My family keeps pressuring me to go to church

But everytime they do that I get more and more distant and it makes me feel “unworthy” which makes me suicidal…😔 I just wish they’d stop

I now have an agreement with my family, I go on Christmas Eve and that’s it. My nana always asks if I want to join her but there’s no pressure

I'm so sorry. I grew up that way. My heart goes out to you.

Which church?
GeistInTheMachine · 31-35, M
@Jokekilla Me either. It's religious abuse.

Your best bet is trying to get away from them the best you can and be as independent as possible. Easier said than done sometimes. But that is your path to freedom. Leverage whatever you can.

@GeistInTheMachine I’m sure they do it cause I like guys…😔 I already struggle with that issue myself I don’t need others saying I’m going to hell

@Jokekilla I really hope you get out of there!

Do you have a response when they tell you to go? Sometimes a planned response helps.
Jokekilla · 26-30, M
@HannahSky No because it catches me off guard, I just get upset

@Jokekilla it might be worth it for your own sake to have a response. Something that stops the convo but is respectful to your feelings.
Go to church... NAKED!
