    Welcome GloomySunday ! My way of thinking was almost like yours. Something doesn't feel right. the rulled of not having "wordly friends" is just nor right

    That leaded me to depression. But I found my way out of that dark moments with education !!

    Welcome to the fourm. So many new ones. I am happy you never got baptized. This will make life so much easier for you. Depression seems to be the main theme in the Wt. Cult. Getting away from does help alot. Thank you for sharing your story with us. Take care. Totally ADD

    Glad you never dedicated yourself to the organization!

    Lucky for you, your father didn't give in to joining the org. too. Seems when one parent is out, it leaves a door or window open for many of the children to think themselves out also.

    Many best wishes!

    Gloomy Sunday - Welcome!

    I am pretty new here too.. I had a lot of questions while i took up study too. Never heartfully felt those were answered. But thank God i took up Bible studies when i had a Good job and independent! Plus my mom is not from this religion - hence even i will fade / DF, i will never fear of her cutting me off from her life, as there is NO DISFELLOWSHIP in any other religion in this world! :D

    All the best!

    Welcome Gloomy!

    I am new here too...I am sometimes so JEALOUS of those who never "crossed over" and got baptized..

    But the way I hear it now- the rhetoric has gotten fairly "evil" regarding even inactive JWs... good for you that you were able to make the separation.

    BL
