i guess it's time for me to tell my story on this forum.
my parents came into contact with the "truth" during their engagement and so i was born into a borg family and quickly "assimilated.
" the congregation i grew up in however had very liberal views on many subjects, such as higher education, secular careers, and the like.

jws are not alone on this!
up to now i have given just three experiences about child molestation that happened among jws.
the issues here have been about the way these crimes are handled, and the flaws in the watch tower system of justice.
there has to be something done in all church no matter what church it happens in,it is just not fair to the

hello all- recently joined, had some probs getting logged in, but here at last.... anyway, the question is: for those that can relate, when your heart feels heavy from the hurt, pain, regret, sorrow, bitterness, anger... and the lost years, stolen time, forsaken friends, broken relationships, wasted energies, abandonment, and lost love weighs on you --> caused by wt org.
stress.... how do you get past it?
what heals you, brings you relief, rescues you from total worthless feelings of inadequacy, comforts your wounds, keeps you from jumping on the train tracks?.
i am at work and i have been reading more and more of those replys
you are so understanding because i always tryed to up hold the wt org
when other outside of the org, even thought i was df , I truly feel that people out side of
the wts can't help,it like someone elas has said that you have to live it to understand
oh i am so glay that you have this site? i am new here also
thanks for so much help, in all these years this is the best thing to happen for me.
a friend told me where to look and i have been coming here everyday since
love and understanding Lady 45
JUST A GOOD FEELING, A NEW FAMILY FROM WHERE I CAME ,HELLO ALL
if you had the power, and ability to change one thing in your life, be it a major life changing thing, or a small but significant thing, tell me what and how you would do it, and how it actually was, and how it would be different after the change.
please don't include jw'ism as that's something we would all want to change
if you tell me yours, i'll tell you mine
what i would have change: finishing school my mother took me out to care for her home and babysetting at an early age
and to find my father, i had the mother but never knew my father...

i am new on here- already posted one thing about life after leaving- got great responses.
as you can see by my name "perfection seeker" i was a witness.
i am now leaving, and not a perfection seeker :-) does anyone have information on exit counseling or deprogramming?
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR WELCOMING ME, it feel so good to find you all so that i don't feel so alone, i now work with a jw here at work and it is like he don't have alot to do with me but i do understand it is just the way jw's are told not to deal with xjw only if it's related to work, i do understand?
i was disfellowship back in 1988, i was in love with a worldly man and we got marry plus we had sex before marriage i stoped going to the meeting after that because i was feeling so bad about what i had done, so it went on so long a sister gave me a call and she ask me if i wanted to talk to the brothers of cause i said yes? because it was so strong on my mine what I had done, in my mine I had done something so bad to my relationship with jehovah, i felt like i had died inside, oh well. i am still marry to this worldly man,12 years later and still in love,
about 4 years later i went back to the KH to talk to the brother and try to get my life in order with MYfather Jehovah, I went for months and i also wrote the repent letter,that you are ask to write I just did'tn understand why the brother never got around to telling me how i was doing or what, this is the very frist time i talked about this since then to think about it now hurts because it feels so unfair to be put down like nothing, i have to say that i did learn alot about the bible when i was studying and i had a very loving sister that study with me, she is still waiting on me to return to the truth,
that is my story, thanks so much for this site, i plan to do what i can to help keep it running

i am also an xjw, and noone could have told me the thingss that i have found out in the last 3 weeks on these site. so just keep reading and this is a deprogramming enough for me, and i do feel alot better about my self... thanks for this site and meeting all these very nice people here
