ProcessingMormonism

Did anyone else feel so self conscious as a teenager because God and his angels were supposedly always watching? For me, it significantly intensified the scrupulosity that I developed. It made me self conscious of every thought and every action.

What was one of your 'late bloomer' moments after leaving the church?

Teaching is not enough. It must be followed up with action.

Make bishops mandatory reporters.
Do background checks for all children and youth leaders.
Staff the helpline with victim advocates.

Anyone else have those brief moments of panic wondering if the church is actually true?

Thankfully, I've found they occur less and less over time as I weed out the indoctrination. Now all it takes is a quick reminder of why I left and the panic subsides.

What generational messages are you changing?

I spent too much time waiting for "blessings" while scrupulously living the commandments.

I'm so glad to be out of that mindset.

Happy Sunday! What are you doing instead of going to church?

There is a new show on Bravo coming soon called Surviving Mormonism by Heather Gay. Sadly, latter-day saints are already making fun of religious trauma using the tag #survivingmormonism . Anyone else planning to watch the show?

Unless you are not cis or straight.
Unless you have a time demanding calling.
Unless a child leaves the faith.

Unless, unless, unless...always an asterisk with the teachings of the church.

There are some wonderful bishops out there, but bishops are not therapists (with a few exceptions).
