suavojr, I can't say that I've "overcome" being shunned, but I have learned to accept it and deal with it.
I think it's also important to get some clarity on the situation. For one, I didn't leave my family and friends. I quit attending meetings at the KH and they subsequently left me.
Although I don't like it and definitely wish they would be different, it makes a difference to place the blame for the relationships ending where it belongs, on them.
A few years ago I supposedly had 8 million friends "closer than a brother." Now I know that was never really true. My circle of friends is significantly smaller and two of my own children won't talk to me simply because I don't follow seven small-minded, delusional fools in Brooklyn.
But I know this: the people that are my family and friends now love me for WHO I am, and not WHAT I (pretend to) believe.
Counseling helps. Try it.
