Something that has carried with me ever since.

egoistisch opgelucht verdoofd verlicht verward twijfel zeker schuldig angstig verdrietig

a feeling of knowing I had to do this, but still tittering on the fence of wanting to love a child that was my own. An odd mixture of emotions.

met medicijnen zelf gedaan

I thought it was going to be less invasive, and less cold with surgical tools. But somehow, taking the pill at home, basically alone(mother in another room) it felt more alone than anything. Almost worse than what I thought it would feel like in a medical office.

Had de illegaliteit van je abortus invloed op je gevoelens?

It was legal, in the state of California gaining access to an abortion is somewhat easier. But still with limitations, heavy payment, and low access to mental health associates for aftercare.

Hoe reageerden andere mensen op je abortus?

I have only shared my abortion story with close friends, my mother and father, and the father of the "child"(who hasn't shared any information with his family, and thats totally understandable).

legaal
