I came across E Watchmans site and as he was still a JW, i thought it would be ok for me to read his stuff.. then I found a link on his site that I was terrified to go to as it might be apostate and it took me to JWD... I read everything for weeks and weeks I never told a soul. not even my husband for a long time.. I realized I was in a cult and the last meeting I walked out of I knew I would never ever go back.. I had to tell my kids that I was sorry I took them down that road.. no bdays, holidays. the whole mess of that life.. I am still on this board almost every day. I DA myself with letters to the elders and some close friends.. My life has been 100 percent better and i am so grateful that I am out of that cult!!!

DA's myself with a letter to all the elders and some personal close "friends".. in 2006. Some of them talk to me and some of them dont... so dont know if they really did announce my name... One elder came to my door shortly after to talk to me but we just stood at the door.. no questions ever asked.. no meeting.. that was fine with me.. I have my life back.. so grateful I got out. Saved my two younger kids from the misery as well..
