i'm 25 and my story is embarrassing to tell and i feel like i can't talk to my family about it. I found out my fiance of 5 years was cheating on me and I freaked out and kindof went off the deep end. I was so depressed and felt lost and alone. I met up with a friend from high school who i knew had some problems with drugs i figured i could get away from it all and spend a weekend doing that and my pain would go away atleast for a few days. Long story short I was told if I did crack I'd forget all about it. I know it sounds stupid but at the time I was so desperate to just run away from my pain. anyways I decided to try it. Two days later I woke up not knowing where I was or who I was with. I woke up naked with some crackhead and totally freaked out. Later I had found out that we had used protection but the condom broke and I know that I am a very fertile person. That was a few weeks ago i went to the doctors yesturday and got tested for everything and she insisted that I get a pregnancy test also. It's April 30th and my last period was march 12th and she things that I am pregnant. What scares me even more is I don't know who this person was and my so called friend won't return any of my calls. It will be a couple days before my pregnancy test comes back from the lab but I just know that I am. I didn't mean to do this and I don't even remember doing it. I just don't know where to turn from here
You need to figure out what your options are if you are pregnant. Do you feel you are ready to be a parent? Placing a child for adoption can also be a consideration. Are you pro-choice? Is having an abortion even an option for you?
You need to find a good crisis counselor. Look under crisis counseling in the phone book. There are help lines that can help you in these first stages. Find a professional to talk to.
Good luck. Let us know if there is anything else you think we can do.

I agree Bromanchik about having counselling, we all make mistakes but the important thing is to get help. You'll only feel worse if you don't have someone to talk to and you do need to think about what's best for you.
Hope your situation improves.
