The desparation one goes through to reach the point were death seems like the only answer to stop the hurting , the pain, the lonliness is hard to describe to another. At that moment in life an abyss seems to open and swallow you whole , you see no way out other than the most drastic of measures. Depression eats away your reasoning that things can change for the better, or at least any change from what you are going through at that moment. The feeling there is no one on this planet that cares about whether you breathe another breath is over whelming .Death seems like peace to you then. How sad .... when we convince ourselves that this is rational. Bless the souls that try to help , offer a listening ear , extend a comforting hug .But realize you can not control the disorder that goes on in some one else's mind . You can only try and guide that one to seek help , but you will never know what is really going on in their mind. Even the depressed person may feel okay one moment then suddenly just can't deal one more second . Dave you are very kind to extend kindness to those suffering . I think this board is a life saver for many who feel they have lost so much or are on the brink of doing so . It saddens me to hear of those that felt another day would not be any brighter............

Elders sting operation on myspace
by troubled mind ina certain young person told me last night a jw friend of his from n.y. received an elder visit .
the suspect was told that the elders had been lurking about on myspace and had caught several young ones with accounts there .
they told this person's account was benign yet was counseled it was bad association to be on myspace.

Thanks I appreciate the advice. What really gets to me is I REALLY HATE to be lied to, and I don't in anyway want my older children to feel I wasn't honest with them . I'm so glad I have JWD to reveal my thoughts to , otherwise I swear I would go out of my mind ( more than I already am )

I am begining to get a little worried that "they" won't allow me to quietly fade . I have been reading posts here about a trend of the elders visiting to see if you are coming back to meetings .That really concerns me I know now to be careful what I say to them. I have adult children still in, and I haven't explained to them yet my true feelings . I give tidbits here and there, but am not sure what will happen if the" %* hits the fan ".

Well wombat I'm going to take your comment as a compliment , but.......I'm actually not a teen I'm a middle age mom. I am trying to preserve the identity of some young JW teens that know they can talk to me about anything w/o being judged harshly . I do give them advice similar to what you said.

Okay unclebruce you kind of scared me there for a second, because I really have an Uncle Bruce ,and he is an Elder. So far I havn't been dismembered . I don't consider myself an evil apostate , I am a benevolent truth seeker and lover of what is right . Do you think they can announce it that way when they finally do find me out ?

Thanks Wombat , I just read the spying post you suggested . The young person I talked to last night really felt the elders were dishonest . They would post questions to different accounts trying to get someone to say something they could get in trouble for. Just gives you that warm , fuzzy feeling knowing our shepards love us so much .
