Only a few days ago I was entirely lost and without hope the rug was pulled out from under me
by elderess inonly a few days ago i was walking around the house in a mindless wander thinking if i needed to seek professional help.
then i got the courage to seek the comfort of complete strangers on the internet and found a world of support here on this website.
thank you simon and whoever else has made this website possible.

Exactly!
I lay awake that night falling back wards like in a dream where you keep falling but I was wide awake. My mind running out of control, my whole life was based on a lie, my marriage chosen by rules, my wife captive to a ideology as myself, my chose of employment dictated to me by men who now seem like strangers, my world view on people, money, sex and life skewed.
For 9 years ago i was ill after an accident and was home booring. Checked some JW word out on internet.
-Stunned... 8 hours reading.. and i had relesed the cat out of the box...
The night and the days after this was exactly as the topic starter..
38 years of living partly right in the trash bin... -

"Fa La La"
by OnTheWayOut inout at the mall with mrs. otwo, she sees a shirt on the rack that was marked down from $25 to just $4.
she holds it up and says, "should i buy this as a workout shirt?".
i tell her "no, because as soon as you figure out what it means, you won't wear it anymore.

we will not see anything from the cutbacks today until the 2018 yearbook.
because the "year" is counted from sep-august
so all the drawbacks of special pioneers from country's, that will be effective in january, will not be seen in the 2017 yearbook when they still can take statistics of publishers from sep-nov 2015.
What we can see is number of baptism and memorials. highs of publishers can be 1,5 years old numbers depending on which month they take it from. -

Feeling rejected
by Esmeralda001 injust a little disclaimer: english isn't my first language (i'm from france) thus the poor writing skills.here is the situation: i'm not a jw.
however, i'm in the process of becoming one.
in fact, i'm studying with the jw's, and i'll proceed to become an unbaptized publisher as soon as i finish the first book.to make a long story short i was introduced to the truth when i was 18een.

Hi!
Sweden here talking..
"God helped me getting on my feet. I felt his presence in presence in my life. I know I might sound foolish but I really think Jehovah God is real"
No! You felt some energy or something that wanted to help you. That may be true... but don't asume that it is the JV:s "Jehova´h" that wanted to help you....
Please investigate that origin further before you take any decisions.
I was a "born in" in 35 years+ so i know what i talk about to get out of the cult... my wife and i have lost half of each others relatives to get our selves and our kids free... but it was worth it, any day!
Don't get your self fooled by idiotic promises of some "paradise" in the future!
Ask your self where the millions of the people are today after the book that was released to them 1918 that promised "Millions Now living wont ever die!"
I'm sorry.. we have all got on a scam....
