Lurker for a long time, finally decided to take the plunge!

by Momma-Tossed-Me in

i say this because i have been helped so much by the many posts that represent the way i feel about the wtbts.

it is good to know that there are so many people that feel this way.

i am currently inactive and dont comment but do attend meetings for the sake of the family.. my wife is still in and i have a daughter and one on the way.

"What kind of fool am I"

by mouthy in

i was driving the lady next door to garage sales, i cant get out of the car cos i am not walking very well.

but it was on a very steep hill.facing up hill,when she got back in the car i tried to drive forward, it kept going backwards downhill,it was awful,i thought i would kill the old lady, she was as white as a sheet ( she is 86) so i shouted out to a man, " can you help me please " he ran over & while it was slowly going backwards (hand brake on, )he jumped in & said well you didnt have the motor turned on (blush!!!blush!!!!

oh i guess alzhemiers on the way

Don't feel bad mouthy,when I was in my 30's me and my sister was at a bank cashing our checks,she was done first and drove next door to 7-11 while I was still in the bank.When I came out I jumped into the truck thinking my sister was still in the bank,and this guy comes out of the bank asking what the hell am I doing in his truckmy sister couldn't stop laughing the whole way home!

do you feel posting on JWD helps or hinders your recovery?

by burningbridges in

sometimes i wonder if posting on this site helps me "recover" from the trauma that the witnesses put me through, and have no doubt it does at times.

no where else is there such a support team of individuals who know personally what you've been through and how you feel.

but at the same time, i often wonder if coming on here causes me to obsess in a way, preventing me from "moving on" with my life.

Splashing my personal pain all over this forum,so that the lurkers seeking to find their victims,can read them,and maybe feel the guilt,that they should be feeling! The pain I splashed here is only a drop of the real pain for me ,and for others who posted here! "Get over it" some may say,but when you have pain that goes so deep,you just can't ! All we can do is live with it,and hope we can put it away,when it is forced to surface!For some like my sister seeking for help got her dead at 44,for my other sister sometimes the meds help,for me I try to ride the waves.It is the anger inside of us that makes the words seem like an attack.For those who think these words are persecuting,it is not! It is just hateing what is bad! Hillary-step,lazy-good for nothings,try broke for a word! How many record of achivements do you have in your work files,throughout your life? Oh yeah,I forgot your records are stored in heaven,for the hate work you've accomplished! By the way who's accountable for teaching these children how to hate?

My First Post!!!

by IreallydidwalkoutofaKH in

friends

after a year of reading all of your experiences and expressions i decided it was time for me to start sharing some of mine.

hopefully they can benefit others, like many of yours have benefited me!

being raised in the wtbts, the jehovahs witness docrine and culture really was the prism from which all of my experiences and understanding of life originated.

I heard the one about the smurfs coming out of the wallpaper,I asked her are you sure they weren't sliped some acid!

3 REASONS TO BE A JW

by thebigdebate in

jw
friends

i have a theory on why people become jw's.

there are 3 different reasons:.

1: you were born into a family of jw's.

beerose

me sorta born in,grandma was JW mom never pushed but tried to teach it,later mom BJW,me run far away from it.Husband job moved us to s**t town where everyone seems to be mean spirited walk down the street and say hi to someone and thier nose goes straight up in the air!praying mighty hard for help ,no lie knock comes to door,who else but the JW's so then I start believeing they were lead here!Only to find them to be mean spirited too.(must be in the water)breakdown,then having to have surgery for cancer,while recovering sister flips out winds up in state mental hospital,come to find she was also abused and knew I was too,never knew that.I didn't tell her about my surgery because I didn't want to upset her,so she died thinking ,I didn't care enough to go see her! (WHO SAYS YOU'RE NEVER DEALT MORE THAN YOU CAN HANDLE)?Another knock on door stupid me telling them why I stopped going more meanness,and now I'm here!

poem from an abused child "my hero or beast"

by beerose in

where is that hero,that i used to dream about?he would come and take me away from the beast,that is drowning me now!

he's taking me deeper and deeper into the black water below the surface.i scream out from my heart,why?why are you hurting me?why do you want me dead?

the water around me is getting darker and darker,i can't see,i'm afraid,i'm afraid to scream out!the water is so dark and dirty,yuk!

Where is that hero,that I used to dream about?He would come and take me away from the beast,that is drowning me now! He's taking me deeper and deeper into the black water below the surface.I scream out from my heart,why?Why are you hurting me?Why do you want me dead? I didn't tell,I didn't tell! The water around me is getting darker and darker,I can't see,I'm afraid,I'm afraid to scream out!The water is so dark and dirty,yuk! I ask why,why are you killing me?What did I do for you to hate me so much?I was only 4 when it started,that I can remember anyway,I didn't understand why are you hurting me?Tell me please,what did I do that was so bad?I didn't tell,I didn't tell!Please stop,don't hurt me.My tiny toes hit the bottom of the creek.I close my eyes and find a peaceful place,so peaceful!And than the tug came.No let me be,I found my peace my heart would scream! But wait,could it be?Could this be my hero,that I used to dream about,that would take me away from the beast! He had me by the hair,pulling me up,up,up from the peaceful dark bed below.I see it getting brighter as we get closer and closer to the surface.I would wonder what my hero would look like,when he'd finally come and save me from this beast! Who would it be,I open my eyes to see my hero,NO,NO,NO this can't be! It's the beast,could it be, that he had heard my heart scream,that I had found my peace! BeeRose

Women made to keep their place?

by paybacktime19 in

why can they preach door to door ,but not inside the congregation?

beerose

I wondered that myself,why woman were allowed to teach in FS but not at the hall? 1 tim:2,12 I do not permit a woman to teach,I even tried to use this as a reason not to go door to door!
