    I've never been described as "normal". I'm glad for that. It sounds boring.

    I was f'd up before I joined the JWs, I was really f'd up during my time with the JWs, now I back to my previous f'd up level, which is normal for me.

    Lonely Sheep, are you admitting to being "weird"?

    Lonelysheep is it the WTS that robbed you of your confidence and how exactly did they do that? How can it be resolved by removing the root causes of low confidence that they put in their members?

    They stole what little bit I had. It's back but not quite where I want it to be. I am around a lot of overconfident people 10 hours a day, though.

    Would You Now Consider Yourself "Normal" Since You're "Out"?

    Yes - but my definition of normal might be 180* from someone else. Perhaps it was better defined in the thread - I only looked at the question.

    or are you still grossly affected because you were once a JW?

    I dont think anyone is normal. There is no one else I would want to be like. And I doubt anyone else would want to be like me. Damaged and I like it. eccentric

    What's 'normal'?????

    Why do I have this feeling that I don't want to be normal

    and that 'normal' is mediocricy????

    Hmmmmm....thinking I may have mispelled mediocrisy..

    .nope that doesn't look right either.

    If 'normal' means NOT being smarter than THOSE WHO DON'T HAVE THE TRUTH...then...

    yup....I feel normal
