  The toll on women..

  by freedomisntfree in

  this has probably already been discussed to some degree on here.

  but i think its probably a commonly noticed thing that jehovahs witness women and becoming more and more unstable mentally and physically as a whole.

  they seem to suffer from a bizzarely high percentage of scent sensitivities, chronis fatigue syndrome and the like.are they making it up for attention?

  I remeber wanting so bad to just stay home and not go to the meeting I would feel physically sick (pain/nausia or some other symptom). Part of me knew I wasn't really sick and I just couldn't stand going to another meeting, but I never really thought about it like that while I was in. I have to agree with the undiagnosable sickness theory, one can only take so much of that BS before you need an excuse to miss meetings. If the mind makes the body sick then they can miss meetings with no added guilt.

  Hey elders, how does it feel to be nothing but yes-men, wimps, puppets for the GB

  all you lurking elders.

  you must know you are basically nothing but yes-men and slaves of the gb.. look at yourselves.

  you have no authority to do anything unless you are given that authority by your leaders.

  I think it safe to say that the majority of the JW's are dysfunctional. The Society not only breeds dysfunctional individuals and families, theyattract them also.

  Well said RR

  I didn't have it in me to do that. I would have offed myself if I had to go to another meeting or assembly, not even for my family.

  Letter to former JW friends

  my mother has been burning to write a letter to old friends among the witnesses.

  we move around so much and were never great at keeping in touch.

  no one knows we've left the b0rg, but we don't care who finds out.

  Great job on that, I would like to send that letter to some of my own old JW friends. Thanks for sharing this, I can't think of anything to improve it, it is really well organized.
