Growing up a gay Jehovah's Witness (My Life Story)

by m0nk3y in

i feel the need to express how i feel and felt about my life as a gay man.

i was brought up from birth as a jehovahs witness.

this has played a major part in my life and it has been a real struggle to get past.

I want to say thank you for putting your story out there. I also grew up in JW - canberra and had a hard time of it coming out and leaving. I left in 1999 and moved to QLD where i came out a few years later about 23 YO to my family and friends. I really related to your story and would like to extend my love and light to you. I now live in Wellington NZ with the love of my life. I have recently started to reach out to x JWs as a part of healing for myself. It is also in the hopes of meeting up with others so that i can do my part in a recovery net for any x jws that would like help. You have inspired me to start writing my own story so that others can know what i went through. anyway, i just wanted to thank you for your story and for being alive - it sounds like you have made it free from the JWs and are very happy now.
