13 and possibly pregnant

Re: 13 and possibly pregnant

Hi, there!

Thank you very much for writing us! Sounds like you are afraid that you may be pregnant, and you are also worried about how your relationship may go with the 15 year old you’ve been having a relationship with. It is understandable that you want to put an end to your fears and worries. You deserve to live, and if you ever need someone to talk to about your desire to commit suicide, please don’t hesitate to call the National Suicide Hotline at 1-800-273-TALK (1-800-273-8255).

If it turns out you are pregnant, there are many organizations and people who can help guide you as a teen mom. It can be frightening to let your parents know or the baby’s father. There are people who have been in your situation that can share their story with you and/or whose story or whose listening ear can help you to make the best choices for yourself and the future of your unborn child. There is a National Pregnancy hotline you can call to help you find those resources as well. Their number is 1-866-942-6466. You can also call Planned Parenthood to discuss your options as well. Their number is 1-800-230-PLAN (1-800-230-7586).

We would love it if you called us or chatted with us so that we can offer you individualized support and talk about your situation even more. You deserve to be well, loved, alive, and safe. You also deserve to be in relationships where you are cared for and loved. We hope to hear from you soon!

Best,

NRS
