Hi,
I'm new here. I'm 29 and I've had 2 abortions: one in May 2000, when I was waiting to find out if I'd got into university, and one in 2005, shortly after I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder.
I've made some bad decisions in my life, but my abortions were not among them: they were two of the best decisions I ever made in my life, and I'm not

Thank you so much for posting. I'm glad they went so smoothly for you.

I have a question for you, if you don't mind answering it: I was recently told by someone who lives in the UK that it's actually difficult to get an abortion there, that a doctor must say you can have one. Is that actually not true?

It is true that you have to get approval from a doctor - two doctors, in fact - but as long as you meet the criteria, they give you clearance to make your own decision.

You don't have to consult your own GP, thank God: the first time I got pregnant, I went to my GP and he was an absolute bastard to me. When he said "What can I do for you?" and I replied "I'm pregnant, and I don't want to be," he said "Oh you STUPID girl. You stupid, stupid girl." Girl?I was 25 years old

I can relate
