When you move it is some much easier to fade into the sunset. Just go to a couple of meetings make sure your publisher card is sent there before you leave completely. You don't have to move far. Just switch to cong where you dont know alot of the people maybe 15 to 30 mins away. Dont ever go in service and if you wanna go to keep family ties intact just go on sunday listen to the talk and leave in the middle of the watchtower. if the brothers ever ask you anything about you meeting or field service attendance just say i dont like this hall it's so unloving and they will leave you alone.

If you decide to stay at your hall for awhile ihadnoidea ask yourself can you handle it when the people around you star asking what happened. Can you handle it when the elders wanna meet with you to encourage you. You go 1 or 2 months turning in no time or having 1 or 2 hours in service they will be all over you nagging you can you handle that. As a servant you are suppose set a good example for the congregation. You start slacking off for no good reason they will be curious.
Can you handle the announcement Bro. Ihadnoidea has been deleted and is no longer a ministerial servant.
If you plan on leaving the org and dont care what people think it will be a piece of cake. But if you have people there that like you or strong family ties in the org and you are around these people alot it's gonna be hard at times.

the best way to do it is to move to another congregation and if they recommend you refuse the appointment. just say i dont wanna be a servant no more. if they ask why just say i don't want the stress or if your circumstances has changed just say not at this time. if you wanna stay at the hall you are at it may be a little tougher. it may get emotional because you know all those people well. so they will try to lighten your load at 1st if you are doing alot. then they will ask alot of questions, they may even think you are getting into trouble and will wanna know why. so you better have a good excuse maybe you gotta work afternoons, or you are sick or depressed or something. it's just easier to move. maybe blow off a couple of assignments before you leave to show that you are not serious. And they will not recommend you anyway but they still are gonna wanna meet with you to tell you why and to try to offer encouragement.
