Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

really good actually...in the end we didnt go in with her...and I was so worried at the start....Im the only one whos had any kind of counselling so the others were a bit freaked out about it especially my friend whos pregnant...she was shaking and looked terrified before going in...I practically had to drag her and if it wasnt for me it wouldnt have happened. But...she is going again next week...the counsellor was great with her...really put her at ease...and made her feel so much better about the whole thing. She said she's so grateful for me taking her there and so i felt loads better after that...Ive felt a bit like the pushy friend recently...wanting to get professional help and all that...the others havent been as much so as me....which is why I know if I'd have left it to anyone else she'd have never have gone. She is going to keep going after the abortion has happened, shes got appointments lined up...so atleast she will be able to deal with whats happened properly. I know its still going to be extremely hard...but I know shes getting proper help now and hopefully she'll be on the road to recovery and back to her fun loving self soon. This has been a huge wake up call to her I think in terms of everything in her life. Shes finding it very hard breaking up with her boyfriend and when we went for a meal for the birthday yesterday she did break down afterwards and didnt want my friend whos birthday it was see her like that. Its heartbreaking watching her deal with heartbreak like this....cos she is such a vunerable and insecure person as it is. I think gradually things are going to get better...she knows its all a matter of time....

Thanks for asking...hope things are all going well with you.....
