Men tend to get lost in the shuffle when speaking about abortion experiences. But if your partner or someone you love has had an abortion, you may find yourself struggling, too. These feelings are intensified if you played a role in the pregnancy decision.
It can be challenging to speak about your abortion experience when you’re a guy. Many men feel uncomfortable sharing this experience out of fear of being judged.
Choices provides a safe, non-judgmental environment for you to share your story openly and honestly. Here, you won’t be questioned or shamed. We want you to find healing.
You deserve support; your feelings, whether they’re grief, confusion, depression, or anything in between, are valid. We’re here to help and offer the resources you need.
Reflecting on Your Experience
As you reflect on your experience, asking the following questions may help:
- Did I have any influence on her decision?
- Was my opinion considered?
- What is my current relationship with this partner?
- Do I regret my participation in the abortion decision?
- I’m not struggling—but I see her struggling. How can I support her?
Asking yourself these questions isn’t easy, but they’re necessary. Confronting these difficult subjects can help you find clarity and healing.
Choices has the after-abortion services you need to move forward.
