Feelings of guilt, depression and loneliness after abortion

Feelings of guilt, depression and loneliness after abortion

My ex bf deceived me to terminate our baby. He told me that he will leave me if I continue my pregnancy do I had to sacrifice my own baby for him. The next day after the procedure, he left me with another girl. I had depression and panic attacked that week, I just couldn’t believed that someone can do that to me. I feel so guilty that I killed my own baby and every time I see babies, my heart hurts so bad. It feels that someone squeeze my heart so tight. I can’t help myself to cry each day and it’s getting hard now that I am supposed to have delivery next month. My excitement turns into depression ;( Anyone can give me advice?

@Gazza75 hi, I’m doing well 🙂 Thanks for checking on me. It’s really nice of you. At the moment, I’m coping well. I still feel sad everytime I see babies but I just acknowledge the pain and tried to look forward. I always pray for my babies soul. Cheers xx
