Question
i had an abortion 2 days ago. i don't believe in them but do believe it should be your choice. after the abortion i did feel relieved until when i got to my boyfriends house i lost it and can't stop crying and wondering all different types of things.. Did my baby feel anything? Did the abortion work? i was 15 weeks and the did the vacuum aspiration on me ( i think that is what its called). I'm scared i have had bed dreams ever since. I'm just so worried will this get better?? will i ever get over what i did because i feel so guilty and confused. i cant talk to my mom about it i can just talk to my boyfriend. i didn't want my family to know about it because they would just never forgive me. can you help me?thank you!
Hello,
I'm sorry to hear of your experience. Some of the things you are talking about have happened to other women. This is called post abortion stress syndrome (PASS) or just called post abortion trauma. I would be happy to talk to you more about this if you email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com. Hope to hear from you soon. You are not alone!
Sincerely,
Diane Cheryl
