Steph,
Just remember: the best thing about beating your head against the wall, is how good it feels when you stop!
Hang in there, it will get better.

okay, i'm about to engage in a major word vomit.
just giving you fair warning as your time may be better spent somewhere else.. so, i'm sitting on my lunch break, bawling my eyes out, and writing on this forum to people i don't know yet probably have a great deal in common with but at the same time, used to scare the daylights out of me.
for years, i would come across this forum and 'lurk' awhile if you will, or see things on youtube.

from the time i was a small boy - i loved rock n' roll music.
beatles, rolling stones, led zeppelin, hendrix.
i started getting slighted for the music i listened to as i lay in my bedroom listening on headphones to led zeppelin's song " black dog " at age 14 with my elder dad looking suspiciously at me as i'm rocking out .
I may be the only person to wear a Dead Kennedys tee shirt while rehearsing for a drama. I was always a rebel.

i am on a pension, so i could not afford to pay for a psychologist, but my good doctor referred me to a free clinic for people on a low income, for my anxiety and depression, so i have finally got my first appointment with a psychologist since i started my fade, so where do i start trying to explain the mental trauma i feel as a fading jw?
i would appreciate your advice.
simple .
Tell them you left a cult, and are probably suffering from Compound PTSD.
That would be a good starting point.
Good luck,
JK

It was fun singing (screaming) with OTWO on the loneliest road in Nevada with the top down on the Jeep.

One funny thing is that I taught my mom to say cool stuff. I told her if I ever asked her who her favorite group was, to just say "The Rolling Stones." It really gave her street cred at my hall. That is until she messed it up once and said "The Rolling Rocks." So she got beer confused with it, they were both good.

P.S. I just asked her again and got "The Rolling Rocks."

I had some of the same shit but later.
I listened to music like you did. In fact we would have Dub kid parties and played it on the loudspeakers, Zep, Black Sabbath, Elton, Jethro Tull, etc. No elders ever went ice skating so no repricussions.
Later on, I had an eldumb that bought a new car with an 8 track player. He asked if he could borrow an 8 track to play. Figuring he would be a douche nozzle, I loaned him Jeff Beck (an instrumental). He still busted my chops because one of the songs was "Constipated Duck."
Total assholes they are. By the way, I am going to see Jethro Tull with OTWO in April.

i mean this with all due respect, i would like to hear from genuine people who think jw have it wrong and then what is the truth?.
im not talking about silly little quibbles here and there.. is jehovah real?
the the bible is word?
"The Truth" is what you make it.
JK
yes friends it is too late for most of you to return to jehovah's org.
based on the new garlic bread parable in this month's broadcast with the illustration using loaves of bread.
it is obvious that the doors of the arc has been closed shut by jehovah's hand for some of us.. according to the new parable that can be found on jw tv.
Do the three loaves represent "overlapping" bread?
