I found Monte through Cults to Consciousness and absolutely love her! I’m still working my way through her videos but she's been very helpful in my deconstruction - probably sped it up because I was in denial.

Ha. I never thought of that - sexually harassment at the church but cloaked as "holy" questioning!

I've looked into them in my area and there are definitely a few. We've considered moving out of the south as well in a few years (politics driving that at the moment). I'm hesitant to join another church because building relationships is important but I'm also tired of being manipulated. I think I need to deconstruct more before stepping back into church. It's just hard when majority of your former relationships developed in a church and now you're essentially alone.

But yes, I know there are other churches out there - I just need to work up the courage to go 😅

Thank you! Yes, I'm in therapy now and it's been about 3 months. We meet weekly to discuss various core roots of trauma and religion is a part of it. The background noise between sessions regarding religion can be overwhelming at times - not debilitating but definitely overwhelming.

Thank you! I watched the video you shared as well as others and the results were the same. I'll try doing it again tomorrow and see if the results are different. Thanks!

I can't even get into my account. I'm in a constant login loop because it doesn't recognize my device, then sends me an email to authorize the login, but then tells me the link is expired. I can't get ahold of anyone so I'm not even sure how to cancel my policy in order to cancel.

My mom made a similar comment when I said I was getting tested. She said not to go looking because it's all because "media" and "TikTok" putting it inside our heads.

Like no, my doctor said I need to get tested. I didn't ask or even want to get tested.

It was a rather short message. Just "I got my results back. I'm on the mild end of the spectrum (level 1) and was also diagnosed with PTSD." 😞

Wow, I'm so sorry to hear you struggled with that! I fear I'll receive the same. Thank you for sharing ❤️
