Post Abortion Healing

Regardless of whether your abortion was weeks ago or decades ago, it may still be affecting you.

You Are Not Alone.

Many women believe that they are the only one they know who has had an abortion. Few people talk about it because of the shame and embarrassment they feel. As a result, many women and men are suffering in silence.

In reality, 1 in 4 women will have an abortion by age 45. While you are not alone, how you came to the decision to have an abortion is unique. First Care Pregnancy Center recognizes that your path for healing will be unique as well.

Check Your Symptoms

Your abortion may have been weeks ago or decades ago, but your abortion may still be affecting you. Below is a list of questions that can help you identify if you are struggling with a past abortion:

  • Are you depressed?
  • Have you experienced nightmares or flashbacks related to your abortion?
  • Do you feel like a “bad person” or a hypocrite because of your decision?
  • Do you have increased alcohol or drug use to help numb your feelings?
  • Have you experienced any self-harm, eating disorders or suicidal thoughts?
  • Do you have deep regrets about your abortion decision?
  • Do you struggle with guilt, shame or anger?
  • Are you keeping your abortion a secret, stuffing it away so you don’t have to deal with it?
  • Do you feel like God could never forgive you?

If you answered yes to any of the above questions, your abortion may still be affecting you. Please reach out to speak to one of our staff about your unique circumstances. All inquiries are confidential.

You Can Find Healing

Through our Conquerors program, you can find a safe, non-judgmental, confidential place to begin the healing process, and work through your abortion experiences. The program is led by women who have had abortions and can relate to your experience.

The Conquerors program offers healing through support groups or individual mentoring. The Conquerors group program is 9 weeks long with groups held in locations around the Twin Cities and Rochester. Mentoring is available to individuals or couples who are struggling with their past decision.
