This general lack of acknowlegdement that not every woman who has an abortion keeps feeling 'relief' may lead women to bottle their emotions up, and not talk or think about how she is feeling. Her emotions may be repressed after the abortion, and the natural feelings of grief, loss or sadness she could feel might be 'stuffed', or denied. Women may be afraid to talk about it, may feel great shame about their abortion, and may not even realize that it is affecting them. Women are even afraid to talk about their abortion to their doctor or counselor. Some women do fine immediately after their abortion, then if they later have trouble with miscarriages or infertility, PASS may affect them.
Many women feel that miscarriages and infertility are 'punishment' for an abortion.
Most 'studies' report that women feel 'relief' after an abortion. That may be true initially, but fewer studies have been done on how women feel later. My studies are trying to help in that field of research. You can start with checking out the Healing Room, for ideas on how to recover. You can also check the message boards, where you can read what others are doing and feeling, and where you can talk about how you feel, and try coming to the chats.
