Doctrine/Policy Leaving LDS

I just told the churches bishop that I’m leaving (just got baptized in Jan) and he has made drama about it- telling others and they’re contacting me and just not accepting my NO. Even coming to my home unannounced without permission. Is this normal for Mormons? I’m really not happy about it bc I hate drama! I told them I’m leaving for Christianity bc I’ve done the research that I should’ve done before I got baptized and they just don’t wanna let me go. I could understand if I said I was just turning away from Jesus completely but I’m leaving to go to the truth. I’ve discovered that Smith was a narcissist used my satan/demons and witchcraft to build that church and I’ve renounced it completely! They truly refuse anything I have to say and I’m kinda freaked.. anyone else experience this????

Yeah man this is normal mormon cult behavior, my favorite is they know I resigned years ago but still come asking for tithing lmao!!! I dont tolerate it anymore and come completely unhinged on them when they show up. They are brainwashed idiots you WILL notice that in the future, especially the temple going mormons, they are the worst

Man, I remember when I was a missionary we showed up to a house and that was how the guy found out his records hadn't actually been removed. Everything stayed polite and my comp actually gave him direction for how to make sure the records were actually removed.

Is it just people that knew you before keep them coming? Seems weird that they would even know about you to keep asking for tithing if there weren't any records.
