Self induced abortions through alchohol

Please dont do this

https://www.cdc.gov/ncbddd/fasd/alcohol-use.html

From the CDC

If you are pregnant or trying to get pregnant and cannot stop drinking, get help! Contact your healthcare provider, local Alcoholics Anonymous, or local alcohol treatment center.

Obviously there is a standard of childcare in this country, and if your baby survives and it be proven that you intentionally tried to abort it and caused damage, you could be liable if its born

https://abcnews.go.com/US/mother-allegedly-drugs-pregnant-charged-murder-newborn-twins/story?id=64561902

Its happened all the time before mothers charged for fetal damage or death when they choose to give birth and are negligent

Why does the womens choice to give birth give the fetus rights or not to not be damaged. That doesnt make sense. Either they have the right to be protected or they dont.

I do want to add the morality of this debate triggered my mental health, its a very serious issue and I dont blame anyone for being pro choice.

The Right to Self Induced Abortion

A common pro-life argument is that women do not have the "right" to end an unwanted pregnancy. For the sake of the argument, assume that is true.

The reality is that in the course of living their lives, women can cause themselves to abort, whether intentionally or unintentionally. With many potential methods, intent would be impossible to prove.

Since pregnancy occurs inside the body of a woman, if she doesn't tell anyone, no one will ever know. Some women know they are pregnant before getting a positive test result. There are also other signs, like missing a period or having sore boobs, that suggest pregnancy without having official confirmation. How could intent be proven without a positive test?

PLs can claim that women don't have the right to end unwanted pregnancies, but are you going to prevent all women of childbearing age from living their lives to prevent any action that could possibly harm a fetus? Are you going to make daily pregnancy tests mandatory? Are you going to create pregnant jails for 24/7 monitoring to prevent self-induced abortion?

If the answer to all of those questions is no, then you will never be able to fully eradicate abortion, or be able to prove that it is happening.

We are our bodies. They are where we live. They are who we are. Our bodies are autonomous already.

trying to overcome a self-induced abortion

So, my girlfriend (21F) had an abortion last year when she was with her ex-boyfriend, I knew that since the beginning of our relationship because she trusted me and told me right at the beginning of our relationship (we've been together for about a year now)

This episode of her life has affected her in so many ways (like is supposed to) and I always tried to help her changing her life, changing her mindset about her past, trying to move foward and see that the past happenned but it doesnt mean its gonna happen again (with me) but nothing has changed and our relationship is turning into darkness, all I can see is darkness and I'm really sad about that.

I know I'm not supposed to cure her, I'm not a doctor but I know I can help her go on with her life and try to make the past only affects her a little bit (since its probably impossible to forget something like that I guess) but it seems like all my effort doesnt mean anything, she is becoming less and less active, depressed, anxious and all the bad shits that kills a person from inside.

I really need advices on how to handle that, because her happiness means the world to me but she's not happy anymore, we were happy back in the days when we met and were starting dating, she was a completly different person and that's why I thought her past wasnt affecting her at the time because it wasnt according to her. I dont mean I dont love her anymore because she changed a lot, I really do, but its getting harder and harder to see a life around her if she doesnt get help and change her life.

I'm trying since the day a met her to get her back to psychologists but she didnt do that and it is very expensive to me to handle the costs all by myself (her wage sucks and she is the only person in her house working, and I must pay rent because I'm living by myself now)

I really dont know what to do, my stomach hurts, I'm crying all the time when she's not around, I feel sad and I cant hide from her anymore, I really need advices because I tried everything and it didnt work.

[TOMT][MOVIE][2010s] Spanish language movie featuring an all-girls Catholic school where a student dies from a self-induced abortion

Posting for a friend! She's been searching for a movie, here are some details:

- Movie was watched online around 2015, but may have come out around 2013. My friend doesn't think it was Netflix but is unsure.

- Genre: Thriller/Mystery, kind of Paranormal?

- Setting: Private catholic all girls school in Mexico or Spain

- Plot: A girls' school is on lockdown due to a student dying after a failed self-abortion. The entire movie takes place in one classroom, where detectives are confining the students while they investigate. There are cliques in the class such as popular girls, outcasts, and specifically a blind girl who is later able to see the dead student (despite being blind). The focus switches from girl to girl in the class, with flashbacks showing their individual interactions with the dead student, and (sometimes) their role in her death. My friend remembers that some of the girls convinced the victim to give herself an abortion. The movie in general takes place during a rainstorm, with a rainy and somber ambience throughout.

My friend is able to give more info if needed! Any help is much appreciated. :)

Self-induced abortion?

Say you got pregnant and realized it early on, but didn't want to let anybody know about this or couldn't afford an abortion, what would be the best and most "safe" way to abort the fetus? Also, how could someone like a friend who's not a pro help you out?

Pro-life folks, how do you propose we enforce pro-life legislation against self-induced abortion?

If a woman has abortion carried out by a doctor, I can see how you could prosecute the doctor.

If a woman induces her own abortion, then what?

I ask because Trump's recent remarks seem in line with pro-life goals, but I've heard pro-lifers do not wish to punish women.

Thanks.

Northern Ireland - Giving myself a self induced abortion

I am 18 years old, and am currently a student in Belfast. I am pregnant (5 weeks) , and cannot afford to travel to england or scotland for an abortion (Around Β£1000), I used a condom, but am not ready for children. I would not be able to afford feed them or take time off university to raise them.

I would like to have a friend purchase mifepristone and misoprostol to self induce a miscarriage. She lives in England , and I am thinking of asking her to send a variety box of sweets, with the pills hidden in a box of tic tacs.

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2016/apr/04/northern-irish-woman-suspended-sentence-self-induced-abortion

What is the worst that can happen to me legally? How serious is the thing I am doing? Could my friend get in any trouble? I would like to remain anonymous and do not want to contact any organisations as I am not sure if they would be legally required to inform anybody.

Thank you for any advice.
