Hi again...remar has made excellent points, I hope you read them carefully.

I would strongly urge you to consider all of your options here.  Just possibly you facing an unplanned pregnancy so young is stressing you out in a big way.  You may NOT be ready to be a Mom, and that's OKAY!  Adoption is SUCH an amazing option, and it would really show compassion and maturity if you would give it some real thought, and discuss it with  professionals.  You can seek out advice from a therapist who has experience with this, to help you make a decision.

It's already pretty clear that the father of the baby doesn't seem as though he wants to be involved.  Raising a baby is hard enough to do as a team, let alone by yourself.  You're young with your whole life ahead of you...please give it some real thought.  You could give the gift of a child to people who desperately wants to be parents, and who are prepared to be parents...while giving YOURSELF a chance to continue going to school and planning a future.

Best to you....let us know how you're doing.

I'm so sorry you don't have any family or friends you can talk to about how you're feeling.
Please don't take this the wrong way but, if your boyfriend was not ready for a baby then why was'nt he using condoms? Surely he had to know that at some point you were going to get pregnant if there was no protection being used. And now he wants you to have an abortion? Sorry, but he needs to man up and take care of his responsibilities. If I'm wrong and you were on the pill or were using condoms and still got pregnant please forgive me. Still, your boyfriend made the choice to have sex with you knowing there could be a possible pregnancy.
Can I ask if you're still in school? The reason I'm asking is because schools do have counselors. The counselor would be a good person to talk to and maybe even help you find a therapist outside of school and help for you and the baby.
Another option would be adoption. I've talked to a few girls on the teen pregnancy forum about this before and most get offended. I hope I'm not offending you, I just wanted you to know that it is an option if you have no way to take care of the baby.

Yes, it can be your hormones even though you're only 6 weeks along. There are a couple of antidepressants you may be able to take while pregnant. You need to ask your Dr about this though. If you're not in therapy I would highly recommend it.
Do you have family and friends that you can talk to? Is the father there for you?

You mention hormones, does that mean you're pregnant?  Have you struggled with depression before?  Any background info you can give us would be great.  Hang in there!!
