    Im 19 and Im still going to meetings.Ive been sort of unhappy for a while.My older sister left the truth about 9 or 10 years ago.My brother was on her heels a couple of years later.Ive been told that they were weak,selfish,posessed and drug addicts.I knew this wasnt true,they were both brilliant and caring of me.I havent spoken to them in at least 3 years.Alot of gossip still circulates about them,especially Sarah.She intimidated everybody and I suppose this is how they feel superior.

    Im rambling,sorry.Im just overwhelmed.I ran into Sarah at a Walmart and she was radiant.I chatted her ear off for an hour and she hugged me when I cried.I told her I wanted out,that I know something isnt right but I m so SCARED.She suggested some of teh online groups to help.I guess she went to Thomschat but thats not there anymore.She said my struggle would be different than hers because she never believed in the witnesses.I did.Any advice or books to read or whatever you suggest,I just want to learn.She said Crisis of Conscience would probably help.Okay thanks.

    Wow Welcome to JWD Firefox.

    That's so great that you were able to have an honest and open convo with your sister, im sure she will be a great source of support as you work things out for yourself.

    I hope this board helps you also, i know it has helped me a great deal in my awakening and subsequent exit for the jws.

    Hi Firefox! So glad you found this place.

    I don't know who your sister is, but you are more than welcome to share your journey with us.

    Someone was kind enough to loan me Crisis of Conscience and I found it quite beneficial to read when I was ready.

    All the best with your situation,

    SPAZ

    Welcome, firefox. I hope you find some of what you are looking for here. While some of the discussion can become spirited, this has been a great place to learn there is life outside of the WTS.

    Incubus hasn't posted here in more than 4 years. She is disguised as a man, based on her avatar, and posted only 4 times in December 2003.
