A woman who had an abortion by pill talks about how powerful it made her feel:
“For weeks after the abortion I would turn to my husband at random moments to say, “I know this is strange, but I feel like the abortion was a good experience.” I felt so strong. Unwanted pregnancy is something that every sexually active woman fears. I had to face that fear and, in the process, reached deep within myself to evaluate my beliefs, my priorities and the value of life. I didn’t expect such strength to emerge after the abortion…
Not only is abortion a psychologically benign procedure, but women who have had one abortion have higher overall self–esteem than women who bring an unwanted pregnancy to term…
RU-486 made my abortion experience less stressful, almost enjoyable… I spent the afternoon with my body, in the privacy of my own home, regaining power.”

This ‘power’ she feels is from the evil powers that be that wish to destroy her. This is giving her a FALSE sense of control.
