depression after abortion happens to 99.9% of people who have had convenience abortions and THEN TALK ABOUT BEING DEPRESSED. There are people who have abortions and never really think about it in those terms ever. You might not like the way that sounds, but it's true.
I have to disagree with you. I've met more than a few women who've had them and regretted them bitterly. I do think that a lot of women who've had abortions because the boyfriend wanted it or because it got in the way of their career do regret it later on (esp. if they go on to have other children).
Forty-eight percent of the women who had miscarriages suffered distress at the ten-day period versus 30 percent of those who aborted. However, the ones who had miscarriages dropped to 23 percent after six months and to 2.6 percent after five years.Of the women who had abortions 26 percent were still suffering grief, guilt, depression, shame and denial at six months. After five years 20 percent were still distressed.
