xjw_b12, I actually feel a lot better, I am glad I went. I feel stronger, more confident. Usually, when I see Jws in public I go out of my way to avoid them. As Nos said: I faced my fear head on.
I didn't feel guilty for not attending meetings or nervous about seeing my former friends.
I guess my next goal to work for is actually telling my family I will never be a part of that religion again.
