From the article:

Choosing to end a pregnancy in abortion is not a decision that comes lightly to any woman...

Amazing that Sarah Prager has met each and every one of the millions of women that have had an abortion. How did she accomplish that feat? Also amazing how the lefties will assign a syndrome for every discomfort/mental quirk under the sun, but when it comes to abortion--nothing to see here, please move along.

Most likely because she has no soul.

There is no post-abortion syndrome

....17 percent report feelings of guilt.

And there are many who may feel sadness or grief about their decision


What a screwed up article. WTF??

There are 1.3 million abortions performed every year in this country and one in four American women has at least one abortion while reproductively active. For the most part, those women continue to lead their lives without suffering from that decision.

Translation: "I could not have been wrong, then..right?"

I know what she's feeling. And, regardless of all her private and public attempts at meliorating her own pain, I know what will be her final thought when she passes from this life. God help us all.

"76 percent of women report feeling relief after abortion while only 17 percent report feelings of guilt"

Let's see ... 40,000,000 (approx.) abortions in America since Roe vs. Wade ... equals 6,800,000 (17%) guilt ridden people, yet, not a one suffering long-term psychological problems.

Based on your attitude, you should be thrilled at that prospect.

Relief is fleeting. Guilt grows like a tumor from that moment forward. Ask the question on that day. Ask it again in 20 years.

I’m sure there are some who have some sort of regret or more once they abort. Many do not.

The following folks would beg to differ:

Georgette Forney -- founder of the Silent No More Awareness Campaign

Jennifer O'Neill -- Actress and spokeswoman for the Silent No More Awareness Campaign

Dr. Theresa and Dr. Kevin Burke, who run Rachel's Vineyards healing weekends. Though they only have PhD's, they specialize in Post-Abortion trauma...

WOW!!!

They have actually managed to prove a negative!!!

Our best scientists can not prove that Santa Claus does not exist but they can prove that no form of PTSD is related to abortion.

My word, I am impressed! /s

In other words, what’s the big deal? It’s just another form of birth control. But the sad truth is that abortion is murder and you have to live with that for the rest of your life.

If its so great for the psyche, then maybe we should prescribe getting pregnant in order to have an abortion.
