Study is totally BS... my sis and her colleagues quit their jobs at a post-abortion clinic because of the state the teens and women were exhibiting sometimes weeks after the abortion.
Some of the same folks who turned homosexuality from a disorder into a “normal” state. Dumbing psychology and mental health down is so common these days. Everyone (and anything they do) has to be okay....
Abortion not linked to pregnancy or the death of fetuses - Reuters.
Robert Blum
Professor
William H. Gates Sr. Chair, Department of Population, Family & Reproductive Health
Dr. Blums research interests include adolescent sexuality...
Recently, he published a study in the American Journal of Public Health debunking the myths that race, income, and family structure can be major predictors of youth health risk behaviors.
For many years, Dr. Blum has served as a U.S. representative to the WHO. He has also served as a consultant to the Pan American Health Organization, World Bank, and UNICEF. He has been chair of the Alan Guttmacher Institute Board of Directors and was president of the Society for Adolescent Medicine. He also chaired the National Academy of Sciences' Committee on Adolescent Health and Development from 2001 to 2005.
I wonder how they define “high-quality” studies. Are Christian studies automatically excluded?
Abortion not seen linked with depression.
It's only linked with cold-blooded murder. No issues there.
God help us.
.
Ahem, excuse me, but. Who says psychiatry understands anything about depression?
Of course they are going to put out studies like this, they are now on the brink of unrestricted murder.
So my best friend’s distraught calls in the middle of the night never happened. Got it.
Mental illness risk rises 30 per cent for women who have abortions
Take a gander at this - ping!
I know three women my age who had abortions when they were young. One is a committed liberal who rationalizes the embryo was “just a bunch of cells”. She doesn’t talk about it much and now has two kids.
The other two women are serious alcoholics. One of them, end stage.
Frankly, it goes against common sense to think there isn’t a post-procedure effect on mental health in most women. There’s certainly an agenda at work in these “findings” and it isn’t in favor of life.
The researchers should visit http://www.afterabortion.com/ to reconsider whether or not PAS is real or not.
"Doctor" Robert Blum, an unethical and dishonest public health functionary of the political sinkhole formerly known as the Johns Hopkins school of public health, has been enthusiastically seeking to maximize abortions for teenage girls since at least 2004. He is a political hack who would make Lysenko blush.
Twenty years ago SurgeonGeneral Koop said more research was necessary, and he was probably right at the time. Now there is more good empirical research documenting post abortion trauma today than there is for global warming.
The worst part of these lies is the harm they do to women already harmed and betrayed, by disenfranchising them from their grief. They are told their anguish is illegitimate and they should just get over it and move on. This is an obscene perversion of science, turning its mantle of respectability into a figleaf for depravity.
“Abortion not seen linked with depression”
Really. Do they measure the post-abortion mental health of the unborn baby who is killed?
The only safe abortion is an abortion that fails.
