## Caption

“…In the weeks after, I felt absolutely miserable. I had such a negative self criticism. Even though I’m pro choice, I felt like I was terrible person for going through with it. I literally hated myself for even getting pregnant in the first place. I buried myself in work and neglected everything, including my supportive partner. I didn’t tell anyone about any of this because I was so ashamed and guilty.

…Fortunately, I broke down in front of my partner and he helped me stabilize my emotions. After that weekend, I essentially started on a journey of self love and self care, which has been the most difficult and triggering thing I have ever done. But honestly, I’m very grateful and fortunate that my experience led me down that path.

Now, I am 27 and we got pregnant again. Because we are trying to sculpt our life to our liking, we have decided that now is not the right time to expand our family. So I have my second abortion scheduled in about a week. We talked about celebrating our abortion as a way to close a chapter in our life and appreciate the choice and privilege we have to make this decision.” 💛 #ShoutYourAbortion #abortion #aborto
