself or my hygene. I had jobs on and off (more off then on )and was not even able to asure a stable life for myself. All together i was in no condition to rase a child let alone to rase it to becom a happy healty and stable adult.

Feelings about abortion: irresponsible, relieved, sad, grieving

Becomming pregnant is something that in my country can easily be prevented that is why i did feel verry irresponsible. Having the abortion did make me sad becous i love childeren and i realy would want them when the time is there. Last but not least it was a great relieve when it was done becous i realy would not have known how to rase a child with my addiction at the time and the relationship i was in. Stil at times i grieve over what could have bin but i know i made the right disicion.

Children: i have no children
