Thoughts about Depression and Anxiety
by flower inthis is mostly directed to others that were born/raised in the cult.
more specifically those raised in the cult who also suffered from severe depression and/or social anxiety disorder or any other mental illness (other than the normal probs that come with being in the borg).
sometimes i wonder if its just me that doesnt feel like a person now.

(((( Flower)))) I dont say things as well as all the above- ( put it down to old age) but when I was "ousted "from the Borg I felt just like you- I wanted to die- I knew I couldnt because I had children to consider (as do you) but it was awful -feeling unworthy of laughing-living- just being what I considered a nothing...
But I must tell you-your young enough to do all the things suggested to you- Go out & enjoy- join a singles group-join bowling groups- I was to old & too crippled by the time I was kicked out- but I am doing all the things I can do- Like getting together a support group- for me & them- I find the more I help others I get a great joy-
Get up every morning & talk to yourself( if you dont want to pray -as I do)Tell your self your lovely-a good worker- a good Mum. A true person-because you are- Talking to you on the phone- e-mails I am learning that you need to build self confidence- I have it now- That is why I can call myself Mouthy. Your allowed to feel cheated for a time- then you kick it out the door & say "this is the first day for the rest of my life" There will be ups & downs- but The ups will make you happy- It is worth it honey... Love ya. Grace -

My dear borgfree -You are too sweet a person to hate even the Borg-
Yes We were duped. Over & over again. But think if it -we would never have known each other if we were still there.
I consider you one of my family. Love ya lots........ -

A big "thank you" to everyone here
by Simon inin the past i have sometimes felt like i have to be the 'bad guy', so to speak, because i need to lock or delete topics, deactivate people, try and stop fights and such like - basically, telling people off and not being 'nice'.. well, apart from the odd heated debate and harsh word (and disruptive 'visit') i have not really had a great deal to do for the past month or two and it has been very nice - a pleasure to serve.. so ... i thought i should say a 'thank you' instead of a "stop it!
" for once

My JW daughter told me....
by Yadira Angelini inwe were driving in her car a couple of weeks ago, (the night i have visited her kh) and she told me, that she was going to postpone her november trip to italy; instead, she was thinking about going when the new system was here.
i asked her amusedly: "are there going to be airplanes on the new system?"...
she responded: "well.... we are going to be using our 100% of our brains".

The Watchtower reprints July 15 ,1894 .p1672
We see no reason for changing the figures-nor could we change them if we would.They are,we believe GOD'S dates ,not ours.But bear in mind that the end of 1914 is not the date for the beginning ,but for the end of the time of trouble"If any from Brooklyn/Georgetown is reading this. PLEASE tell me "Are you writing in a fog?"
Remember me- ? You gave me the left foot of fellowship cos I didnt see Jesus come in 1914- Grace Gough...........When did he REALLY come

Another gem from THE WATCHTOWER March 1,1923,p67
"The scriptures show that his second presence was due in 1874...This proof shows that the LORD has been present since 1874....."THE WATCHTOWER ,Jan 1924.p5
"Surely there is not the slightest room for doubt in the mind of a truly consecrated child of God that the LORD JESUS is present & has been since "1874"Wait a cotton picken minit they "ousted " me cos I didnt see him come in 1914---Is he playing Peek a Boo?

What about this one then, from their "Is This Life All There Is?"
.p46 1974 ed
"It is obvious that the true God,who is himself'the God of truth"& who hates lies,will not look with favor on persons who cling to organizations that teach falsehood.( Psalm 31:5) Proverbs 6:16-19 Rev 21:8 And,really WOULD YOU WANT TO BE EVEN ASSOCIATED WITH A RELIGION THAT HAD NOT BE HONEST WITH YOU?"
Flower I want to laugh- I dont know any novel who makes me laugh as much as the stuff I am reading in the "good old oldies" I feel like I am in a twilight zone.
