Welcome JLP ! I understand your pain and frustration, I've been out 14 years and some days it just smarts, really bad. Speaking with a professional counselor can be very helpful and I too agree with jgnat, find one your comfortable with ! In the interim, take comfort in the fact that here, you are amongst friends who really and truly know that pain that you've endured and empathize. Welcome, welcome ! ~ f et l

Greetings, Jean-Luc!!
How's Data?
Just kidding!!
But welcome to the board! There are many people here going thru situations similar to yours. Maybe their experiences will help you; at any rate and as others have stated, this is a good place to vent.
Also - I run into the same thing with my current hubby, who was never a Witness and has had almost no experience with them - if they haven't been in it, they can't fully understand what you've gone through and are still going through...
I wish you all the best; at least you're free even if your mum isn't. Treasure your freedom and rejoice in the fact that any children you may have now, WON'T be dragged into that cult!!
