Nairaland / General / Should I Keep Attending Or Not Please Advice by Avareal: 2:00pm On Jan 10
Hi Everyone, goodday! my name is Ava, not real name, I created this account to seek sincere advice from you, please kindly read below.
I'm a part of a church community that I've been attending for some years.
Lately, I've started to feel very unwelcomed and ostracized there and it's really starting to take a toll on my mental health.
The reason I'm feeling ostracized is because of an incident that happened a few weeks ago. I had a disagreement with one of the other members of the church, and it got heated.Since then, the other members have been treating me differently and making me feel like an outcast.
Another reason why they treat me this way is because I'm very vocal about my beliefs and opinion on certain religious issues, I don't attend all their weekly and what not services and they see me as a rebellious and unrepentant church goer....
My husband wants me to continue attending the church because of his position and network there, but I'm not sure that's the best thing for me.I'm worried that if I try to talk to him about this he'll be upset and worried, infact he'll insist I keep going, but the truth is my mental health is consistently been given a huge blow each time I attend the church.

I'm really conflicted about what to do next. On the one hand, I know that my husband cares about me and wants what's best for me. On the other hand, I feel like continuing to attend this church is causing me a lot of distress and making me unhappy.
Can anyone offer any advice or support?
