2007
Country of abortion: United States
My family members and close friends have been so supportive. Although I did lose a friendship.... Someone who I thought would be there for me turned her back on me in one of my darkest hours.... while i valued our friendship, I now realize that she never did care for my own well being.
Type of abortion: with medicines
Reason for abortion: financial issues, my age (too young or old), my personal reasons for not wanting a child
I had just started a new job, didn't have a boyfriend and got myself into a situation where having a baby would not only ruin my life but wasn't a reality.
Feelings about abortion: grieving, disappointed, irresponsible, selfish, angry, in doubt, stupid, ashamed, guilty, afraid, sad
I continue to struggle with the fact that I have ended my pregnancy. Sometime all I want is to have the baby back, but at the same time I know that I made the right decision, I feel that it will be a while before my feelings of grief and sadness will finally disappear. I only hope to help other women not feel ashamed for their decision.
Religion Christianity
