"I`m a war veteran returned home but have Combat PTSD and called my local LDS chu"

A review of Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints by Mark written on Saturday 30th of August 2014

I suffer from Combat PTSD, Complex Trauma and I`m agoraphobic.

I am unfit for work until 2019.

The social work dept and a few agencies asked me to contact my church for short-term help with everyday tasks. This I did a MONTH ago and have head NOTHING back and I am in a worse state as a direct result of the LDS Church, of which I`ve been a member for DECADES.

It takes time for the government to act and so I asked my local church for help. On the phone they sounded good but in reality because I cannot attend the church I have been forgotten.

For over 10 years they happily accepted 10% of my Captain`s salary, £46,575, but when I need their practical help (not financial as I have savings) they don`t even bother to do anything???

I am shocked at my church and I am not alone in this as my Dr, Consultant Psychiatrist, Social work dept and Edinburgh City Council are also shocked by there uncaring attitude.

From an INSIDE perspective I know that if you attend and participate then you`re welcome but if you`re ill or unable to attend then you`re not welcome. Moreover they like to accept your money but when you need practical help and could use the £3000 per month on this the LDS Church will take it and give you no help. .
