@jstoliker7 To add- it gets better. It’s terrifying at first, but the freedom I feel doesn’t compare to the shell of a person I was in the church. I am genuinely happier. I can think outside the box the church put me in. You’ve got this
@jstoliker7 My biggest suggestion- take your time and don’t rush decisions. There’s really no time frame for figuring everything out. You’re allowed to change your mind. (And yes, that also means going back to church if it feels right to you) and lastly you don’t owe anyone an explanation.

Ladies and gentleman! For perhaps the first time ever in history, the LDS church has been ahead of the curve! They cancelled church. The USA has yet to shut everything down. The church must be true, and Russell M Nelson is a prophet! #exmormon#mormon#lds
People who are upset about the honor code changes at BYU-Please remember to read up on the come follow me manual to adjust your attitudes as the Lord gives you additional revelation little by little! Just as he slowly allowed blacks to become full fledged members. #exmormon
