Pregnancy Dream

So, a super disturbing dream happened and I'm not really okay with it.

I was first in Ireland, staying with my relatives, and my college roommate was with me.  I remember there being multiple toilets, but it looked like not all of them worked, so I needed to figure out which one to use but didn't actually do it.  Then, college roommate dragged me to a store, where she put me in the bathroom for a pregnancy test.  Originally, I scoffed, but when it turned up positive, I froze.  I exited and started panicking, telling her that I didn't know what I was going to do because I couldn't have a kid and how did this happen and all that stuff.  I came to a conclusion that abortion was the way to go, but I was even scared about that.

Fast forward: I was shopping in a mall with two of my aunts.  One was my aunt with depression, and another was my incredibly conservative aunt.  All of a sudden, an announcement came on saying that the Vans store was giving away free pairs of sneakers, so we rushed over there.  It was really crowded, and I still kept thinking about the pregnancy and stuff, and then I started talking to my aunt with depression first.  But then, something dragged her away, and my conservative aunt came over and pressured me into telling her what was wrong.  When I said I was pregnant she spun it as a good thing, but then I started hyperventilating, screaming again about how I couldn't have a child right now; I was in school and I had things to do and I was deathly afraid of what would happen to my body and my psyche.  She then kept telling me I could have it adopted but I yelled about how I couldn't deal with what would happen to me and that I didn't have nine months to sacrifice.  Continually, I mentioned abortion but she just kept telling me no, that I couldn't do that. My breathing got worse, and I remember feeling like I was choking on nothing, and I kept wheezing and it was overall just not very good at all.  Basically, panic attack.  I still decided I was going to get the abortion.

I remember something else happening but I don't specifically remember what it was.
