Hey sinners! Got space in your handbasket for me? :-)
I am 35. Have been gone since I was 22. Most of my family is behind, so the whole shunning thing is in play. Would love to find a community here!

  • hey amy lady,
    feel free to express anything here... we re good listeners....
    this tribe has been really slow this year... i let out as much as i could and now i feel more peace...
    even though you havent been in 'the truth' for a long while like a lot of us... stuff still comes up now and then. its always nice to have a bunch of people to hear you out... who understand.
    glad that you found us!

  • Hi Amy. You've certainly found a community here. I'm 31 and left when I was 20 so you've been out a couple years longer than me. I followed three of my seven older brothers out of the religion and recently one of my brothers left too, but the parents and those still trapped in the religion are practicing the whole shunning thing, although the parents have started backing off the shunning in the last couple years. I broke my neck two years ago and they went out to Nevada, picked me up and moved me in with them. I'm no longer living with them but every once in a while we talk.
