Post-Abortion

You may be feeling many things right now: relief, grief, guilt, confusion, guilt again, quiet shame, or just emptiness. Maybe you’re shocked by how much weight this feels like — even if, intellectually, you believed you made the right or necessary choice. It’s okay to feel all of this. And it’s even more okay to accept that this is something too heavy to carry alone.

One of the most healing decisions you can make is to reach out and seek support. A post-abortion support group can become a meaningful part of your healing journey.

If you have been on social media recently you may have seen a lot of buzz around the new Disney movie Encanto’s song “We don’t talk about Bruno.” It is a catchy song that reminded me of how there are some things that we just don’t talk about in society. Unfortunately, we have had many women say that’s how they felt regarding their abortion experience. Often, no one told them about all of the possible side effects, including the emotional side effects. That is why we wanted to take a moment to talk about the often-not-talked-about side of abortion.
