No one should force you into any decision you don’t want to make. Any form of pressure to have an abortion is NOT ok.
If needed, remove yourself from the situation and talk in a safe place to learn what’s best for you. You deserve better and to decide for yourself.
The Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons shares that many of the women in their study who had an abortion felt at least subtly pressured into making the decision. Some of these women suffered psychological effects afterward, including feelings of:
- Shame
- Guilt
- Regret
- Self-hatred
- Worthlessness
- Being unworthy of love
- Low self-esteem
- Anxiety
