    Since many of us have been coming to this board for a while and have gotten to know each other, some may have forgotten about our JW stories of how we all got here. Why dont we all pick one or two important posts from our past, that either we wrote as our introduction, or that someone else wrote that helped you. It would be great to be refreshed of all your stories.

    provide the link to it below:

    Here's the letter I wrote to my parents after I left that I finally got the guts to post here

    I was engaged to a ministerial servant and a regular pioneer shortly before everything happened.

    Nice Job... a ministerial servant ... and a regular pioneer - at the same time? Busy busy girl! I know, I know,,, just kidding.

    So I read your story. Very inspiring. Who is this Carrie person?

    My parents kicked me out of their home 3 years ago when I started to question things. I was engaged to a ministerial servant and a regular pioneer shortly before everything happened. Although I haven't been DA'd or DF'd I have been labeled an "apostate." Up untill recently I have had NO relationship with my parents. My mother wrote me a letter recently asking me to repent and come back to Jehovah. I responded with the following letter. Her heart was softened and we have begun rebuilding our relationship. I'm posting this in it's entirety with nothing edited. I hope it may help some of you who are estranged from your family.

    My situation is similar to yours (Flash's profile). I am waiting for the day when my children and my friends realise that God doesn't expect them to surrender their brains to men (no matter how spirit-directed) and that it's NOT a sin to think criticaly.

    Thanks for resurrecting that post......besides my shotguns shootout thread which is five parts the thread which affected me most was reading Mimilly's thread. It convinced me beyond a shadow of a doubt that the WTBTS is a harmful cult and can transform caring men into dangerous threats to society...

    It also showed the group effect of peer pressure in a situation where men believe they are doing gods work and how it can even convince them they are under demon attack when there is none...except for what untrained individuals perceive to be demons..

    These stories are so moving... thank you so much for sharing them. I really appreciate this forum and the support shown. Although I left 15 years ago it was not until I found this forum that I really allowed myself to think about the hell I went through leaving the JW?s. I have been through the mill emotionally in the last few months coming to terms with it all.

    Thanks again for all your support,
