Thanks for the support....I left in 1990 at 16 years old , My brother got out in 1992 at age 14. We both were runaways and had to take care of ourselves on the streets. Its been 14 years since he has been with the JW and he hasn't moved on with his life, I don't think he knows how. I just wish I had the magic words so he would understand that he needs to get some help.

My brother has many problems
by Butterfly32 inmy brother and i were raised as jw, were both adults now and non believers.
my brother has many problems, he has no identity of himself, he is on drugs, he has no plans for his future, no plans for higher education, he never expresses himself, he doesnt show his true feelings.
i feel that he is a victim of being in a jw cult.

Can someone help me!!!
My brother and I were raised as JW, were both adults now and non believers. My brother has many problems, he has no identity of himself, he is on drugs, he has no plans for his future, no plans for higher education, he never expresses himself, he doesn’t show his true feelings.
I feel that he is a victim of being in a JW cult. I have talked to him about reaching out for help, but my brother tells me that being raise as a JW never bother him and that its not affecting his life now. I don’t think that he would have all these problems if that were true. How can I help him in the recovery process.
Thanks for any help

raised in the truth?
by bluebeads ini was just wondering what constitutes as being brought up in the truth.
my mom was baptized when i was 7 and my dad got dunked when i was 11. right now i don't really consider myself as being fully raised in the truth because even though i've been going to meetings since i was 6 i just slept/doodled through them.
my mom didn't study with us kids and my dad didn't start the family study until i was 12. i'm turning 20 in a few weeks... i've known life before the truth and it was much bettter, everyone was soo much happier.

You must never be alone with a elder. If he was talking to you that way he may be up to no good. He might have been testing you and may try something inappropriate next time. And please please finish school, don't wait intil your in you 30's like me.
Lots of care
