and after you've been taught to wait for the 'real life' thats coming next, if you leave jws still believing that, theres the thing i can only describe as walking dead syndrome.
you now know you've blown your chances for the 'real life' and youre expecting to be vaddoomed any minute to finish off whats left of the one you've got.
so theres the possibility you get stuck in the whats the point of doing this or that and catching up on some of the stuff you've missed because there doesnt seem much point if youre doomed.
it can take quite a while before you get your head round it, by which time theres a few more months/years down the pan.
i can't speak for anyone else, but it put me into a limbo for a while while i was waiting to die. i count my blessings that passed else i'd still be waiting.
