I said I didn't regret it but I do
Posted: 01-24-08 03:34am

I honestly would like to tell everyone on here that I regret my abortion everyday of my life. I had the medical abortion and everything that could go wrong, did. I believe that I deserved it. I find myself unable to be happy for my friends who become pregnant. I can't congratulate people. I cant even smile at a baby without thinking about what I did. It was selfish and I would not recommend this to anyone. I have to live with this till the day i die. I'm so afraid to tell anyone. I never thought of myself as a guilty person, because i'm not. but this goes beyond that. I'm not hardcore religious, so please don't think this is where I'm coming from. I'm just a ruined person. And I'm paying for it.

I'm so sorry.

There are some very helpful resources to help women who are having problems coming to terms with their abortion. You don't have to live like this. There are people who can help you remember why you had the abortion in the first place and why you felt it was the right decision - and how you have now been given a second chance at life. You have nothing to pay for, and you're not a selfish person.

We can't link directly to these helpful resources because they are other forums and it's against the rules for some reason. However, you can PM your email address to any of the users who post to this topic and say they have resources for you, and then they can email these sites to you. These are non-religious post-abortion recovery forums, where women can discuss their experiences and help each other to heal.

You are not ruined!

You had an abortion, but it does not define you or make you who you are.

I do not regret my abortions, they were the right choice for me. BUT that does not mean that I do not care for women who are having problems.

Selfish is such a strange word... People use it so negatively, when it fact it is a very neutral thing.

We all MUST be selfish, otherwise people will walk all over us, and we will never have anything in life.

We have to take care of ourselves, and we cannot expect everyone else to give give give.

I do not feel that abortion is wrong. It may be selfish, but so are a lot of things in life.
