In a few of the exmormon groups I’m in you’ll see regular posts saying stuff like “Look what my lawyer sent me today!” with a pic of their resignation confirmation letter from the church. You know. Just stuff that a normal average church that is definitely not actually a cult would do. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ As an ex-mormon, I’m gonna look the fuck into this. I want nothing to do with the church that shaped so much toxicity about my self image and my sexual orientation. Not sure if any followers need this but if you do, here you go. Everyone should be able to choose their religious beliefs and community, and leave any that they find does not work for them. Ex mormon here - this guy’s legit. The Mormon holds your files for eternity, and when they find out that you’ve moved to a new area, they will send members and missionaries from that region to harass you. I know this sounds like dystopic bullshit, but they followed my father through three moves before he rejoined the church. Also ex mormon here who used this. It’s a ridiculously helpful service that is incredibly easy to use. They keep you updated throughout the whole process, and it’s totally worth it since the church doesn’t get to keep all your private information and pass it around once you resign :) ive rb’d this post before but i will every time i see it. I haven’t used it yet for Long Reasons but i will eventually and i know many people who have. Its legit and its FANTASTIC. the process can take months, but you don’t do any of the fighting. Doing it alone can take much longer, and you have to jump through 10 million hoops and suffer loads of guilt tripping, threats, and gaslighting. With quitmormon, you just fill out the paperwork, wait several months, and its done, no fuss or fight. The existence of this site means lots to me because it’s an easy escape route for other victims of this legitimate fucking cult. I’d super appreciate if y'all would help spread the word because millions of exmormons out there dont realize this is something they can do, and as long as the church has your records, they will continue to stalk and harass you for the rest of your life, even if you move ten times and never give them your new address. Is there a Jehovah’s Witness version? Just in case anyone needs it, I know it’s also really hard to leave them. I haven’t heard of one, but the ex-JW online community is full of tons of very helpful people. If anyone out there is trying to leave (escape, more accurately) the witnesses I’d recommend they look at some #exjw #ex-jw tags on tumblr and definitely ask on the r/ex-JW subreddit, I can pretty much guarantee they’ll get a very empathetic & supportive response from folks who have lived through it themselves. -- source link
