Hey everyone, I'm new here. My name is Jess, I am 19/f/ny and I am 9 weeks pregnant. My boyfriend left me after he found out, so I am just looking for support from people who understand what I am going through. I think its really cool that there are places like this people can come to to seek help and advice. If anyone ever wants to chat, feel free to email me. TTYL.

I have to start off by saying that I went to your web site and I am quite disturbed. If you think that killing yourself is the answer then you are wrong. Take some time and read some of these wonderful people pour their heart out. You will soon find that no matter what they all pull it together in the end for their children. Your life is worth so much more than to waste it on a guy. You can do this on your own. Yes in a perfect world we would all have a white picket fence with a husband that leaves the house at 9 and returns at 5. But life isn't like that. Believe me I know your feeling of desperation, but talk to the people here and you will soon see that you are not alone. You are so young and you can still do so much more with your life. You are no longer living just for yourself, you are living for your child. Just wait until you feel the joy of that baby. Your heart will ache everytime you even think about them not being in your life. They are so worth life. Just try and remember that everything happens for a reason and you will find your path. Everyime you feel down, come to this board. There are people here who feel just as you do. Don't let your ex ruin you. and you never know in a year or so from now he may come around a support you, but you need to remember that if he doesn't, you can do it. It will seem overwhelming at the beginning, but belive me it gets better. I have a 1 year old girl and I am think and act so much different than I did a year ago. Hell, I think and act differently than I did yesterday. Everyday is different and you grow with them. You will make mistakes, but how are you supposed to learn. If you ever need to talk, I am here. Take care of yourself and your baby. Try and think about what I said, talk to you soon. Jayme

Hi Jess, and welcome to the site. Some powerful things in your journal. I'll tell you it brings back some memories of days gone by, days I'm glad to say are just, distant memories. It does get better if you let it. Might be slow in getting there, and some days may seem as if nothing at all is happening, but after some time you'll also look back and be thankful that you struggled through.
Again, welcome to a place with some good people willing to listen and lend support. We all may still have problems from time to time, but I think the rewards we get along the way make it all worth while.
Don

Jessica,
You have really gone through a lot of trouble in your website to let everyone know how depressed, lonely, and angry you are. I am sorry that you are having such troubles and that you cannot find peace in your life. I wish that you could get help for yourself so that your baby will be born healthy and you can heal. The baby needs you right now, and you need to get some help for your depression. If your beau doesn't want the baby and you can't deal with this now how are you going to deal with this after the baby comes? If you are serious about continuing with your pregnancy then you should put the baby up for adaption when its born, so it doesn't have to watch you continue cutting. There are a lot of couples and single people who would be happy to adapt and raise your baby in a healthy and happy environment. Your beau looks violent and lazy...and he doesn't deserve you... or the baby. Forget him! I truely wish you the best of luck. Try and take care of yourself and be responsible enough to get help...not just for your sake but the baby's as well. Frowner Eeker

I appreiciate your comcern, but didnt want to kill myself. I am a cutter. But I stopped cutting back in May, and it has been difficult for me not to do it, smoking used to help calm the urges, but now, I cannot smoke. Its been hard lately, but I do have my friends and family supporting, I just wish sometimes the baby's daddy would do the same.
Thank you for all of your nice comments.

hey!!! i'm thinker's daughter, trinity. i'm 12 years old, and i'm going into 7th grade.

MammaMayer, i saw ur website... i used to have a friend who used to cut, then she moved away. I never knew what it looked like, and now that I'm older my mom showed me your pics.... I'm deeply desterbed!! Eeker

U CAN do it without a man! and if he doesn't want to be in his own son's life, then forget him!!!! u dont want ur precious baby to be around somebody like that anyways! and i would tell him that! (i'll bet he wouldn't like that!)

when i went on ur website, i read some of ur entries... i was extremely upset at the fact that he said that u should have a miscarage, i would be ticked!!!! he sounds like a jerk... and i wouldn't even talk to him anymore. let HIM wonder whats going on in his son's life... that HE'S MISSING!

my mom encourages me to see my dad, but i dont see the need, lol. why hang around with somebody who doesn't like u as much as u like them?? it just makes no sence... and i actually dont even want to have a relationship with him anymore... but of cource, right when i get old enough, he wants to create a relationship, but its WAY too late now, as far as im concerned!!! im sure that ur kid will eventually think the same thing (if ur guy is still the same through his/her life) and will not want to have a relationship with him either... which is kinda good, i mean... dont get me wrong, its good to have a dad in ur life, but not when its that kind of dad.

U AND UR BABY CAN DO IT WITHOUT HIM... AND IT WILL BE SUCCESFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!

i want one of those little message thingies on the bottom of the screen too (lol) so here it goes...

"God made boys first because every beautiful thing needs a rough draft!!!! U are beautiful!!!" Razzer

Thinker, You should be so proud to have such a well spoken, intelligent, thoughtful child. What wonderful words of wisdom to come from such a young age. If my daughter grows up to be half of what you daughter is, I will be a proud mom!!

Mommamayey317, I hope that everything is good for you, at least for today. Take some of the advice from thinhers daughter into consideration. There is a girl who has been raised by a single mom and look at how wonderful she has turned out to be. I hope you keep us up-dated. Jayme Smiler

Hi JG,
I was hoping nobody was going to get mad because I let her do that. I let her check out the website so we could have a discussion about teenagers and feelings. Sometimes this is how I teach her to have compassion for people. My own mom would not agree with me, and would like me to shelter her from things like what was in this website. I would rather her learn from me than hear of these things from other teens. Trinity really wanted to say something to MM. Thank you so much for saying that, she really is a great kid. I hope she stays that way. Sometimes her maturity scares the beejeezes out of me. Best wishes Smiler Karen

G'morning everyone, well it is here in Mackay, Australia. Spring is fast approaching both weatherwise and in my life.After years of being frozen by apprehension and indecision this week I took control of my life again. I've moved back to my hometown,separated from my husband and for the most part it feels great...scared, still apprehensive but at least I'm in a forward gear. I have two healthy normal kids 10 and 14, and while they're hurting, they trust and love me.No doubt this honeymoon euphoria won't last but it will get me through all the redtape and wrangling. This site is a great forum and I love chatting and am up for a discussion on most topics.
