  this week i finally finished college.

  feels great to finally be completed.. i have to say that the process has been therapeutic.

  a year and a half ago when i started to go back i still defined myself in terms of my experience as a jw.. that is all gone now.

  Gray hairs and the Stress of Coming Out of the WTS

  to many, coming out of the cult- griping wts's enslavement, mind control and bondage to freedom have not been an easy journey.

  some have developed stress, depression, other committed sucide, had broken marriages, severed family and social relationship.

  still, others had to contend for years, the scourge of emotional turmil on their lives.

  Dearest NVL...

  may you have peace!.

  the most holy one of israel, jah of armies, has heard your questions and your accusations regarding him.

  his word to you, however, is that you have not heard his questions to you.

  ??? i am not sure who NVL is,,,but if you are talking about people on this sight,,,it is not correct what you are stating..."in a hurry to shed innocent blood",,,,,maybe......not that i am innocent,,,but for me,,,it was either put a gun to my head or leave the organization...YES,,,i had already purchased the gun....

  who is guilty of this SIN???? only god can make judgement....anyone else doing so is merely having a "holier than thou attack"....to judge without knowledge is DEADLY....to PRESUME that jehovah is speaking through,,,,is beyond SCAREY....

  without knowing emotional weaknesses,,,what each person may have gone through...is there mental disability that is not discernable to the public,,,the list goes on....

  i do not know who you are,,,but you have 4000 posts....you take your self imposed strength and pass judgement without accurate knowledge...i am so glad i am not you....

  My awakening and realization that I have been told a lie

  hi all, new posting, but i've been lurking for a while.

  i thought it was time to "come out" as it were and voice my story.... i was born into the jw cult surrounded by all of my jw family.

  grandfather was an elder for almost 40 years till he passed, both of my uncles are currently now elders and have been for the last 15 years.

  sorry if this starts off as a kind of a downer.. i am 29, and my husband and i have stopped going to meetings since last october.

  we live in mexico and used to attend the english.

  long story short, after realizing how many much we've been lied to we stopped going to our meetings, moved out of the territory, switched to spanish, and after a month of attending just vanished.
