I am a 26 year old woman living in the uk. I have been an exmuslim for a while now, but have felt isolated as I grew up in a Muslim community in the uk most of my life. I'm still closeted and haven't told many people. Unfortunately I still pretend to be Muslim as the fear of judgement. I'm also queer which makes me feel even more alienated. My family are very conservative/fundamentalist and very religious. I have thankfully been able to escape home and have cut contact with some family members. But I'm still paranoid about accidentally seeing a relative or family friend or them finding out about me, and I still live in a city witha huge Muslim community. I want to join this organisation so I can connect with others in a similar situation to me, I believe it's important to amplify ex Muslim voices especially because it can be dangerous and hard to speak up and most of us end up isolated from our families and communities so creating our own communities is important.
