Oh yes, I remember the feeling well. That and coming home and curling into a ball sobbing. You can't continue to expose yourself to that turmoil longterm.

Flipping out at the meeting
by BU2B inunfortunatley, i still go to many meetings as i am working on getting my wife to wake up.
for the most part i maintain my composure but there have been two or three times when i actually have gotten so upset and the frustration built so high that i have come very come close to actually slamming something down or pounding the table in the literature room, or shouting out how i felt!
has anyone else felt this way?

An offer from the Governing Body
by irondork in.
the governing body took us along to an unusually high mountain, and showed us all the friends and family members that had been ripped away and they said to us.... .
all these people we will give back to you if you fall down and do an act of worship to us.

When will you NOT go anymore ?
by Phizzy ini ask this of all who know ttatt and yet still attend, i am interested, when will you judge it is the right time not to go to meetings anymore ?.

I knew TTATT for 3 years before I left physically. It was still a horrendous process and there's never a 'right time'. The repercussions were as serious as it gets and to be honest the anguish of attending meetings before knowing what I knew was nothing compared to the six months following our exit.
I would never urge someone to leave before they are as prepared as they can be for the fallout. You have to do what's right for your circumstances.

I cried when the young photographer left. Seeing his wonder at being in the outside world was fantastic.
