Seriously consider counseling. There is nothing weak about reaching out. No matter what any of my friends told me about being a mother, it is the hardest thing I have ever done. I own my own home, am able to stay home full time, live in a very child friendly community, have the full support of family and friends (including baby sitting at my beck and call) and still this little 20 pound, beautiful child can knock me on my a** at the end of the day! I would step in front of a freight train to save my child's life and I love my child more than myself- but that doesn't change that I have never worked so hard or felt so spent. You are not only talking about yourself raising a child, but about your mom and boyfriend as well. One more thing to consider, there are increased risks to the baby inutero at your age. I don't discount that you have strong feelilngs, but talk to someone to truly clarify where they are coming from.
