    I WAS SUFFERING FROM ANXIETY DISORDER WHEN I BECAME A JW. NOT ONLY DID I HAVE THAT PROBLEM BUT BEING A VIET NAM VET I WAS ALSO SUFFERING FROM PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder). NOW I CAN SEE WHY I MOVE UP SO FAST IN THE RANKS. BECAME A ELDER AT 29. I WAS A COMPLETE NUT CASE.

    its almost a year since my dfing and im still not back to normal...i had a breakdown at my jc meeting. Im hoping getting back will make me better. Not sure if the religion caused it or we living in sin caused it.

    Define "living in sin".

    If you mean a loving, consensual and committed relationship that had everything going for it except a piece of paper called a marriage certificate, then why would you think that was the problem?

    Since you only give two options are we to surmise that the answer is the other option?

    Yes, please do tell me more - you don't need to 'write a book'; the location and identities of the 'men in black' will do.

    I remember 9-11. I wanted to commit suicide because i thought it was the end. I was just coming back at the time and didnt talk to elders yet. I actually tried to get a gun. I was never doing enough. Im starting to see where my anxiety and paranoia come from.

    It seems that many of us had similar problems, with panic attacks etc, etc. No matter of our back round (social possition, country)

    I did had panic attacks for 2 years. It was the time when I realize that I was in lie called WATCHTOWER. My wife thought I'm crazy, turn me to the elders because I wasn't "good witness" and I had doubts.

    With Gods help, I overcome the problem, and I'm much better regarding the psycological factor. I was disfellowshiped for apostasy in 15th of January this year.

    This ended up my marriage, and I had to leave home. But no matter what I will never go back to that crazy, psycopathetic, doomsday cult. I have a life of my own, and I fight to make with the WT, so that I will get my 2 little daughters out of the hands of the most dangerous cult in the world
