Avoid Going back to the JW's - Educate Yourself about Mind Control

by flipper in

jw
friends

i've talked with some good friends on the board about this before and we seem to be in agreement : one reason ( among many ) that some disfellowshipped jw's go back and return to the wt organization is because they are full of uneeded guilt or uneeded fear because they haven't educated themselves about how the wt society uses mind control tactics to deceive them into thinking they have " nowhere else to go " .

i understand that some dfed ones may go back to the organization for family and friends- however- it's an exrecise in futility because once you learn the truth about the truth you cannot undo what you heard.

so some may just go back and live a fake jw life to appease family- but just think of how that can damage a person's emotional and mental health playing the fake jw game the rest of their lives !

Hi flipper ....you are so right about still being under mind control.

*

I basically left in the years just after 1975, I was so unhappy &

depressed that I was becoming "weak in the faith". Tried to stick

it out but everything in my life blew up ....I stopped going to mtgs,

serve-us & association.

BUT..........I had no idea wt was wrong, I thought it was me.

*

Struggling with long hours of work, & trying to come back ...was just not

working. I wasted another 20 yrs fooling with it all!

*

Enter the computer into my life ........well......I finally found out where

the trouble was coming from. Found jwn & the rest is history!

*

So in my mind ...a big problem with jw's leaving, is that they don't

do the research & so they still don't understand that they are not at fault.

*

They keep throwing themselves into the wt trap over & over, like

a crazy bird keeps flying at a window, beating its head against the pane

untill it drops.

*

Fly free you Newbies ..........fly free!

Over 7yrs as a JW and I just found out I'm not supposed to buy Girl Scout Cookies?

by Maat13 in

i'm still in the matrix(the truth), but 'morpheus' and his team are valiantly working on a way to get me out.

in the meantime, everyday i am discovering so much about being a jw i never knew, like don't buy girl scout cookies, that i keep asking myself "what have i got myself into".. maat.

really lame for a first post, but i figure i should start some where.

Maat ......... watchtower needs to answer these questions.

Watchtower uses stats to show how very 'great' they are,

but what is the truth?
