Some days it helps not to think about it

I had decided that I was too young and not mentally ready for a baby.

The abortion itself was painful and afterward, I just cried.

It didn’t affect anyone really because only my mother and sister knew and said that whatever I decided, they were with me.

Some days it helps to think about it and some days it helps not to think about it.

It made me think more about girls getting abortions, but it hasn’t really changed my life.
