The Witnesses still hover around us, like it or not.

Well said about this site!!! If we are still in the mind site today hat we are even here... aren't we to a degree? Obviously Im still not ok.... Today was the deadline to register to vote. I didn't. I didn't want to be party to a crime when one of them screws up later on. Ah ye ye.... I think it will take years, I'm only a year out of my dissasociation...

That has got to be one of the best illustrations I've ever heard - you get a G on "Illustrations to Fit Material"!

Sadly, no. Not even close. I thought I was doing pretty well but today an elder rang me and I was shaking for hours after. The conversation was mostly small-talk but he said something about wanting to say more to me but his wife had just returned so he'd call back later. My stomach has been churning all day because of this. I don't want my life to be about dreading the phone ringing but that's how it is right now. ARGH!
Just when I thought I was doing ok. . . And now I wonder if I'll ever get over the JW thing.

They have no control on me. Of Course being on this forum proves that I still think of them.
I am on the out side looking in now. I can see there stupid control techniques thanks to the people that post here.
I still have a few JWs as friends that I can count on one hand. Year after year that count goes down.
In fact I will be losing one of my friends very soon because of there no blood issue!!!!.Very sad!!! -

I have been inactive and not attending for 5 years. I won't let them control me. It's one of the reasons I left the organization - because I hate being controlled. I'm an independent thinker and straight shooter who did not fit in. I hate injustice , and my witness relatives know I will voice my opinion about it. Some of them actually respect me for that quality, some of my self -righteous relatives resent me for it. Can't be helped - I'm still gonna beat the drum

No, I don't think I will ever be free. My whole extended family is in. We keep all the drapes closed on the weekends and don't answer the phone. I am working on being mentally free, which is tough when you were a born-in. We are working on the kids so they aren't like us. They are still afraid to have a cupcake when there is birthday at school.
