Don't Go It Alone
It's scary to talk about an abortion experience with others. What if they don't understand? What if they condemn you, withdraw from you, or start acting weird whenever you're around?
These are all reasonable fears. We have them because it is important for all of us to see and feel that people around us care about us, love us, and understand us. So, we often hide the things about ourselves that we fear will drive people away. We put up a defensive wall, a fake persona, to protect us from the negative judgments of others.
That may be all right for short periods of time, but if that defensive wall becomes a permanent part of us it is no longer just a defense. It is a prison. It is a prison that keeps people from really knowing us. It is a prison that keeps us from fully experiencing the love and compassion of people who are willing to understand our abortion experience.
