I'm a nun
Yes..you read right..a nun. I've been a nun for 20 years. It was my dream to give my life to God. But a few yrs ago I suffered from clinical depression. It had nothing to do with the monastery. It was a personal matter. To make a long story short,I've decided that I need time away. To try and live in the world. Seems easy right? Wrong. My family won't support me at all and want nothing to do with the fact that I want to leave the monastery,even if it is temporary.I have money to my name as nuns don't keep money. So I'm basically trapped. I've asked friends for help..or even advice but they don't wanna help. So I'm stuck. Stuck because I'm totally alone in this. Stuck because I haven't lived in the world for 20 yrs so it's like I will need to learn how to walk again. Just like babies do. I don't think I can do this alone.. And what hurts is that no one understands.. Not a single person.
