    Dear soafaloaf:

    You are feeling “intense regret and sadness”. You yearn for another pregnancy.  You want to let go of the decision that was already made, to abort but you are stuck, I suppose.

    You wrote: “I don’t want my partner to suffer any more”.

    My input: abortion, lots of people feel so intensely about it. I didn’t experience all the feelings about it that others experience but I did experience suffering and witnessed lots of in others who often pass it on.

    I believe suffering should be minimized, and so, I hope you minimize your own and your partner’s suffering, no longer engaging in “behaviour patterns that are self – destructive” and no longer “taking out all (your) anger and frustration on him”

    Dear Soafaloaf,

     

    You are not alone. I had an abortion about 20 years ago. I was plagued with feelings of regret and sadness for many years. I, too thought about getting pregnant again but I knew that another child would never replace my first pregnancy. I decided to seek counseling about 5 years after my decision.

    Over time and with help, I forgave myself. I realized that at the time, I thought I was making the right decision at the time.  I hope you find what you need to feel at peace and whole. Sending you love and light,

    Raven Haired
