How post-abortion grief led to depression 

The majority of the women I have heard from about the after effects of abortion, say in effect that a nightmare begins that never ends. Tragic.

I am so sorry for your loss. I have been there too and now volunteer to help women heal from the effects of post abortion. It is such a void experience many do not understand. When love is in your heart, it hurts a lot.

Your story brings me to tears ,I’m going through emotional regret again after many years have passed since I had an abortion…and I’m trusting God to pull me out of this funk. I appreciate you telling your story it helps me so much . God bless you sweetheart 🩷

The trauma of no one believing you (regardless of the pain or trauma) is hard enough. That IS where you meet Jesus. 101. God bless and I'm sooo glad you are you healing, and I'm moved to tears

I had my first ever abortion about 15 days ago. I'm 21, still in college, just starting up with my career and so is my boyfriend. I found out that I was 8 weeks pregnant on my birthday and I broke down instantly. The reason being that I had always imagined having kids with the loml (my boyfriend) but it was just the timing, I did not want to mess his life up but I still gathered courage and told him that I was pregnant and he was scared to death. I felt helpless and didn't seem to have any other option but abortion. The next day I got a sonogram, that's when I heard it's heartbeat for the first time and I could not stop myself from weeping. Only if the timing was right, I wouldn't have had to do this. I really wish I didn't have to do this. This is a trauma I will never heal from. When I first walked out of the abortion clinic, the feeling I had, I haven't felt this empty my entire life. I look at the sonogram every night and cry myself to sleep. I keep thinking about what would he/she have looked like, what they would have been like, etc. I feel like I will never get over this. I don't talk about it to anyone, not even him. I often get the urge to hurt myself, almost everyday. I feel like I deserve the pain. I don't know what to do.

Thanks for your courage! Been there done that and your experience will help others heal

I made the decision no one forced me ...I thought it was the best decision for me it's been a year but I'm drowning...it never gets better only worse

when you were the Dad that never had his crap together enough to go for a family at that time its 5 years later and all you can think about is them being on the other side wanting you with them. Always wondering what they would look like, boy or girl, how they would be. Genuinely feeling like they want you there on their side is the most horrible feeling in the world never got to speak to ex about it or anyone really its messed me up now. I wish we had the child and she could leave still I just want the child now, others thinking the same should have the child dont be scared just go for it even if u dont want to be with that partner forever just have the child i know its scary but just do it it’ll mentally destroy you everytime in the future its not worth it dont be scared just do it trust me.

How long does an abortion last? Forever!

Thank you for speaking. It’s appreciated and will help women of our future. God bless you and your baby.

Had one at 17 y/o almost 15 years ago . Been dealing with infertility ever since 😢definitely hardddd fighting this fight in my head but I give it to God that He forgave and one day I’ll have my child or children

This is heartbreaking and so are the comments😭 this would be so traumatic! Here I am knowing what I already know in my heart, I have 4 kids already and I'm nearly 38, and this is still too hard....My God how to choose when you cannot😭😭

Good on you for speaking up about abortion.

It’s so sad that no one cared enough to ask you if you wanted to keep your baby. If even one woman can be spared a forced abortion it’s worth it to end all abortions.

Its so sad .... women who don't even know me tell me what they felt when they had to abort....

How could anyone commit such a horrific crime against humanity??

I can't thank Allah enough for the grace of Islam ❤😭😭

Poor kid. Fancy dropping your daughter off for such a traumatic process??? let alone allowing the death of your grandchild??? So much for my body, my choice. 🙏❤️🙏

My thing is if you don’t want children that’s fine…but to not live with the repercussions of your own choices should never be respected…give the kid up for adoption before you wipe it from existence…millions of women out here who can’t even have kids who are dying for them…just seems all kind of messed up

I hope all who listen to this know, as the bible reveals, we ALL deserve wrath. Jesus the Messiah paid an awful gruesome price on the cross because as it is written we have all turn led aside from what is right to our own self serving way. The true gospel is not a Mickey mouse gift giving genie but an all knowing creator who put to death His own Son in our place. However he also saw in those who come to Him and repent and believe, something of intense value and worth that caused him to willingly undergo that awful suffering. He is not a fool he will indeed receive the bride price he paid for. So I hope women or anyone do not give up on themselves for one or all of their mistakes- Jesus has paid it all. Praise God it is written even though we were helpless, without God without hope and in the world, He successfully endured his vicarious atoning sacrifice as the Kinsman Redeemer. "And we know He is coming again, this time not to bear sin but to bring salvation to those who wait for Him." He came to seek and to save that which was lost, fulfilling Ezekiels prophecy about He himself finding the "lost sheep of israel". Dont let our wretched disfigurement from the fall keep from the unblemished lamb: their is forgiveness in Him.
