• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

I just turned 17. I only recently found god. I was daing a 19 year old (I was 16 at the time) who pressured me into drug use and sex. A few weeks ago I found out I was pregnant. My boyfriend has left me and I have no way of affording to raise my child. I feel my only option is an abortion but I don't think I can bring myelf to kill my child.

What should I do? Will god ever forgive me for my past wrongs so I can move on with my life? Will I still be allowed into heaven after my immoral behaviour? HELP?!?!

Sweetheart, you are in a terrible situation. Of course, God will forgive you for your past wrongs if you are repentant and believe in Christ. But having an abortion is not the answer, that will only confound the situation and leave you with life-long scars. Is there a responsible adult that you can talk to? What about your folks? Someone at church? Youth pastor? There has to be someone (a Christian) that you can turn to that will offer you moral support and help you come up with an answer that doesn't include abortion. I'll be praying for you. Please keep us posted.

Will God forgive you, absolutely!! If you ask Him, he will definitely forgive you. We know the Father by looking at what Jesus did. You are not what you did in the past, you are what God says you are now!

An option may be to have the baby and offer it up for adoption. Are you a member of a local church? You may want to speak with a local pastor for help and guidance.

Some people talk about heaven and hell on earth and you maybe miserable if you kill the baby. There are programs and people who can help you to bring the baby to term. There is always the option of giving the baby to some loving parents who are not able to have a baby of their own. What the father did is a crime, it is called statutory rape. There is no limitation on that, so he could go to jail at anytime even 40 years from now. The wages of sin is death, but you can still choose life so that you and your baby can live. I know a women who raised a child that came from a rape. Everything worked out just fine for the most part. Her daughter grew up, got a degree and is working as a counciler now. Her sister actually had more anger to deal with then she did. God is able to help us through all of that. She use to talk about taking her daughter to prison to visit the guy who raped her. She did not put him there, but he got a bit wild and did other things they put him away for.

Abortion isn't the answer. Adoption could be. There are so many people who can't have children. Look into that if you can't keep your baby. God allowed that child inside of you to be created for a reason.

The Lord will forgive you for anything, but I've known people who have gotten abortions and it really scarred them. There are other options. Ask the Lord to guide you and show you what to do. He will!

There is no sin The Lord will not forgive if you ask Him and mean it.
None of us are any better than you or more perfect than you. We are all sinners saved by grace.

When we accept The Lord into our lives and choose to follow Him there is only one difference between us and non-Christians.

The knowledge and assurance that though we are imperfect and may mess up, we have a Loving Father who will not only forgive us when we confess and ask for His Forgiveness, but wipe our sin away as if we never committed it.
From The Word "Your sin I will remember no more"

The Lord loves you so much and is always waiting for you come to Him with open arms.

Once you ask for and accept His forgiveness, There's one thing left.
You must for give yourself.

lastly give anything you don't know how to face to The Lord and He will see you and carry you through.
It is hard but trust me I know.

I can not tell what to do with your child but I would recommend rather giving up for adoption than aborting him/her if you just can't afford to raise him/her

As everyone has advised speak to your pastor.

Nothing damages a girl more emotionally than an abortion.
Please, don't go down that path

If you ever need someone to talk to you welcome to pm me
