What stage are you in after leaving or waking up to TTATT?

i can honestly say that although still in, i have lost the fear of wts dooms day version and in all sincerity i don't care what others inside the cult think of me.

at first i was mad of being lied to, i was sad that paradise is not coming, and i felt fear of death.

i happy to report, that i am now at peace with my eventual mortality and i am enjoying every second i have while i am alive.. .

Time is definitely making a difference.

Every day I get a little more confident about arguing my corner, and I care a little less about what others think. My only concern now is about not losing my wife. I feel THE conversation is going to come up soon, in which I tell her I'm only going to the meetings to be supportive of her, and that I've gone from doubting to not believing.

It's been easier and there's been less pressure since I came out as a doubter, and I sure am enjoying life a lot more, if it wasn't for the fear of losing the luvverly missus...

Andthe dread of having to go out on the ministry in the morning.... 😥

hay out there.. wife got back from her thursday meeting & now she's setteled down with the dog, a v large g&t (maid be me) & watching terminator 2 on the telly with her ipad on her lap looking up places to go for our holiday (& googling symptoms of to many antibiotics as my 16 year old is getting signs of ibs).

so now is a good time to say hello.. well hello.

my name is phats & i'm an ex jehovah's witness.. there, i've said it.. this must be like it is going to your first aa meeting.. i've already used up some of my posts for a newbe but i'm not in to the whole long story thing.. basically i've been out now for 8 years (mentally out for all but four or five of those years of my life when i made the commitment, got baptized & married.).

When I decided to no longer turn in time...

by SG098 in

being my 1st post i figured i should relate a personal experience.

a few months ago i decided to stop reporting time.

i'm mentally out of this cult now but still trapped because of family.

Welcome to the world of the far-out thinkers and the twisted minds!

Really nicely presented video too, you got skills!

I've had a similar experience where a meeting with two elders turns into a meeting with one elder that confides that he doesn't disagree with me but says they've 'got everything else right, or at least better than anyone else does so we might as well go along with it' ...

Don't you be thinking now .. Stop thinking, I can tell you're thinking, it'll come to no good I tell you! Listen obey and be brainwashed!

Your final WTF? Moment!

it was a long time coming for me.....when i read about the extened generations, after being raised on1914 being the be all end all, and millions would never die....that was the end.

i was part of the 1975 fiasco, the 6 month only truth book studies, suffered through a disifellowshipping and their version of a rewind.

i finally am free and hope others can eventually look in instead of inside looking out!

Well said phizzy, I'm only just starting to become a full grown human being. It's a good feeling. I just wish it had happened a lot earlier in my life. Likewisee problem addict, we'll put sir!

Sounds daft compared to all your deep personal revelations on doctrinal matters, but the first time I permitted myself to do a search on here was on Beards!

I know this sounds gross

by Doug Mason in

there is a medical procedure known as: fecal microbiota transplantation (or transfusion).. has the watchtower society identified whether blood is possibly transfused through this process?

if it has, what is its verdict?

if it has not investigated this medical procedure, why hasn't it?.

Something to do with the fact that we've got billions of bacteria in our gut, if they die off, they may need replenishing. Don't get me wrong, it's not as simple as a turd in a syringe, it's filtered and screened and all that but basically it's still a poo injection.

A poo injection.

Yes you heard it right, a poo injection.

Poo.

Injected into your gut.

My logic and emotions are in a turmoil. Need specific help please

by stuckinarut2 in

i am still in, and as my name says "stuckinarut"...now i know it is not the truth, i know it for a fact...but im so messed up with a wash of hundreds of thoughts that i cant seem to get my head in order.. i thought i had my head clear and my 'sh1t together' so to speak....but ..... im sure you know what i mean?

when there are so many reasons and facts proving ttatt, but if asked to make a list in bullet points now, i would get so overwhelmed....i just dont know where to start.

i feel like i would be like a balloon let go flying around the room in all directions trying to 'spew' out the facts!.

Thanks for starting this thread mister, I know EXACTLY what you mean about the constant internal chatter, and the old brain getting flustered when confronted with demands for facts...

Some good suggestions up there, I really need to start creating a file of my own, once you've researched AND WRITTEN your own stuff it sticks in the mind easier. Flipping Teflon skull casing...

Internet Dating - I feel like I am being love bombed again

by KateWild in

i am on three or four sites and lots of guys are showing an interest and trying to be genuine.

it reminds me of being love bombed by the jws.

i am having so much fun and loving all the attention, i almost got carried away with it all, until i got a pm on jwn.. i have just been absorbing it all and it dawned on me i am still vulnerable, and possibly not ready to date.

Ditch men, go out with a girl!

How Pioneering has prepared me for multiple Dates

by KateWild in

i have two more dates this week.

keeping track of who is who and showing them a "genuine" interest has been fun to say the least.

i can prepare for each "return visit" in advance and take notes after each date.. so is this ethical?.

disposable hero of hypocrisy

Sounds like a good plan, although I'm hoping you won't be taking notes DURING the date!

Have fun missy!
