As they grow older, they increasingly experience mental anguish at having made the to-do abortion decision. Mental anguish can easily transfer or lead to certain treatable mental illnesses.
Oh, please. How do they know, honestly, that it’s the abortion and not the thousands of other things that happen in life? Again, there are many tangible reasons to hate abortion..this is not the argument to hang your hat on because it is so unprovable.
Question is is it women who are prone to mental problems that are having abortions or does the abortion cause the mental problems
The Culture of Death could care less about women's mental issues.
“More than 85 percent of women reported negative reactions to their abortions including sorrow, sadness, guilt, regret, grief and disappointment”
Oh, please? Seems like these mental issues would be apropos after aborting.
Abortion does create many mental issues. Check this website out.
It is for women who have experienced stress after an abortion. http://afterabortion.com/
What causes the other 15%
That's why some of these heartless beasts have late term abortions...
It’s probably because they have observed women they know who have had an abortion, and seen how their lives have been affected by it.
Girls who have abortions already have some issues..ok? Telling an 18 year old girl not to have an abortion because when she’s 40 she might have some mental issues is meaningless. That’s all I’m saying. It’s just not a good argument against abortion. There are so many good ones..this isn’t one of them..
it’s a ridiculous poll...it’s really the 85% of the 100% of the women who ADMITTED having an abortion, say they had adverse effects. People who still want to talk about their abortions years later probably had many issues to begin with and an abortion is a very convenient thing to blame your problems on. That’s all.

Good question and one I’ve wondered many times.It would seem those not as strong to stand up for what they wanted could be more easily convinced to abort than someone who was more balanced and knew what they wanted?
Considerable guilt can weigh heavily on one’s mind.
They need to repent and seek forgiveness for what they did.
The converse is also true.
