Regarding Puff the Magic Dragon, synthetic Opiates such as Vicaden and Oxycodone are the ONLY acceptable Pharmaceuticals and the preferred choice of brothers everywhere and use thereof will not affect your service priveliges, apart from that, Rutherford clearly established alchoholism as the recreational activity of choice,

if you are, you know it is not easy to remain intimate with someone who thinks you are basically "walking dead".. any thoughts or tips to share with the board?.
what has been the greatest issue for your marriage?.
need to vent?.
I think the only thing that will get you through this intact is if you have a really close friendship with your other, sadly most jws did not have this best friends type of relationship going into their marriage, to the contrary I've seen elders pressure the quick marriages of virtual strangers,

When you left the meetings you "left Jehovah" You do realize that jws equate "The Society" with Jehovah right? A good jw puts Jehovah First in his/her life, do you ever feel that you are competing with the Almighty for attention?
You are

@ttdtt
Had to take down and throw out my Spock poster as it was worship
:(
i was a baptised brother born in a jw family with my dad as the elder.

i would like to post something here since i have quite a complicated feeling after a year out.
I think that you have provided some very good advice, thank -you and all the best to you in the future, tepid :0)

One of the reasons we don't is that we're conditioned to want priveliges, everything from mike handling (sounds ludicrous doesn't it) pioneering, sitting/guarding contribution boxes, commenting, ms/elder, need greater recommendations, the list is endless, "the greatest among you should be your brother" HAHA
So the provided motivation is to SHUT UP!

Maybe this will help: My room mate was in service with the co, Society had just changed the special pioneer allowance, the allowance had always been in fairly even amounts like $60/mo, it was now $104, so my friend remarked that it was an "odd number" to which the co said: "are there many things the society does you find odd?" (true) We next found out that our apartment was bugged (joking)

I remember the DO diatribe against the Simpsons,
What I also remember well is the Society's banning of friendly congregation ball games as being competative and therefore wrong (70s), A brother I knew, while this was being said, said out loud "These guys are out to lunch" He soon left the jws, I thought at the time how disrespectful etc, now I just laugh, he was right! :0)

For me it was that I (a 10 yr old only child) should have absolutely no friends, this being preferable to having one pretty decent worldly kid as my friend, I suppose (sarcasm) that his basic joy in life could rub off on me :0)
