See a therapist, please. I am so sorry this happened to you.
i wrote the following in my therapy sessions to treat my sexual abuse as an adult.
i thought that you should know that i recently discovered the reason i am weird and at times react strange there is a part of me that will never go away .... no matter how hard i try to control or hide it everyday it will always show it will always stay .. i. thought that you should know this indescribable grueling act of what you did ., that inside my adult mind and body you locked up and left for ever a trapped kid...do you know how hard it must be to accept that ?
do you even care ?do you ever feel bad when you look in the mirror who do you see when you stare?

a bit of an update, last weekend was my great grandmothers funeral, now, she was never a jw, and never was going to be, no matter how hard my mother, and grandmother tried to preach to her, she was the type of person that would kindly accept a wt or a book, but she wouldn't bother reading them.. anyways, she was a great wonderful and inspiring woman, the funeral was extremely sad, she had been a school teacher for over 35 years and a member of various clubs, so there were a lot of folks besides family that attended.. well, anyways i was there and so was my jw mother, stepfather, and grandmother, we were cordial, didn't talk about anything jw related because, it was great grandmothers funeral, not really a time to discuss how i am an evil sinner, or how i've escaped the org by avoiding df'ing, right?
wrong, as i'm sitting waiting for the service to begin, a lady shows up, now- i have known this woman for a long time, apparently she baby sat me as a small child, (like i remember?
) so she isn't someone i was ever close with, but knew of her or when she was around would say hi to and make small talk.. to give you a tid-bit on her personality though, she is one of those crazy jw's.. she claims to have been possessed by a demon, very very wacky on the prophesies, or gb talks, etc.
I am so sorry, and so angry! You certainly handled her with more kindness and restraint than I would have! So very sorry for your loss, Raven.
ok, so i don't know if this is "old news", and if this has been seen, and or mentioned already.
if it was, i do apologize, but i feel i have to mention what has been seen on tv, within the past 24 hours.. first off, i would like to say that i did not personally see this commercial.
however, it was seen by someone that i can verify 100% is telling the truth, as it was my own father who saw it.
I am loving it. There is nothing special about the JWs...they are just another crazy cult...THAT HIDES PEDOPHILES.
my wife found this 1/4 page ad on page 2 of yesterday's nj star-ledger, probably the biggest newspaper in nj.

I think they will win, but even if they don't, the word is getting out to the public AND the dubs by non-apostate means. I, for one, am loving that!

Wow, this looks better than most of their ads. So, I spoke with my ex-dub relative in NJ today. She bought a newspaper with the ad in it. When she spoke to her still-in sister, the sister said it did not surprise her...."it's the time of the end." Give me a break. I find this attitude unacceptable on so many levels...ugh. I'm not feeling surprised, just frustrated.
This must be the sheep that was sexually abused.

Oops..'note'.

Please not that the ad is also for those who "have information about sexual abuse or sexual misconduct within the Jehovah's Witnesses". Perhaps some of us can help with that.
