Abortion Stress
It
is very common for women (and indeed men) to suffer emotional
stress following an abortion. All too often teens and adults
suffer in silence about the depressions and hopelessness
that they feel. This is needless to say an unrewarding way
to live. BUT THERE IS HOPE AND THERE IS HELP. If you have
had an abortion or know someone that has had an abortion
and are dealing with the sadness and guilt that accompanies
that, contact us for compassionate help.
From
a past abortion many women experience the following:
-
Confused
thoughts
-
Frequent
crying
-
Feelings
of isolation
-
Sadness,
grief, remorse
-
Fear
of another pregnancy
-
Guilt
and Anxiety
-
Recurring
nightmares
-
Anger,
bitterness, resentment
-
Fear
of others finding out
-
Distrust
and feelings of betrayal
-
Sexual
problems
-
Marital
problems
-
Thoughts
of suicide
They
don’t have to suffer this way the rest of their life.
If you or a friend has had an abortion help is available.
Many women have
-
Found
understanding as to why they are hurting
-
Learned
to forgive others
-
Resolved
their emotional conflicts
-
Found
lasting peace
This
healing is accomplished through a course, averaging one
class a week for about 10 weeks. This course is used throughout
the United States in hundreds of pregnancy and women’s
health care centers. The course is lead by a woman who has
had an abortion, taken the course herself and is experienced
in leading such a course.
Don’t
suffer in silence. The next classes will start in September
2004. No fees are charged. Contact the Center at 830-792-5644
for specific time, dates and location. Your call will be
held in the strictest of confidence.
