Yep, it's all about time. You're just newly out. They will fade. It all fades, but I don't think it will ever fully go away.

DF’d or DA???
by DATA-DOG inso, i think i’m going to be df’d, but elders are out of town and no decision has been officially reached.
what would happen if i sent a certified overnight letter and said that i was going to disassociate before they have their meeting??.
i know the two conditions are similar, but i’m just curious... dd.

Lmao at all of the people that say that disassociating is admitting they have power over you...... from a bunch of people that are on a forum all about Jehovah's Witnesses. It's just admitting the truth and not living in denial. I'd rather live in reality. Disassociation puts up a wall between you and the cult. I don't care who came up with the word or process, it truly puts a distance in that fading can't give you. It is way more freeing than fading and having to hide your real self to play their game. Disassociate, be done, and take a stand. Don't fade and give implicit validation of their way of life, take a stand against it. Be willing to lose everyone you ever knew. It takes courage but makes more of a statement than slinking away into the night.
The cult has a measure of power over all of us. We wouldn't all be here if it didn't. It took so much from us. Use this one opportunity to take a stand against it and disassociate.
If a person wants to fade for family reasons that's cool too, just don't prop yourselves up on the backs of those that took a stand. Your decision ends with you, no reason to push down those that disassociate to feel better. If you're making your own decision you don't need to compare. I only did so here because I'm tired of the anti-disassociation rhetoric and people that discourage very personal decisions made by others. It sucks.

If you haven't had your meeting you can probably DA. It's up to them. They may say "you can't quit, you're fired", but who knows.

dubstepped, Amazing facts. I will save this. BTW, does your family shun you now ?
Oh hell yeah, lol. They shunned my wife and I (as did her family) well before we disassociated because we woke up and stopped shunning my younger brother after 13-14 years of faithfully doing so. As soon as they found out we saw him intentionally the shunning started. Four months later we disassociated.
The excerpt above is from an email I sent my mom on my first Shunniversary. I decided to take one shot to forever ruin her use of the words "The Truth" so that cognitive dissonance would forever nag her. I didn't know if she read it despite trying to track it through gmail, but soon thereafter she blocked me on Facebook and then removed her account. I'd say she read it.
She's the one that got my family in this mess. I wanted to take one shot at waking her up, one last shot. By the way, they were already practicing complete shunning as O knew they would. My dad died earlier that year and I wasn't welcome at his memorial.
Our families both died in 2015 before we disassociated, but certainly on September 2 of that year.

View it on YouTube and read the description. This is real, from an induction video at Bethel that was leaked. One is for men, one for women. I always thought they had some sort of written code of conduct manual and I guess now it's just in glorious video, lol.
Cedars is having a rebuttal video to come out on the 27th. I'm guessing then you'll see it in all its glory.

This is so sad and abusive but it's also hilarious to watch them show their ridiculous control that knows literally no bounds.
