When you're always told the big "A'' is coming soon, not measuriing up, you're ''bloodguilty'' you can't watch this or do that, and mile - long list of can't do's,,,it's no wonder why people get depressed.

"I think somewhere on this forum there was recently posted a "letter" to the elders with a list of "social services" to share with the needy. No mention of applying to WT.""
The hypocrisy never stops. The Borg then encourages the sheeple to rely on the governments,,,which the Borg condemns.

Most children of Jehovah's Witnesses followers in Japan have been whipped, survey shows
by Rattigan350 inhttps://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2023/03/15/national/jehovahs-witnesses-whipping/.
the most cited reason was “napping or talking during congregations.” others included “answering back to parents” and “playing with a schoolmate.”.
some respondents said they have been suffering depression as a result of whipping.. “i still cannot forget the sight of children screaming after they were taken into a large room at a congregation when i was a child,” a 44-year-old victim said, stressing that jehovah’s witnesses should reflect on what followers have done.. in february, a group of lawyers started supporting those second-generation followers.. in a statement issued on march 1, the japanese branch of jehovah’s witness said it does not accept child abuse.. https://mainichi.jp/english/articles/20230315/p2a/00m/0na/006000c.

When I think of the My Book of Bible Stories book, Revelation Climax book, some of the WT studies, and now those dramatizations. Being raised a JW is indeed child abuse.
How can any child,,being raised a JW subject to that artwork and dramas,,,how can any kid having gone through that be called ''normal'' in anyway?

In the Witnesses,,, I would definitely categorize their marginalizing of groups, dfing, no-blood and harsh 2 witness rule,,,,,,absolutely as extremist. There's no way around that or sugar - coating it.

Elder asks my disfellowshipped cousin to leave house while grieving for his grandmother
by RULES & REGULATIONS infourteen years ago i started a thread on how horrible my disfellowshipped cousin was treated after his mom passed away and the terrible actions on the part of the elders at the funeral home.. 67. horrible conduct by congregation elders at my cousin's funeral.............. well, here we are 14 years later, and things haven't changed!.
my aunt ( who is my disfellowshipped cousin's grandmother ) was placed in home hospice care.
the nurse told her daughters ( who are jehovah's witnesses and live with their mother ) that their mom probably has 2 days left to live and that they should call the immediate family.. my disfellowshipped cousin and his sister show up in the early morning.

Wise counsel for JW's in latest WT
by BoogerMan injune 2023 study watchtower p. 13, par 15 - “we will not be fooled if we “make sure of or, “test” all things.”...we need to test what we hear or what we read to determine whether it is genuine.....instead of naively accepting what others the org say, we use our thinking ability to compare what we read or what we hear with what the bible and jehovah’s organization say.”.

"So I wonder how much of the depression and illness is the result of abusive home life,"
Probably all the time.
