Exmormonology Ep. 08 ~ Telling Family and Friends.
Deciding to tell friends and family about leaving the mormon church can really feel uncomfortable. VERY uncomfortable.
I know this is a huge piece of your mormon faith crisis process. This is why we stay in the closet for so long. We are afraid of hurting, disappointing, and upsetting our loved ones. Especially mom and grandma. We put this off part of our journey off, for a long as we can. At least most of us.
Once we can really digest that we never cause someone else’s feelings, it will become easier. If you are afraid to tell mom, or maybe you have, and she has told you how much pain you have caused her, it is her brain, with all of her thoughts and stories that are creating her pain. That may be a new concept to understand. This whole process is about you managing your mind and letting family and friends manage their own mind.
Let me walk you through a few scenarios in this week episode of Exmormonology.
