Post abortion syndrome.
While many would debate the very reality of Post Abortion Syndrome, the author of this article has experienced Post Abortion Syndrome first hand. Excerpted from a speech she gave before a Florida meeting of the National Organization of Episcopalians for Life (NOEL), the article outlines the various stages and symptoms of Post Abortion Syndrome: denial, repression, guilt, anxiety, depression. She then describes the process for healing and recovery, and presents a model for a Post Abortion support group which is patterned after Alcoholics Anonymous.
