  Dealing with JW anger

  by loosie in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  ok i need some suggestions form others here on how to deal with anger as a result of being a jw for so many years.. i am normally an easy going person.

  i am friendly and easy to get along with as long as you have a sense of humor and aren't a sexist.. i am trying to live well by finally going back to school and no longer living for this world to end.

  i am much happier because of leaving the jw's.

  Hi loosie,

  I struggle with anger off and on too. I'm glad to hear that you are in school. It is a good place to find new friends,

  esp. the ones who don't know what a JW is!

  Hang in there

  How Do We Help JWs Who Come To This Site?

  by minimus in

  when a witness checks this site out, they could think it's a jehovah's witness friendly site.

  the fact is this site is for anyone interested in jehovah's witness things, whether they are still witnesses or once were or just want to know about witness life.. what positive ways can we help a witness on this site?.

  Personally, I need to try and not post ANYTHING when I am really angry. I have been good at that and then I lost it. I need to get away from my computer

  and not post. Guess I'm still too angry at what has happened to me when I was a dub.

  Think I will just pack it in. Emotions are still raw. Just not post.

  "Stone the infidels", erm ... I mean apologists (IMPORTANT)

  by Simon in

  1. forum
  2. announcements

  i've noticed a trend lately which is becoming annoying and is definitely something we want to address and put a stop to.. we'll see topics or get pms about some 'evil poster' that is making abusive posts or harrassing someone, driving people from the forum, yada yada and so we look ... and find nothing.

  we ask for examples of their behavior where they have harrassed people and it goes rather quiet.

  in fact, we find just the opposite - people being respectful and in return getting abusive posts directed towards them.. and why the hostility?.

  I'll be more freindly to apologists, but I don't think I was unfreindly to the newbies. If I was I'm sorry.

  i just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone on the board.

  i haven't been here that long but from the time i've spent here, i feel very comfortable.

  i've been on boards before (witness ones) where everyone is so opinionated, heartless and holier than thou....but this one is so different.

  Mouthy's 80th Birthday ---- Thanks to all

  by gusgus1 in

  2. experiences

  great big thanks to all who participated in my mother's 80th birthday.... it was great, and she was trhilled..... she had a smile on her face the whole day long.... so many showed up to celebrate, and those that couldn't shared by phone calls, cards, flowers and gifts.

  the memory album i put together for her turned out great, so thanks to so many who sent me a page to put in, it's a memory she'll have forever.... all her children and grandchildren were there, except for the ones in montreal who are still jw's.. .

  thank-you to all, a million times.
