tee,
Welcome to About Catholics.

I am saddened to hear that you have not been treated very well by priests. <img decoding=” title=”Sad” /> I did some research and almost all of the abuse support groups that deal with Catholic priests are sexual abuse support groups. It doesn’t sound like this is what you are looking for.

I checked into Faith in Action[/url:1dar8cez] and they seem to be more of a charity group that support group, but there might be more to them than what I saw.

I found this site that might help: http://www.oncecatholic.org/help.html
It looks like you should be able to use it to find some local support groups dealing with any kind of abuse or qualms with the Church. I hope it is useful for you.

If none of that works I would suggest trying to meet with your local bishop and see if he knows of any support groups.

Also, if you would like you can express yourself here. I am not a therapist of any nature (and perhaps you are not looking for one) but we are here to listen.

I hope and pray that you will find a solution. <img decoding=” title=”Smile” />
