  I need some help

  by New Castles in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have been reading and posting (sometimes) for about 7 months and am very grateful to have found a community that understand what i have been going through.

  i have been fading for a little over a year now, and have a sudden urge to speak out about how i feel and what wts is doing.

  i have tried this in the past with some family, including my wife, who is no longer with me, for the same reason....i have also spoken to my brother and mother.

  3 doors down

  When I'm Gone
  

   There's another world inside of me That you may never see There's secrets in this life That I can't hide Somewhere in this darkness There's a light that I can't find Maybe it's too far away... Maybe I'm just blind... Maybe I'm just blind... [chorus] So hold me when I'm here Love me when I'm wrong Hold me when I'm scared And love me when I'm gone Everything I am And everything you need I'll also be the one You wanted me to be I'll never let you down Even if I could I'd give up everything If only for your good So hold me when I'm here Love me when I'm wrong You can hold me when I'm scared You won't always be there So love me when I'm gone [end chorus] Love me when I'm gone... When your education x-ray Can not see under my skin I won't tell you a damn thing That I could not tell my friends Roaming through this darkness I'm alive but I'm alone Part of me is fighting this But part of me is gone [chorus] Maybe I'm just blind... [chorus] Love me when I'm gone... Love me when I'm gone When I'm Gone When I'm Gone When I'm Gone

  JWs Live In Their Own Little World

  by minimus in

  one thing i'm convinced of is that jws live in their own little bubble.

  the world could be in chaos around them but not missing a meeting is what's most important.

  children of jws could be going thru teenage trauma or even molestation, but are they getting their "time" in??

  They believe that everything that is on the news negative about the WTS is provided by apostates...those liars!

  Zev,

  What an incredible story, thanks so much for sharing. It gives the rest of us still battling similar situations the strength we need.

  Thanks and good luck to you!

  Thanks everyone,

  I know I should suppress the urge, but its just there all the time. I have just recently found out about the 607 date being false and I thought of using that with them. Isn't a shame that this religion makes families go through this??

  Im excited about everything that is happening and yet not able to share with any of my family.

I need help or advice on how to go about with this new urge to speak the real truth. "The best of" forum has helped with providing some info, but I'd like to know what would be the best way to approach the subject, especially with my folks, that I am no longer a JW (I dont consider myself one anymore)....

  Any ideas would surely be appreciated..

  Thanks
