the most of it and have it count for
something other than time spent

If You Leave The Organization Where Else Must You Go?
by minimus init seems the watchtower leaders believe that if you were to think about leaving the organization (and listen to "apostates") that you must have a place to go in return.
they feel you must have something, if you were to not accept the organization.
you need hope and belief in something.

Dissociative Identity Disorder and Therapy
by writerpen injust wondering if anyone has experience with this or knows an x-jw who has been diagnosed.
after years of trying to un-do everything through countless therapies, it appears this has been the problem all along.
i sit with my new psychologist, an expert in dissociative disorders, and she has all the jw lingo down, which tells me she's treated other x-jw's.

i have just recently stepped down as
a moderator on a forum for adult survivors
of childhood sexual abuse... within that
membership there was a significant percentage
of members diagnosed as DID...
none, to my knowledge were associated
in any way with the b0rg...it has been my great fortune and pleasure
to have become IRL friends with 3 people
who have "systems" so i have an outsider's
perspective.... a mono-mind who gets to
know the insiders.....not sure what it is you are asking, tho...
PM me if you want to

the death of a mother is the first
sorrow mourned without her~anonmourn, as you must
but try to find a way
to move forward into
your authentic life without
deep bitterness at what
was lost, because that is
one sure way to miss out
on what is right in front of yougodspeed you and all who mourn,
to a place when comfort is manifest....c/p

Democrats WANT Babies to Die
by AwSnap inhahahahaha!....i heard this from a jw today!
they said, "i don't know which is which, but one of them is more conservative (i said 'i think that's republicans) and tend to do things more along the lines of the bible.
and then the other party (democrats) is kind of wild and pushes for abortions and gay marriage.

hmmm... altho i consider myself a centrist
i will always vote to uphold "the choice"
even tho i never was in a postion to believe
i could terminate a pregnancy of mine...
but i got to decide that for myself...if men got pregnant,
abortion would be a free,
convenient and unquestioned -

can you tell me how to pronounce your name?

@ watson: lmao!!
@ beks: oh i knew who they were before i picked up...
i had googled concerned women and there they were!if i had had the time i would have played that hook
for a while longer, but i have 3 papers due by wed
and was finishing one last night so i just cut it short....one avenue i might have explored is to have asked
for the muslim women's counterpart... or buddhist
or whatever ... i think it so narrow to presume the
mark of xianity is on everyone (or should be *shudder*)the other might have been to say.... even though my son
is transgendered, it still says FEMALE on his birth certificate...
did you wish to speak to him as well?i think this woman didnt expect someone who has
actually been in DC, on the hill, in policy discussion,
with "congress", to point out fallacies of her presentation....my hero in the realm of "dealing with unwanted calls"
is tom mabe .... i am going to pursue this avenue of
benign retaliation as often as is oportune
