Leaving the WT Borg is like leaving an abusive partner on so many levels.
You hear ""where else would you go?"
Thats a gaslighting,,thought-stopping technique!
i'm not sure if anyone remembers me since i do not post here much anymore.
i sometimes pop in around christmas time to see if anyone is interested in exchanging christmas cards like we used to back when i first posted on this site.
speaking of which, the holiday season will soon be upon us.. if you recall, i was married to a jehovah's witness and i had a daughter i spoke of a lot.

uh oh, looks like the mega thread gave up the ghost, so while i investigate / fix it just continue the discussion here .... it's been a long 9 years lloyd evans / john cedars.
@ Ron w Lol 🤣
“a circuit overseer started out by saying that on this last round of the circuit, the one thing he noticed the most...is that everyone is physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually drained...and that cuts across all barriers and demographics within the truth.
he then said that the one common thread that ran among nearly everyone was this: we feel guilty for feeling bad.
he said because we are told to endure with joy, our minds can cause us to feel enormous guilt over feeling this way...and then, my dear brothers and sisters...he proceeded to blow our collective minds.. he asked us to turn to daniel 8:27….
Maybe to resurrect this thread a bit is coming to realize the best way to not be "drained or tired"" is perhaps by not being there (at the KH).
I know sunk cost fallacy.
One of the worst feelings is realizing you've been duped,suckered,,,hoodwinked or whatever.
Numerous reasons why the $heeple look drained,, tired or whatever.
i haven't posted on here for years.
i also don't frequent this forum like i used to.. i have posted my story before, like 8 years ago.
i have been a baptized witness for the last 30+ years, but have not attended meetings in the last 15 years.
Just dont say anything,,,or tell anybody,,,,,if possible & you should be just fine.🐵
.....and bethelites, c.o.
etc., because they are all acting disorderly by being parasites on the backs of their fellow christians!

The internet is the ""little dog pulling away the curtain"',,exposing things.
Go internet Go!!!
A 'revealing'
a few old timers on here often refer to the dumbing down of the jw organisation.
what examples can you think of from over the years?
(i ask as an interested outsider who was never in).
Foolednomore:
Right.
There comes a time when we have to "put to bed'" WT stuff
That including youtube videos those kind of things.
Perhaps thats why some people quit doing videos because,,they just move on.

There was a youtuber recently who mentioned that referencing JWOrg material,,publications or whatever ""may cost you several I.Q. points",,each time.

LoL...
My 1st ever exJW video I ever saw was back in Oct 2007.
I never even heard of "Beth Sarim""
And I saw some video in Oct 2007 talking about Judge Rutherford his 12 cylinder vehicles and "Beth Sarim""
And,,,
Heard a reference to the Proclaimers book 1993,,,I went and took the book out and confirmed it AND,,,
Voila,,,that month in 2007 I became PIMO,, and somehow stumbled across this site 2 years later in 2009,,,and here I am.

They all know exactly what they are doing!!
And the rank and file believe it all.
Well,, a vast majority of them all,,exception of PIMOS
If anything the Borg will tighten the leg irons on the rank and file.
