Unstop,
Take a pause, take a deep breath and know that we are here for you, Our Lord is here for you and will give you all the strength you need if you ask him.
We do not know what the future holds for any of us, bad things do happen to good people, but follow your heart and temper it with love and whatever may happen, your consience will be clear.
It's ok to "give a little" too, you don't always have to butt heads and remember that you can't force ANYONE do do anything.
Not believing in the JW's is not the same as not believing in Christ and God and your marriage, remember that the less you are there for your wife, the less she will feel you are there for her. Let love guide you my friend.

Don't look at it as suffering dude, this is your wide, youlove her and with love comes support and you are supporting her.
Love is never angry, never judges, love is patient, it always protects, it always trusts it always hopes and if itis hared by two people, it always preservers.
You don't know what will happen, but by following your love, you at least, will take comfort in your heart that you did all you could, as long as you DO all you can out of love.

Hey unstopableravens!
For many of us here the exiting process had times of very intense stress. For a time I suffered PTSD, but am now in a much better place.
It is very hard transitioning from one worldview for another - much like a death, a divorce, a sex-change, or even a hemispherical lobotomy.
At any rate one is replacing the bad with the good.
So the outcome will be better.
Please fight hard to get enough exercise, rest, relaxation, counselling, socialising, and nutrition.
You are a winner!
Greetings and blessings
Fernando

I am out 45 years! Still married to my pioneer partner LOL. Still being shunned by my one surviving cousin who's an uber JW. I commend you for realizing the truth about the truth.
I do enjoy reading your posts and while I have been long gone from the 'truth' I still know and care about what you are going through .....................even though you are a pesky believer!
Right now you are grieving for family and former friends. You are no longer being validated by the congregation. It's a stressful time. Remember while you are no longer a captive of that belief system you are still the same kind and gentle person and for what it's worth.............. you have proven yourself a valid person to us EX's.
