it's important to examine the stereotypes we're scared of being smacked with - promiscuous, immoral, selfish, trashy, careless, even evil. I feel like my clients shouldn't look to me for guidance even 15 years from now because I can't even be responsible for me.īut.
#REDDIT SMASHING FOUR LICENSE#
I feel unqualified for my license to practice psychotherapy that I've earned earlier than many do. I feel ashamed that I've not used my privileged upbringing to make "better" choices. I feel guilty for putting my body through so much in a short time. I feel it's been a disservice to my daughter I've temporarily emotionally neglected her while doing damage control after we endured the chaos that is her father. Right now, under numbness, guilt and shame are tucked in tightly. I only told my best friend of 20 years about this a 2nd time. I got two positive tests ~12 days after the first time he got violent/the last day I spoke to him. The 2 subsequent pregnancies were unwanted and happened as result of desperately trying to "fix" the relationship with her now heroin addicted father. She was planned, and despite all the dysfunction our lives have been, I've never regretted it. I'm 23, just had my second MA in 6 months.

If you need anyone to talk to, feel free to message me. What you decide you want to do is the right decision. Don’t forget that you are only making the right decision for YOURSELF - no one else. They may try to convince you to start some form of birth control, but that’s entirely your decision and they most likely won’t push the issue. Also, no one in the clinic is going to be concerned with your business. Accidental pregnancies are way more common than spoken about. Things like this can happen and it’s alright.
It was the right thing for me at the time to do.Īfter a while, you end up realizing that those thoughts and feelings in the moment are pretty normal to experience, but are also unproductive and unnecessary. I’m going to be able to pay off my student debts and save up to have a kid when I’m financially ready. And I am so glad that I didn’t because my career is finally going places. Some guilt from all of the pro-life propaganda BS buzzed around in my brian and started to make me feel like I was obligated to keep it. I spent a lot of time blaming myself and feeling irresponsible, getting angry that I had “learned nothing from the first time”. I felt terrible when I found out I was pregnant for the second time, knowing that I wasn’t going to keep it. Yes, I’ve had 2 medical abortions within 2 years of each other.
