I’m 21 I live in Athens Greece 7 weeks pregnant, and everyone is pushing me to get an abortion even though I don’t want one

I’m so depressed and sad right now. I recently found out I’m pregnant and I’m 7 weeks along. I’m 21, I have no job, I’m not studying, and I feel like I have nothing stable in my life right now. Me and my husband got married in a political/civil wedding 5 months ago. He’s 22.

The problem is that everyone around me is pushing me to get an abortion, even though deep down I don’t want one. I understand why they’re saying it. We have rent, bills, and a lot of monthly expenses. We’re not financially stable at all. I also can’t live alone, and my husband still hasn’t finished his army duties. He has to leave for a year and then come back, so if I keep the baby, I’ll basically be alone during a huge part of the pregnancy/baby’s first year.

My mother won’t support me. My father won’t support me. My friends tell me I would be a good mother, but they also say abortion is the only realistic choice right now. I feel like everyone is looking at the practical side, but nobody is understanding how much this hurts me emotionally.

I asked my husband what we would do if abortion wasn’t allowed, and he said we would keep the baby and fight for it. But because it is allowed, he thinks we should do it now. That really hurt me, because it feels like we could fight for this baby, but he only wants to because there wouldn’t be another option.

I’m so lost. I know the situation is not ideal at all. I know we’re young, broke, and unstable. But I also know I don’t want to be pushed into a decision I may regret forever. I feel trapped between what everyone says is “logical” and what my heart wants.

I don’t really know what I’m asking for. Maybe advice, maybe support, maybe someone who has been in a similar situation. Please don’t judge me. I’m already scared and overwhelmed. I just don’t know what to do.
