  The Watchtower guilt machine is indeed a powerful tool

  i haven't posted as much here as i've wanted these past few weeks, but i've spent most of my time lurking here, or in chat.

  for the last few 2 months roughly, every meeting i attended became extremely painful to endure, such that i would come up with excuses to miss as many as possible.

  but there are 2 events that really gave me a swift kick to wake me up and realize that things had to change.

  dear nocturn,

  this is my first post here,.....and it seems very appropiate that it would be in regard to such a subject.... you are very correct in noting that what you said to your mother caused her terrible pain..... but that was unavoidable.....

  what you told your mother is exactly what our son said to me over 2 years ago..... right after he came home from nearly 4 years at brooklyn bethel...i thought my heart would actually break!!! yet thanks to our sons great courage,...... and his trueness to what he HAD to tell us...... im am also now free from the watchtower and all of its lies, after over 34 years as a baptised jw. also so is his father who was an elder at the time of this announcement. also so is his brother who was then an m.s. and still at brooklyn bethel. also his sister who had been a pioneer for 9 years.... and her spouse,....and last of all (so far) his youngest sister who had been baptised 6 years earlier.

  you will survive this!!!!!!

  i put my arms around you ((((((( nocturn)))))) carrot-juice
