  Hello, I am Jehovah Witness and gay. I am from Puerto Rico. I would like to know how hard is to leave the organization. I need some help from people who did it.

  Thanks for your help.

  Welcome, Yosisoy... there is plenty of support and information here throughout the forum. You might want to re-think having your personal email on the public forum where spam bots can slam you... you can edit by clicking the pencil on the right of the thread title of your post.

  Welcome!

  Welcome. I agree with Baba...you need to take your personal email off this thread within 30 minutes of your posting. If anybody who can help you sees this, they can send you a pm (private message, which is the envelop at the top right, between your name & "logout"). Best wishes.

  For starters, read this story. It deeply moved me:

  The A Common Bond website is an excellent start. You'll find lots of help there from others exiting who are also gay. Take care.
