Woman uses drugs and alcohol to “numb the pain” after abortions

Jacqueline Middler had two abortions and is now pro-life. She wrote a book about the trauma her abortions caused her. She writes:

“Even though I’d kept that shame and deep pain locked away, it became a persistent part of my life. I turned to drugs and alcohol to numb the pain. But those superficial things didn’t erase the guilt I felt inside. The effects of choosing abortion lingered in my life, and subsequently, I made other poor choices as a result.”
