I am sitting in my room crying from all your kindness right now. I cannot thank you enough for all this. I am in Indianapolis. When I have more time I will be messaging some of you who offered. Thank you so much again. I needed this.

I hope you hear and read what you need so you can make your decision with confidence. You will make it through this. Don't doubt yourself because other people are trying to make decisions for you.
I will always encourge having someone with you for support. It isn't selfish to care about your life and wellbeing. Don't feel like you have to do this alone.

Tons of hugs! An unplanned pregnancy is scary and stressful (my first was unplanned) an you need to make the decision that's best for you! Everyone here is happy to offer an ear or any other support you need!
I've never been in that situation but wanted to say that I am so sorry people are being awful to you about considering this. It is your body and you do what is best for you.
Two years ago I had an unplanned pregnancy and I was in a terrible situation in my life so I made the choice to abort. I have never had one regret, it was absolutely the right choice for me. Don't let anyone influence you or tell you what's right or wrong. You have options, and you can choose the right one. None of those options are wrong. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions or need to talk. I'm so sorry you're having to make this decision.
I just want to come back and reiterate that we really are here to support you no matter what you choose. Don't feel like our "do what's right for you" is our coded way of pushing you towards aborting. If you make the choice to have the baby there are plenty of people here who have gone that way too and we'll still be here for support.
marniewin -- asdfjkl is awesome. If you choose to take one of us with you, you're in good hands with her.
That's sweet of you. I'm a real person. The PP that performs abortions is at 86th and Georgetown Rd. I think. Maybe 86th and Guion. Indiana has an F rating with NARAL, which means it has a number of things that make it difficult to get an abortion. The biggest one you'll want to be aware of is the 20 week ban. Abortions are illegal after 20 weeks. I think that's probably unconstitutional but it has not yet been tested and I'm guessing you're not interested in litigation right now, so just keep in mind that the timeline here is shorter than in most places.
you and I butt heads a lot but if I had to make this choice and needed an advocate you would be a top pick. Because bitches better beware of crossing you when you are in protective mode. You are a good friend to have that way.
