I'VE HAD AN ABORTION IN THE PAST

If you've had an abortion in the past, you may be suffering from physical or emotional consequences as a result.

This is a common problem, even for women who had an abortion many years ago.

If you are suffering from any of the following problems, they may be related to a past abortion:

Guilt
Depression/suicidal thoughts
Feeling numb
Flashbacks
Anxiety/panic attacks
Low self-esteem
Aversion to children/mothers
Relationship problems
Fears about infertility
Eating disorders

These problems, when caused by an abortion, are collectively known (amongst other terms) as Post Abortion Syndrome (see our page for more information). To address these problems, you may need help to deal with them and their roots.

The team at Forsaken are available to support you if you need help recovering from an abortion. Please see their dedicated Help page for more information.
