General Sex Questions
Do I need to talk to my counsellor about my abortion?
Acknowledge your experience whatever it may be and if you feel you need to; there are professionals who are genuinely here to help without judgement.
Every woman is unique in how she feels after an abortion. You are also not alone, about 42 million women worldwide have abortions each year. Remember that we make the best decision we can under the circumstances we are in.
Other parts of your life may be very stressful, your relationship, school, your job, your kids etc. Abortion may bring up old experiences or feelings you have been repressing. For instance, if sexual abuse is a part of your past, you may find yourself re-living feelings related to your abuse. Feeling vulnerable about the pregnancy and abortion may trigger you to remember a time in the past when you felt frightened and vulnerable.
If your feelings are overwhelming and do not seem to be resolving or you are suffering symptoms of depression, it is important to consult a professional.
