Q: phobia of getting pregnant again

Earlier this year, I got pregnant and had an abortion. I was still in high school. I had the abortion alone, without telling anyone except my boyfriend. I didn't even tell my parents. Now I am terrified of getting pregnant again. It happened 6 months ago but recently I have been having dreams of being pregnant and being uphappy by it. I am so scared of being pregnant (I am still sexually active, although I am not on the Pill) and I find myself stressing about when my period comes and being paranoid about if I am pregnant AGAIN. I don't know what to do, or who to talk to. I'm heading off the college and I'd like to not worry about this anymore, but I am so terrifyed to getting pregnant again. I never had any qualms about having the abortion but I'm still unhappy.. Help me...

If you continue to have unprotected sex, you WILL get pregnant again. You need to get on some sort of birth control. If you're scared about your parents finding out then believe me, they'll be a lot happier that you're using protection than if they found out you were having sex without it.

You have a lot of options when it comes to contraception.. you could get on the pill, the patch, the depo shot or even get a contraceptive implant if you want a more long-term solution. Do some research & choose a method that you think would suit you. Getting it sorted now will mean that you can enjoy your time at college & not have to worry about getting pregnant every month.

Your going to get pregnant again if you don't get protective. Your what 18? Going to college. Do the responsible thing and get your self on some birth control. You will most likely stress less. You will be protected against pregnancy, instead of just hoping your not..
