  mr. t was huge back then.

  I know every now and then I have a thought that my life is too good to be true and an impending sense of doom like it can't possibly last and the better things are the worse a thing will happen.

  Slowly I am deprogramming from that as terrible things don't happen and actually more and more good things happen to me.

  I have this same feeling also. We did live under a constant cloud of doom... In my case, I felt that if I allowed myself to be happy, apart from the organization, then God would come and snatch it all away.

  I think it keeps some of us more or less stuck, afraid to be happy. Not sure if you feel this way or not, Scoobysnax, but I know it has affected me on some levels.

  you are right Scoobysnax,

  Most of us are looking at your situation from an outsider point of view. I have never lived with the choices you are facing. I do realize how stressful it must be.

  As for flipping a switch and turning off the "What -IF- it is the truth" thoughts, I think some of us do deal with that. I know I do. If, and I mean "IF" it is the truth... then I am toast and so are my children. That also is hard to deal with on a daily basis. So, on some level I can relate to what you are saying.

  I literally felt spiritually dead the last few years as a witness... something was wrong, and I don't feel it was 100 % me. So, I keep reading and searching, who know where I will end up.

  I wish we had the answers for you, I really do.

  Sincerely,

  Cas

  About me

  i've been doing the home study with the jw's for almost a year now.

  i've never attended the kingdom hall meetings because i didn't want to -- i used my parents' objection as an excuse.

  but now i'm at a problem - i believe more as the christadelphians believe, and i no longer want to do the study with the jw's i know.

  Welcome Bryce,

  I agree with BFD and others, just be honest with them, the sooner the better.

  If they are your real friends they will stick around, if not, at least you will know. Time will tell.

  Haven't had one in years. I feel so deprived...

  Even tho one of the elders drives a Fed-X truck and delivers here once in a while. He's friendly, business wise...so they know where I am...

  Ya'll could say "Jack Ass".... wish I had know that, (other than reading). I would have thrown that around all over the place..

  The "Brothers" used to say fudge alot. I would think WTH is the difference, we all know what you mean...

  Not having to "STOP" and examine every single move I make, or every word I say. Lest I "Stumble" someone...

  Oh, and the panty hose and heels too...
