My time of the end was from 1987 when I joined the JW's up to 1995 when the November watchtower changed the rules of the game, and redefined a generation.
So, when I refer to the time of the end, I think of the (1987-1995) period.

For me it was '66 to about '76 when a lot of people began to look at each other and say 'what tha f---'?
My personal "time of the end" was shortly after I quit attending... visions of demons and of fire raining from the sky haunted me. And I do mean visions literally here. Wide awake, eyes open, and saw firey molten stones hurtling to the earth. I could tell they weren't physical, so I didn't like, freak out externally or anything. But I did freak out a bit.
More or less the whole time I was a jw, until I did a bit of research and saw through the bs.
It started when I was very young as my parents continually told me the end was very close.
One day an elderly sister was cycling home when an amazingly dark cloud appeared on the horizon, this sister thought it was Armageddon starting - in fact it was just a thunderstorm!
My parents told me in 1973 when driving me to my new school that this would be my school until Armageddon! I believed them.
I would be a very mature student now wouldn't I?
In the late 1990s. I am embarrassed to admit this, but in 1997 when I first began to read about the Y2K danger, I seriously thought that this was going to be a global catastrophe.
