by AlmostAtheist insometimes you have a friend that falls on hard times.
their health fails, they lose their jobs, they spend their last dollar -- whatever.

I knew of several suicide incidents of people in the org but only one by an exJW which is surprising since Im from a small populated area. There is no telling what the percentages of suicides would be if all the JWs on antidepressants quit taking them.

during a book study the conductor (who was the p.o.

Yeah, and my retirement is near too, only about 32 years and I will be 70 and hopefully will be able to take a break from putting in 40 hours a week, if I dont fall over dead before it comes.
