I had an abortion

1999 United States (nato/a a United States)

disappointed irresponsible numb relieved angry guilty

Again I felt all sorts of things but just checked off the ones that were there at the time.

in a clinic or hospital with surgery

It was rough, at first, and I had an unexpected person by my side, my father. He took me and back and even got us a hotel room, wow the details are now coming to my mind, like it happend yesterday.

financial issues my age (too young or old) my personal reasons for not wanting a child

All these feeling are now coming back to me. I was 20 at the time. The obvious reasons to have one was the simple fact that I felt too young to take care of a child. I wanted to continue my education and I wasn't ready to have one.

L'illegalità del suo aborto ha influenzato i suoi sentimenti?

Come hanno reagito le altre persone al suo aborto?

Well 1st of all I just found this site and I'm glad I found it. After all these years I can finally express myself the way I want to with out being judged like I was back then.
