Positive experience of abortion after severe pregnancy sickness and poor mental health

I never thought I'd write on here about abortion but I just wanted to share my positive experience with it. I struggled for weeks with nausea and vomiting 24/7, I was no longer able to take care of my son and my mental health was at an all time low. I truly hated my life. I decided to get an abortion and 7 hours later I feel like a new woman, my sickness and nausea is gone and I'm finally starting to feel normal again. I wanted a second child but after this we will look into adoption. Just wanted to put something out there as I would've loved to see a post like this when I was deciding on what to do and to see that someone else felt like me.

Pregnancy is no joke, truly awful for people and I will never judge anyone when it comes to choices and pregnancy.

Sending love

I’m very sorry to hear you felt so unwell and needed to make what must have been an incredibly difficult decision.

I’m glad that everything has gone well for you today.

im so sorry you had to make this incredibly hard decision for something you wanted so much but I’m glad you found your light at the end of the tunnel. I am currently 21 weeks pregnant and I remember those rough early days you often feel like they’ll never end. Be kind to yourself always z
