Post Abortion Syndrome Posted: 01-12-04 01:37am
Hello all,
i wanted to say thanks to all those who
look at my post. I was writing because
tuesday I will be getting an abortion and
I wanted to talk to someone that has
already done this to see how they have
coped with the post abortion syndrome. I
am urrently 15wks into my pregnancy.
The reason I am getting an abortion is
because me and my husband don't have a way
to support it. We already have 1 child
and my husband just started working again
after being laid-off for 9 months. I
don't know how I will feel after this
possibly releived but also sad, so that is
my reason for getting on here to get
advice or talk to someone and become a
friend and get a helping hand besides the
one that I know my husband will give me.
No one besides my husband and 1 friend
knows about what I am going to do.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Once again thank you.

I terminated a pregnancy at 13 weeks
because of severe health problems of the
baby so while my reasons were different I
have some understanding. This will be
hard & you will never forget. I wish
you had posted sooner I would have
suggested the option of adopting the baby
out, as you sound like you don't want to
do this. You should get some counselling
afterwards. Pm me if you want to chat.

Erica,
what is right for one person is not
necessarily right for another & unless
you have actually lived ccruz_03's life
you can not know what you would do in her
shoes any more than she can know what
she'd do in yours.

I had a a almost a year to date. I was
well lets say kinda far along, but I was
18 and had no way to support it. I was
one always against it, but when it came
and I was in the situation it seemed like
a logicall one. I had and still have pass
I was very depressed and pushed everyone
away for quite a while. I eventually
worked through it on my own felt shame I
didn't want to talk to anyone about it. I
do think if you are going to go through
with it make sure you are 100 % sure it's
what you want not anyone else influancing
you. It wasn't all my decision and I
regreted it and still do. Get help before
and after talk to someone I wish I had.
Best of luck and if you need to talk i'm
here and can help answer any questions.
