MY PEOPLE!!!!!!!
by JohnnyMarr ini just wanted to say hello to everyone.
i'm an inactive, spiritually weak witness of not so good standing who stumbled on here the other day while trying to find out what tomorrows big announcement was going to be, after being told my mother that i might wanna go to the hall on sunday to find out.
it's cool seeing so many people who have shared some of the same experiences i have in the past.

You're My Reason For Why I Am
by prophecor ini would like for it to be known that my being apart of jwd has been an experience that has given me hope.
i've come to enjoy being a part of the online community, so much so that it's what i look forward to when my day involves something other than being here.
the only thing better than being here would be to experience being with you all, face to face.

Just thinking again, it can be dangerous.
by purplesofa inand when they say they keep knocking on the same doors in case peoples circumstances have changed.
they are looking for something in that persons life so they can build them up.
so why search out weak ones?

Great logic
I once told a JW when they said we NEED to be at all the meetings: "we are no longer spiritual babes"....
I received a strange look, but the comment is true.

Welcome
The lack of love that you are experiencing is what Bryan experienced: "spiritual abuse". I feel bad for both you and Brian and everyone else that has went thru this experience.
I left because of spiritual abuse as well, but I was not df'd or da'd.
Might I suggest a great book to validate your feelings? "The Subtle Power of Spiritual Abuse".............not written by JW's but as you read each chapter you would think it was written by JW's.
This is a great place for healing....if you get stuck in the "healing process", getting a counselor that is knowledgeable about exiting a cult is very helpful.

my mom stopped going to meetings today
by dh in.
i don't talk about my family very much on here, but today i feel i have to, because today after all the years of pushing, finally there is a result.. thanks to life & the universe and everyone on jwd, who by simply existing have helped in a way that i don't know how to write.. today is the day my mom stopped going to meetings.. i won't go into loads of detail at this point because it's very involved, but it's done.
my dad is an elder and is still going, but my mom is out now.. thanks

Dh.......that is wonderful It's more than a simple twist of fate, her rose colored glasses broke!!!
Has your mom ever viewed this board? If not, introduce her to it, she made need it for the healing transition. Tell her I said "hi".....
I imagine with your Dad being an elder, homelife may be very strained....I hope you and your Mom can handle it, at least you both can support each other now.
