Abortion Recovery

Post-Abortion Care

​

Are you still thinking about an abortion you had? Do you have questions, like, “Am I the only one who feels this way?” or “Is it normal to have doubts about my abortion?” If you’re struggling with negative thoughts and feelings related to a past abortion, you’re not alone.

​

Post-abortion trauma can affect both women and men. This is usually a result of ongoing emotions, thoughts, or even physical problems following an abortion. Symptoms of post-abortion trauma can include:

​

• Guilt/Shame

• Grief/Loss

• Anxiety/Depression

• Anger

• Substance Abuse

• Changes in Relationships

• Hopelessness

• Low Self-Esteem/Self-Hatred

• Sadness

• Resentment

​

Every person has their own experience, which means that each individual is subject to a unique set of symptoms. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, or simply just need someone to talk to, we are here to help you begin a process towards hope and healing.
