I was thinking it might be a good idea to come up with a website like happyexjws.com where we record a short video of ourselves saying we are now happy and briefly explaining why. Kind of like the atheist group who's members blaspheme against the holy spirit. Thoughts?
Are you a happy ex-JW?

I think that is a great idea! The WTBTS always loves to paint us apostates as bitter, resentful and angry. What a way to show them we are not.

Mindfulness aka poppers headspace in a workplace and community appears a pleasant proposition in which exJWs may be inclined to positively respond to that question. In theory!

I used to post on this board in the past as Pierced Angel and Lutece. I take breaks, mostly because I'm too busy with other things, but at first it was a great help to have this board and others to share experiences, etc. Anyway, I'm back, peeking my nose in to see what's up. Hello! To answer the question... I'm much happier and after several years I do not recognize my old self anymore. Having been a witness sort of embarrasses me, but I also feel protective of the old me. I feel it was part of my path, maybe to help heal others and be more tolerant and understanding. Freedom to think and live as I want has given me greater happiness than I ever imagined. I really feel sorry for my old buddies and also realize that we weren't that close after all. I haven't really missed anyone and have met some really great people who find it fascinating that I once belonged to a cult. A

I really cant recall WTBTS talking much about how apostates act, or there dispositions, just to avoid them and their lies....
By the way, I am pretty depressed since waking up, but I also happen to be:
Bitter, Resentful, Angry, and Frustrated!!!!!....oompa

When I told my mil that we had left, she said she was sorry I was so mad and upset. I don't where she got that. I have never been happier in my whole life!

I'm happy I'm an ex-jw.
Happy in general, thats a minute by minute day by day deal. It depends how deep the shxt I'm standing in is.
If I had more money and spent less time making it, I'm willing to be I would be happier.
