I went to the retreat this past weekend, and oh my Lord. It was an amazing experience, but that isn’t what I wanted to thank you for. The night I called the abortion recovery helpline was the darkest place I’d been since my abortion…

Christina June shares her story about contacting H3Helpline:

I thought Planned Parenthood had the right plan, but they did not give me the full story. I had always heard the “blob of tissue” argument, but before I was scheduled I reached out to H3Helpline and was directed to a clinic that showed me the truth…

Help, Hope, and Healing After Abortion

June 27, 2025

Abortion is often portrayed as a decision that ends a difficult situation, but for many women, it’s the beginning of an emotional journey they didn’t expect. If you or someone you love is struggling with grief, guilt, or confusion after an abortion, please know this: you are not alone. Every story is unique, but one thing is true for many—after-abortion emotions can be real, deep, and sometimes overwhelming. The good news is that healing is possible. There is hope. And you don’t have to face it alone. You Are Not Alone It’s common to feel isolated after an abortion. You might find it hard to talk about what you’re going through, especially if others expected you to “move on” or “feel relieved.” But if your heart is heavy, your emotions are valid. Many women, and even men, carry the weight of abortion silently. Some struggle with sadness, anger, shame, or regret—sometimes years later. These feelings don’t mean you’re weak. They mean you're human. Healing Is a Journey There is no one-size-fits-all timeline for healing. Some people begin to process their experience shortly after an abortion, while others may not realize they need healing until months or even years have passed. Healing starts with acknowledging your feelings—without judgment. It continues by opening up to someone who understands, someone who will listen with compassion and care. You don’t have to live in silence or shame. There is a path forward. There Is Hope Hope comes from knowing that change is possible. It comes from the courage to take one small step toward healing. You can begin to rediscover peace. You can experience restoration—emotionally, spiritually, and even relationally. You are worthy of healing. And healing does not erase your past—it transforms it. Take the First Step If you’re hurting after an abortion, we are here for you. H3Helpline offers after abortion support and Help • Hope • Healing for the pain of abortion. Call H3Helpline and one of our Helpline Coaches will provide you with healing information. We believe healing is possible, and it starts with a conversation.
