FIVE SIGNS YOU HAVE UNCHECKED ABORTION TRAUMA

After sitting with hundreds of women of all ages and all stages of life, it’s clear that we have one thing in common: pushing our inner self aside for the task at hand– sometimes we can move forward in life, and sometimes so we can better serve others. 

But what if being avoidant of our inner self is stifling us from moving forward and preventing us from being our true selves to the ones we love? 

HOPE has been a confidential, judgment-free presence for hundreds of women (and even some men) who have experienced abortion that has caused tremendous unchecked pain in his or her life. 

If you or someone close to you has experienced one abortion or many abortions in the past and want someone to talk to, we are an encouraging presence for you. We offer retreats and Bible studies that have made a profound impact on hundreds of lives.

This free assessment may help indicate how your past abortion(s) impact your life today: 

• Do you feel uncomfortable telling others about your abortion experience?
• Do you find yourself striving to prove that you are a good mother or a good person?
• Do you believe bad things have happened or will happen because of your abortion(s)?
• Have you engaged in self-punishing attitudes, behaviors, or addictions after having one or more abortions?
• Do you avoid situations, sights, and sounds that remind you of your abortion(s)?
• Has the way you view yourself as a woman changed since your abortion(s)?
• Do you believe you have unhealthy relationships or friendships with men?
• Do you ever feel alone in your emotional pain?

If you have answered “yes” to three or more of these questions, you may have some unresolved feelings about your medical or surgical abortion. Reach out to learn how our after-abortion services help women just like you work through these intense feelings confidentially with expert guides to help your body and heart begin to heal.
