I am a 4th Generation. My father is a very loved elder and has been my WHOLE life. I am happily faded and married to my INCREDIBLE husband and we share an AWESOME teenage son with who is getting ready for college next year. EEEEK! My parents and sister, all still in the cult, still talk and associate with me and my family, although I don't know why and won't ask because all is good. I have been FREE and OUT for 25 years but was a PIMO my entire life, literally since 1st grade. I never liked being 'different' and 'weird' and all the stupid rules. But I wasn't interested in having a wild and crazy life, I just wanted to be 'normal'. When I finally left, I went to school, met my love, and started our family. Until last year, when Leah Remini had her book out, I bought it and read it in one night. Then started "waking up". I've been having a hard time only now, since I have realized that I have been lied to my whole life. I thought I just didn't like it or the lifestyle. Now I see more horrible things and I just can't believe I was raised like that! Anyhoo, I have always had the mindset that I am by myself and no one will understand me and now I see that there are millions out there just like me and I want to meet ya'll! Thanks for the opportunity of this short little bio and CHEERS! xoxo ~m
