Only my sister knew I did abortion.

Type of abortion: with medicines

I was 8 weeks pregnant when I took medicines. I had to travell to clinic to take pills. I was on my own and I was very scared to travel back home after final pills were taken. But everything went ok. I started to feel pain after 4 hours and then it happen.
I was lucky I had choice to do medical abortion. I live in London and have access to NHS free service. In clinic everybody starting with receptionist were very nice and supportive.

Reason for abortion: financial issues, problems with my relationship

When I find out I was pregnant I was in shock. I wasn't in proper relationships and when I told him about it I was even more in shock because of his reaction and what he said to me.

I love children and I know I would be a good mother. But I dont want to give birth under this circumstances. I want my child have a father and a family.
I want it be happy when I see positive pregnancy test and be with a wright person and financially prepared as well.

Feelings about abortion: irresponsible, sad

I wish I never had to do abortion. 6 weeks have been passed since that day. I carry on with my life but there are moments when I get very depressed and Im afraid its will not go away so easily and so soon.

But even so I know I did right thing.I only regret to let myself pregnant and seeing wrong man.
