Three months of Hard Core training.
by LouBelle inwe had a compitition running in one of our local newspapers offering 2 people a 3 month programe of serious fitness training.
i'm the type that will occassionally go to the gym, take a stroll, but i entered because i would really really love to get fit and get into the healthy lifestyle (not that i'm unhealthy).
i got a call today to say i'm in the top 8 - i'm so excited.

Cool!!!
I would love to get in shape and really fit and wish I could afford a personal trainer, but they are quite prohibitively pricey!
Good Luck!

I saw the movie on a district convention night. When the lights came up in the theatre most of the audience were Dubs.
Ya think that when the lights came on, it was "new light" maybe? Anyway... more seriously - I watched this movie a few years ago, I was a faded dub, but not an "enlightened" one, so to speak... I would like to watch it again, now that you have brought this up!

Never Had Strong Feelings - Did You Experience that as a JW?
by cognac inwhen i went to a funeral and i cried cause i thought it was what you were supposed to do.. went to a wedding and didn't really care, just was happy cause everyone else was.. there was just never any strong feelings, except depression of course.. but anyways, did you guys ever experience that?
no strong feelings as a jw?
now that i'm coming out, i'm noticing that i'm starting to actually get more feelings... not sure if that's a jw thing or just cause i'm seeing a phychiatrist now... however, i do notice that with hubby, no strong feelings.

Cognac - Yes, I think that I know what you mean. Being emotional and saying what we were thinking as a kid was basically frowned upon in my family!
I have only started to get in touch with my feelings in the last 5 years, basically since I have had children. I am far more emotional and sensitive now. It is like having a child unlocked all those feelings for me! I am still learning to say what I think and feel confidently.

Patchy memories
by Princess Daisy Boo ini often think back to my childhood and discover that my memories are very patchy.
names, faces, school teachers, things related to being a brought up as a dub.
memories of some years are patchier than others - for example when i was about 10, we moved from the city that we had always lived to a small town, 2 hours drive away - we moved back to the city 3 years later - i remember very little of the first two years in that small town.. i seem to think that the years where the memories are patchy were times when i was quite unhappy.

Thanks Cognac!
Maybe I am just making a mountain out of a molehill. Maybe there is something more serious and sinister, or more likely nothing at all. I liked the theory by some that because our years as born in dubs were so "nothingy", just meetings, field service and conventions and not a whole lot of fun, nothing really sticks out. I think that maybe that is it. Now that I have realised that my memories are so patchy, I think that I will maybe start journalising things - I figure that will maybe help jog a memory or two?
Thanks for the thoughts!

I haven't spoken to a doctor- it is just recently that I have started realising that there are chunks of my life that I can't really recall. Like going onto facebook and looking for my old schools and realising that I couldn't recall a single person from my class for a number of years. Or sitting around with friends reminiscing and not having anything to contribute.
My sister on the other hand, who is still happily a dub, has loads of apparently happy memories of our childhood. Weird!
PTSD just seems so major!
