So, you've had an abortion...
Think you're alone?
Think again.
Post-Abortion Stress Syndrome (PASS)
By age 45, 1 out of every 2.5 women in the United States has had at least one abortion!*
Who are these women? They are single women, married women and divorced women. They are your sisters, your cousins, your aunts, your mothers, your neighbors, your co-workers, your schoolmates, they are women you see every day when you go out into the world. These women come from all different age groups, races, socio-economic levels and religions. So with all these women undergoing this common medical procedure, why isn't there more support for women after an abortion, to discuss their experience? Why so few support groups to talk about your physical and emotional issues afterwards? The fear of political or religious backlash, and the fear of negative reactions from friends or family keeps most women from discussing anything they feel after their abortion. This website provides a neutral, non-political, non-religion based, non-judgmental place for women to communicate with each other after an abortion.
How you feel after an abortion should not be a 'political' or 'religious' issue - if you have a need for support, or emotional or physical problems, they should be treated just like the issues with any other medical procedure.
The site was created by a woman who dealt with her own abortion and wanted to reach out to others and help them through the recovery process, too. It's an excellent site and has lots of information and offers support through message boards and chat rooms.
