microphones were the last straw
by ivy init wasn't the big stuff that made me decide i could never go back, it was one little thing.
i have been thinking about my journey out of "the truth", and i think i can pin-point the last straw.. .
i had been out for years, but always thinking that if i got my head together someday i would be good enough to go back.

There was an incident that got me going on the road, it wasn't the final straw but it was that very important first straw.
After the meeting to formally disfellowship my formerly elder husband. I went up to the overseer and said, "Well I guess we can't go to Poland. Our family had been "chosen" to go on some trip to Poland to represent the U.S witnesses/visit those less fiscally fortunate. It was 1989. Anywho I had been through the most awful events possible during the previous weeks and my poor shattered brain focused on the trip.
The overseer said I can't really give you the answer, it wouldn't be proper. He walked over to my newly disfellowshipped husband and told him, with me standing right there that we couldn't go to Poland.

The Awakening
by Cygnus inas many of you know, i have had some severe emotional issues the last couple of months.
repression from growing up jw and being so damned responsible for all my years and setting aside emotions....... now the emotions are finally kicking their way through the door and coming out with a vengeance.
i found a piece on a website devoted to anti-depressants and i normally don't do this but i thought i would share it with the board.
