Pregnancy loss is an experience involving grief and pain. Such a loss, whatever the cause, miscarriage, still birth, infertility or an abortion is an ordeal which should not be ignored or denied.
Pregnancy Support Center provides resources to recovery to those struggling with healing through peer-counseling. For those who took part in their loss through elective abortion, the effects can be called Post-Abortion Stress Syndrome.
Post Abortion Stress Syndrome (PAS) is similar to post-traumatic stress disorder. The process of making an abortion choice, experiencing the procedure and living with the grief, pain and regret is certainly, at its very core, traumatic. As with any trauma, individuals often try to “forget” the ordeal and deny or ignore any pain that may result.
Pregnancy Support Center provides resources to aid in the after-abortion process.
