Thanks but no thanks. During the time my wife and me was watching the episode I had a horrible body memory from my past abuse. I was doing alright until Romy started relating her story on how her abuser threaten her with death. The same happen to me as a child. It took everything I had not to go outside and scream at the top of my lungs. I was up most of the night. The next day it took most of the day reasoning out in my mind that I cannot be hurt by this guy again. My dear wife was very supportive of what I was going through but this was my battle and this experience has taught me a few things. First it is still part of my psyche and second I am a survivor and I will never allow this cult to harm me again. Here I am turning 64 this Wednesday and what this asshole did to me still affects my life. I feel for what Romy went through. Another brave survivor with lots to live for.

I was happy to see both of you on TV and how hard you are working to have laws changed to help all of us. Both of you take care and I hope to see you in person someday. Still Totally ADD

Solar panel government scam...we are doomed global warming Armagedon!!

by Witness 007 in

we got solar panels after the promise it will slash our bills 70% turns out that was true 6 years ago when my uncle got it the government was paying people for solar power.

well i just got a letter telling me they slashed the rebate again to 9 cents which means my $5000 investment in solar will take 6 years just to get my money back!

what a scam my uncles older contract means he pays no power bills for the last 10 years while the new deal screws us totally!

A six year recovery is far better than let's say just 10 or15 years ago it would take 20 years to recover your cost. In the U.S. one of the biggest problems is our power grid it is very antiqueted and needs to be totally rebuilt. For those who can't afford solar one of the biggest things you can do is have proper insulation in your attic, craw space or basement floors and seal all air leaks around doors and windows. It's amazing how much energy you will save. Living in a old farm house built in 1899 I know. Also I learned in old houses like mine insulating the walls without taking all the old interior walls out first and then put in a proper vapor barrier needs to be done. If you don't you will risk moisture problems which will cause mold problems in the wall. If you do go through all that trouble to insulate the walls it will take almost 12 years to recoop your investment. If you go to foam insulation it even more. Good luck with your solar panels on your house. Still Totally ADD

A & E Cults-Barbara Anderson

by Joyzabel in

16 years ago dateline's report on jw's and child abuse was aired may 28, 2002, a tuesday night and tonight a&e aired on may 29, 2018, tuesday night!.

i can't help but think how barbara has tirelessly worked to expose the child abuse issue within the watchtower/jw.org and is still working to not only expose the problem but to help change the laws in the usa to help protect children.

she has a wealth of information gathered for over 20 years on how the governing body protects the pedophile and not help the victims .

Still Totally ADD

It was done very well. To see Barbara and Joe on this topic was very reassuring for me. I must admit watching the show last night brought up a lot of feelings of anger in me. I was sick to my stomach after the show was over. It took me hours to settle down to I could go to sleep. Remy is a true survivor of sexual abuse. I wish her a long and healthy life. I hope this will be the spark to end up his cult. Still Totally ADD

Favourite Quirky / Low Budget / Non-Mainstream Movies

by Simon in

so the recent topic about film franchises got me thinking.

sure, we all love the big budget, mainstream releases that are so successful they spawn never-ending (it sometimes seems) sequels.

we could watch marvel and star-wars movies for the rest of our lives (and we might just ...).. but y'know what i love?

Still Totally ADD

Simon is the movie Time Lapse a take off from a old 1960' s Twilight Zone TV show? Crooks who had a camera that took pictures of things that would happen hours later. I will have to check this movie out. Thank you. Still Totally ADD

...crazy religious organizations

by lastmanstanding in

why they need to get rid of organized religion.

these people are batshit crazy.. https://apple.news/axf71irnns4w2kc-vtvv6zw.

Still Totally ADD

If it was anything like I saw living down in FL retirees seem to flock to religion knowing they have only a short time left on this Earth. In most cases they have never step into a church since they were kids. After all look at their thinking of being being Kings and priest in God's kingdom. Still Totally ADD

Ex-Jehovah's Witness Recovering Group 3 and This Site

by dubstepped in

jw
friends

i don't remember seeing it ever really talked about here but the facebook group with the namesake of this post shut down at the end of march.

it was archived and they weren't clear as to when or if they would come back.

it seemed to come out of nowhere, and i know a lot of people were disappointed.

Still Totally ADD

I feel this site has been a emotional lifeline for many of us. This place has become a daily habit for both my wife and I. Being able to have the freedom to speak your mind after being trap in a cult where that freedom is taken away from you is so freshing to our well being. We may not always agree with one another but that is how normal people act. Thank you Simon for all you have done. Let the healing continue until no more cults like the wt. exist. Still Totally ADD

Suicide note from pedophile elder's victim..

by QuestioningEverything in

years ago at the kh my aunt attended, there was an elder from a prominent jw family who was accused of sexual conduct with several young men in the hall.

he was an unmarried guy in his 30's who wore a terrible hair piece/toupee.

his sister once told me he was waiting for the new system to marry so he could have a perfect wife--isn't that funny?.

Still Totally ADD

Very sad😖😖😞😟😟. Regardless of why this letter was circulated the young man is a victim of another pedophile in this cult. Being survivor of abuse myself I have great concern for those who have not gotten the support they need to survive the trauma they went through from these creeps. My heart goes out to all such victims. We are all worth more than this cult will ever give you credit for. Questioning Everything thank you for bring this out. It gives voice to what has and still is taking place in this high control cult. Still Totally ADD

my wife and i have been long time lurkers here and are now members .

we were wondering if anyone is aware of any groups or individuals that meet periodically within ( or a short drive from ) connecticut ?

we aren't looking to bash the past ... just to connect with others who understand and move on .

My wife and I live in Western NY near Jamestown. Maybe there is a half way point for us all to meet. Still Totally ADD
