TEEN QUESTION/PROBLEM:
Help! I think I'm pregnant! I had unprotected sex a month ago, with my boyfriend. I did in fact get my period but it was very light and it only lasted 3 days. I took a early pregnacy test 2 days before my period, but it said negative. I still am really worried because I get morning sickness, abdominal pain, headaces, and dizzyness. On top of all this I can't tell my parents, all my friends don't want to hang around me anymore, and my boyfriend is verbally abusing me and doesn't care when I told him I might be pregnant. I didn't really want to have sex with him but now that I think about it I feel he used me, and now is avoiding me! I don't know where to turn, no one seems to care. HELP!
TEEN LINE WROTE:
Hello, first off I would like to thank you for contacting TEEN LINE. It sounds like you are feeling really lonely right now. I am sorry to hear about your troubles with your friends. It must be hard to feel so isolated in such a difficult period of your life. I am also troubled to hear about how your boyfriend is treating you. From what you have told me it seems like he has been very cruel. The fact that he is verbally abusing you and avoiding you really seems like it is causing a lot of pain. Also, I am little concerned because in your email you said that you didn't want to have sex with him and that he used you. Do you feel that he may have forced you into having sex with him? It sounds like it would really help if you could t alk to someone. Do you think you would be able to talk to a school counselor or trusted adult?
Lastly, if you think you may be pregnant, I would highly recommend you to see a doctor. You could also call Planned Parenthood at (800) 230-7526.
If you want to talk more, you can call us anytime 6-10 PM PST at (310) 855-4673 or try our Live Chat.
