  Void of Fear!

  by R.Crusoe in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  see if you can retrace as far back in life as you can remember!.

  list fears that controlled you as a person growing up and into adulthood - which you now think of as nonsense!

  i was scared to visit the toilet in the night and used to race from my bed to the bathroom and back again!

  Having been a JW do you find yourself less fearful of everything?

  Maybe this is the single most important reason to leave JWs?

  Personal Autonomy!

  ?Human ego = Religion?

  by R.Crusoe in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  does the need/insecurity for many people to have a partner devote to them alone cause them to want a religious type?.

  is lifelong love 'holy' or does it simply feel so good that humans are selfish enough to create rules to enforce it as holy because they insist on having it - or are unable to cope with rejection or feeling worthless and replaced by another?.

  do we each so hate being betrayed that we feel just in punishing ones who aren't?

  2. experiences

  well, yes, as a matter of fact.

  i have become a desperate, needy, clingy burden on my friends, so depressed i don't know what to do.

  every day i say, pull up your socks, put one foot in front of the other.

  I missed OC off my disorders cuz its implied by dependent avoidant = where else to go? plus some of the rules they match it to are utterly not me. Like much psycho speak = the rules are not necessarily under the correct heading.

  2. friends

  i find this question another i hate to think of!!.

  i view myself through others which is a reality of zilch so it is bad karma for me to consider it!.

  maybe its circumstantial of many life events but i'll bet exjws feel the power of the above dynamic as a negative force for humanitarian ectics and personal self worth!

  1. social

  i was not raised in the cult.

  i lived across the street from a county group home that housed 10-12 teen-age boys at any one time.

  i was 14 and in heaven.

  aSPinaC,

  I imagine some are overinfluenced by 'overimpressionst' exposure to role models ?

  Early years teachers tend to be female and also one parent families are predominantly female oriented = maybe that's a factor in role model imprinting?

  So you need some guys who love women like me for example! That's all.

  Are YOU born under "original sin"?

  by gaiagirl in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  that is, do you view yourself as a member of a "fallen" race of humans, and/or separated from god/perfection/divinity, and/or subject to eventual death because of something an ancestor allegedly did?.

  is this even a healthy way to view oneself?.

  personally, if there were any truth to the genesis account, then i'd claim descent from the "other" people living outside eden.
