  What can a therapist really do?

  by Thetruthhurts in

  hi all, i've not read the forums for awhile as i've been trying to move on with my life but i'm back and posting for the first time feeling like i cant get a grip.

  so i'm wondering for those of you that have seen a therapist and say that it truly helps, what can be accomplished?

  i'm just really skeptical, but starting to feel desperate.

  Last Thursday's Meeting in Elmira, On

  by newsheep in

  i had gotten a phone call from a brother who was really upset.

  he said there was a resolution passed that everyone is in agreement to the selling of the elmira hall.

  the strange thing is at the congregation picnic an elder told him that a few years ago the deed to the hall was signed over to the org.

  One of My BIGGEST Regrets as a JW Was How I Accepted Dealing With Disfellowsipped Ones

  by minimus in

  looking back at it, it was shameful to treat human beings worse than a way we would treat a dog!

  ignore people, treat them as dead...,it's so awful.

  😞.

  Honest Questions About Child Abuse

  by Richard Oliver in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  i have two honest questions for everyone here.

  i understand that most here want retribution from the courts against watchtower for child abuse allegations.

  but let us take away the instances where someone was accused of child abuse and then later put back into a position of authority, such as an elder or an ms. let us just take the cases where a regular publisher or even an appointed person, with no previous accusation of child abuse has come up against that person.

  "Where Is Jehovah In All of This?" My Wife, July of '93

  by TMS in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  the title above is a question asked by my wife seemingly hundreds of times in 1993, the year our only child was disfellowshipped.

  the entire story exceeds the reasonable limits of this forum and i have to suppress the urge to write it.

  instead, i will give little snippets, what a certain elder said at this or that point, how jehovah's organization treated us, how we handled our gradual awakening to, yes, "the truth about the truth.

  hi people,.

  i want as much data as possible on the effect of the internet on the time captured by the cult.. please answer the three following questions about yourself or about someone you know (for example, if your parents or grandparents were jw's and left).

  1) were you raised as a jw, or did you convert?.
