Hi there! I'm so sorry you're going through all of these emotions and feel unsupported. Abortions have the ability to cause major regret and depression in women, and it's not something you can go back on. I currently do abortion studies and every woman I've spoken to who has been through it has had major regret. I would really urge you to do research on how it happens, just to educate yourself. The regret comes from the fact that there is life inside of you, one that has begun to grow from the seeds of you. There is definitely a large chance of it affecting your health if you go through with it, and though it may be difficult, that child won't just be able to be erased. There are lots of resources I would love to help you with depending on where you're located, and also the possibility of adoption. Babies are a blessing, and things can be tough but abortion isn't the only option and both your mental health and your baby matter. If you'd like to send me a message, feel free and we can chat. No judgement here❤️
