Is It True That Since Leaving The JWs That You're Totally Angry & Unhappy?

The Watchtower tries to say that "apostates" are in a bedarkened environment. They are looking for "true freedom" which they say does not exist. We are said to be "gnashing our teeth" and angry. Does that describe you??

hahaha. well I guess you missed that lesson in the ministry school about being precise. Oh wait! they don't teach that one!

hmm. guess I missed it too...

LMAO!

Oh, btw, yes I'm quite broken up about leaving the JWs, I have a cloud of gloom and doom trailing behind me and I never EVER laugh or smile. And jokes? ~~god~~ Jehovah forbid.

I am FAR better off since leaving the bOrg. Far less stress and no more depression.

I am unhappy. I was happier before. But its not because of leaving.

Its because of the butlip i got myself stuck too!

I feel much, much better for being out of the JW org. And as I continue to root it and its effects out of my life, things continue to improve for me.

Unfortunately, however, even after leaving it, the org. has been a source of great unhappiness to me in the form of my hostile JW wife. (For instance, there's nothing quite like finding out that your wife has been telling your kids that you're a tool of Satan.)
