Feeling down.... BIG time
by Free!! ini know i don't post here often.... i just lurk around and read most of the threads daily (from my phone)....but today is one of those days that i just feel like "blah"... i dont care about anything, i realize i dont have anything, all my friends are busy or with their own set of problems... and i just dont want to bother then.. it sucks..... i just need to vent, let everything out... i really want to scream, but i cant... i wish i could run away from everything and just start fresh, i feel like a failure and i just dont like me at all....i was so down a few days ago i was thinking about going back to the hall, because i feel so lonely... but i refused to let my depression make me do something so silly... .
thanks for even looking at this thread... i just need it to vent or i am going to explode.... :(.

JW at work hitting on me!! (for real)
by Free!! inon another thread i mentioned i met some jws at work within the past 2 months.
well, 2 of them became particularly interested and getting to know me (a lady and a guy) the lady is really nice, and the only reason i know she is a jw is because she mentioned something about no b-days or christmas and that was it... she has not tried to preach to me or anything.... .
on the other hand... this young guy, well he is making sure he becomes my friend, asked me to be my fb friend and messages me everyday at work or on fb... now the funny thing is he told me he is a jw and about 3 times already he had suggested i read my bible (whenever i post status about being bored or unable to concentrate on homework), well yesterday he sent me a message that said "i would like to talk to you tonite, maybe we can hit it up" my reaction was .

JWs preparing for some "Special Top Secret Meeting" does anyone knows about this?
by Free!! ini was talking to one of my jw ex-friends today (we keep in contact every once in a while) and she was all excited telling me about the new arregment, a special meeting only for elders, their wives, pioneers and other sheep of "exemplary" conduct... (of course she was invited)..... something about one meeting from bethel that is going to be broadcasted to everyone at assembly halls and translated via radio for those who cannot speak english... is by invitation only (and they are "being discreet w the invitations to avoid offend the ones not invited") and they even gave them tickets they have to present at the door..... anyone has the scoop??

What can I do when I feel i can't keep going....
by Free!! ini have been having an awful week/month/year/life and i just feel like i can not move forward anymore... is like life is passing me by and i am just observing from the side lines.... i am so tired, i just want to sleep and never wake up..... has anyone felt like this?
i tried therapy (twice) an it did not work, i tried volunteering and surrounding myself with other people and things to do, and it works until i have to come home, then that feeling of emptiness returns.... .
i am so tired... i do not know what else to do.... .

the power of mind control, fear and loneliness
by Free!! ini was looking at the news and came accross this article... so sad.... :(.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2034074/ria-ramkissoon-speaks-time-killing-son-cult.html .
it made me think about the power of fear and loneliness... in moments of desperation we only see what we want to see and are easy prey to cults like the jws and the one mentioned in the article.. lives are lost and guilt stays w those who survived forever... i am so happy i opened my eyes... because even though we may think we would never act as crazy as it seems the lady in the article did... we never know..

Destroyed some important house-to-house records...hehehe
by Free!! intoday i was cleaining my house and found an usb stick a brother (ex-bethelite pioneer/ms) left here a few months back when they came to visit me for "guidance"... i had completly forgot about it... i remember seeing a note by my door a couple days later asking me if i found the stick, i didnt even pay attention to it.... i guess he gave up.... well today i finally had time to look at the contents and to my surprise i found files and files of house-to-house records... who lives where, who opened the door, dates, publisher, etc... being my "deep respect" for all teochratic ish (sense my sarcasm) i proceeded to hit delete, delete, delete... aww the awesome feeling... just wanted to share!!

Cut the cord!!!

the jws have been harrassing me lately (i faded, not da or df) and i am sick and tired of them trying to convince me to go back... so i told them to leave me alone (in a nice sweet way!!
