OTWO,
I think that the situation is slightly different for those who are born in. I was raised and inculcated in the religion. I believed it hook, line and sinker. When I found out it was all a lie, I had to do more than grieve. I had to completely reevaluate EVERYTHING that I ever thought was true.
I did my best to start with a clean slate, but there have been challenges along the way. In depth conversations with you and others on this forum have helped immensely. Yes, I agree, this is a great place to find support.
Thank you for your support and friendship.
JK
