  some internal sources in jw.org has brought me attention to the following data:.

  - in which european country, not member of the eu, and well known for their banking industry, jw.org and some affiliated structures do maintain some business incorporated structures and companies?.

  - which is the purpose of these business and company structures?.

  I agree. I'm very confused and feel left in the dark.

  On a local sports forum that I'm on we like to post dogs in hats to ignore a nonsense post and have fun, but I can't from my phone, so (insert pug wearing top hat here).

  How do you deal with depression?

  i'm currently going through a bout of depression and my eating disorder has gotten worse.

  ever since my parents actually told me that they are going to kick me out when i turn 18 i've felt kind of hopeless about my life.

  my parents won't take me to the doctor because the psychiatrists won't have my "best interests" aka jw crap in mind, because really that's the root of all my problems.. i'm wondering if any of you guys have any advice with dealing with depression?

  I just want to point out that there's nothing wrong with pills, if you need them, and that they aren't magic. I'm sorry you had a bad reaction, but instead of running away you probably needed either a different med or dosage. You have to be allowed to work with them for a time to get things straight.

  With that said, pills are just a tool, you have to have other tools like counseling, the ability to control your own life, and support. Your parents are extremely a abusive and negligent. Get away from them, live life free, and things may clear up. You should definitely still see a therapist as you come out of this, and if someday you need a pill, that's cool too, just know that getting it right is a process, not a one time thing. Brain chemistry is tricky and always changing.

  If it's too hot to exercise outside, there are lots of exercises you can do indoors. There are so many free videos on youtube of exercises that you can do from home. Pick something you like and do it. It is a great mood enhancer.

  did anyone experience a disassociation announcement during the public meeting instead during the service meeting?.

  in my case it was announced the next day that we submitted our letter and this was on sunday instead of waiting for the service meeting on thursday..

  I know that I've heard of such announcements being made on Sundays before. It stuck out in my mind as different. It isn't supposed to be that way, but in the end it doesn't matter. You're free even sooner! Congratulations on your disassociation. It was great when both my wife and I did it last fall.

  Oh, and ignore the people that question your decision instead of chiming in with anything constructive whatsoever. It's yours to make. It is the ultimate way to stop playing their games. Game over, it's done, you can move on without further harassment. Live a beautiful life unencumbered by dubs for the rest of your days.

  Who wouldn't be depressed in your situation? Realize there's nothing wrong with you, it's your circumstances. Eating disorders are often about controlling that one thing because otherwise you have no control in this. This is all on the cult and your parents. I second the recommendation of finding good online support for your eating disorder.

  Isn't there some "king of the north" thing they still have to work out, or have they wrapped that up somehow? They like to pick and choose prophecy from all over the confused mess of a book that they follow, so it's hard to keep it all straight.

  Besides, I thought that 1986 and the year of peace and security was the beginning....errr....Y2k....errr....9/11.....errr.... Hurricane Katrina.....errr.....9/11.....errr....the tsunami in Japan....errr....any big deal ever was the beginning of the end. Nah, they're not doomsday cultists.

  Introduction - Any Believers?

  by Believer in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i’ve been reading it for a few of years off and on, but have been a little too ... maybe ... timid to join.

  i left the watchtower organization almost 20 years ago but never abandoned my faith and belief in god.

  i knew the gb/organization didn’t represent god, so when i lost my faith in them, i managed to keep my faith in an all wise benevolent creator.

  As I've said before, many who leave the dubs just become as forceful in their new beliefs as they were with the dubs. Vacillating from one edge to another, they are zealots for whatever they believe because of an internal need to be right, dominated by ego. They need to control others like any good narcissist, and others must have their beliefs seen in the light of that person's egoic need to control and be right. Just like the dubs, there is no live and let live, everyone must think like them or face relentless questioning. It's sad to be so wrapped up in one's own intellect that you no longer care if it hurts others because it's all about you. Been there, done that myself, and hopefully I'm past most of that on my journey now. I needed others to see things how I saw them because being right was more important than anything. It's not healthy for anyone.

  Nicely done man! I find an occasional poem to be good for my soul. I can't force it, but sometimes inspiration hits and it just flows. I think you beautifully expressed what many of us have felt. It doesn't have to be positive, it just has to be real.
