Lehaa,
I am thinking that I may go into either clinical psychology or counselling psychology. Not too sure at the moment, I am just loving what I do and learning. I have an interest in mental health and also in womens issues but not quite sure which direction that I will eventually take.

Reboot,
I'm not passed out yet!.....yet......
Had such an emotional day! Went in Uni to get results and ended up waiting around all day before they eventually got posted. Was waiting around with a couple of people that failed a few and have to resit, so had to suppress my elation.
Decided crack open a bottle of wine this evening and I'm spilling over!

i think i'm screwed
by georgefoster inwhen i got married, my wife was an inactive baptized jw who promised me that she was done with it forever.
i became daddy to her two children, ages 2 and 3. a few months after we got married, i walked in on her meeting with two jw elders.
they tried to convince me that it was a great, harmless thing for her to be involved in.

Although it may not seem like it now, there is hope. There was a time when I ate, drank and slept JW doctrine/lifestyle...very, very full on. My daughter was baptised at the age of thirteen, we both pioneered, we were all very, very active..except my husband of course.
The difference in our lives unfortunately became an irrepairable divide but that was largely down to his suppressed resentment at what we were holding most dear, which consequently led to the abuse that he inflicted upon us.
I always wanted my marriage to work and only left after the abuse became so bad that it was intolerable for me and my children. I often used to wonder....what if?
Anyway that is our story. But the point I am trying to make is that leopards do change their spots! I suppose if my husband remained consistent in just being a good husband and father and actually spoke about his feelings rather than concealing them, then maybe there would have been some hope.......
There is no getting away from it, life for you must be extremely difficult at the moment but you're not screwed! Don't give them that power! Just because the organisation is massive to her it doesn't have to be to you. Just keep on doing the things that you love to do with your wife and children and remain consistent. When things start to go wrong or whenever she begins to have doubts, she will hopefully view you as somone that is loyal and trustworthy enough to confide in.
Hope it goes well for you,

As part of my work we occasionally take our service users out on day trips. Today was one of them occasions. We visited a beautiful village in North Yorkshire called Botton.
As we strolled along a familiar face appeared amidst the group of people that were approaching us. She looked at me hesitantly and in the few seconds that it took me to process the information, I remembered her.
She had been in the organisation for many years before me and was a very attractive but lonley lady: a victim of an abusive, adulterous relationship and after her divorce spent many years single, sad and desperately wanting to share her life with someone. That never happened. She eventually left in order to seek out a mate. Consequently she was disfellowshipped.
I called her name and she approached me with her head bowed, she of course presuming that I was still an active JW.
Long story short....She met and married the man she left the organisation for and looked as beautiful as she did before. She also looked really happy and introduced me to him. We arranged to meet up later on in the day when I expected that we could exchange moans and groans about the past and revel in our newly found freedom.
Not so. She is intending to go back! Certainly the wind was knocked out of my sails! I have never met with or had a conversation with anybody that after having left and found freedom would ever dream of returning! She still spoke JW language and I began to feel a little uneasy in her company from then on.
After we parted, I had mixed emotions. I felt sad for her that despite her struggles to find happiness, she was still trapped and not free from the strong ties that have held her for years. I also realised that what I have found within my freedom is so precious to me. I should never take it for granted nor presume that others would share the beauty of it with me.
