  Bizarro things the person with whom you studied told you

  "traditionally, women in japan were to walk 10 paces behind a man.

  that is much more appropriate than what is going on here, what with women thinking they are men's equals.".

  (this from a 24 year old female pioneer)

  Back in the pioneer days I studied with an active gang member , and he told me that he was being shot at by a rival gang.......the last attempt was in front of his house a couple of days ago , the same house we were sitting in . and then he started telling me about how him and his boys were planing to settle the odds . lets just say I was totally at a loss at what to preach to him about first ........that was such a long study ..... two months later he went to prison......but not without receiving a new opening in his body .

  Social anxiety VS. Jw influence

  by NEWWORLDSLACKER in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  my question for tonight is this : after leaving the witnesses do you still feel disjointed from society in general ( and i mean the human race not the wt) ?

  im realizing that i still have quite a hard time in social situations where there are more than say 4-5 people .....i tend to get into a dreamy feeling state , and just basically out of it feeling .

  i tend to blame it on being raised a dub .

  I think Nosferatu hit the nail on the head :

  After I left, I made quite a few friends. However, when I'd get these friends all together, depression would hit me. I would feel that I didn't belong with them, and I should really go home.

  Thats it exactly , the feeling like you shouldnt be there and you feel as though you may need to run .

  Great comments from you all , thanks again

I tend to blame it on being raised a dub . now after being out for a few years im beginning to wonder if it is truly a side effect of being a JW for so long . having the -us against them-(truth VS. satans world) mentality.

  Are any of you going through any similar feelings ......or maybe im just starting to come to terms with where my life is going now ....I don’t really know.

  I truly believe the thought or even the notion of any kind of normality in a human , a sort of benchmark life/ mentality so to speak is to be quite a paradox........ with that said ..... no im not .

  I think I fit in under the " eccentric / neurotic " category.

  but here goes one o mine ....sorry in advance :

  Michael’s mad always at me and I think I might know why.

  I don’t meet him every Sunday he knows that I don’t try.

  He’s always looking down on me saying I saved you from your sins,

  it all seems so unimportant once the final silence wins.

  I followed you for eight long years , you slapped me in the face.

  Will i find some piece of mind , in the fate of the human race?

  You dressed me in your clothing and made me seem so pure ,

  you tell about the future and the sickness you’ll cure.

  Then I woke up as from a nightmare and realized im all alone ,

  how these wounds don’t heal , and I may never find the home.

  So when they ask you why im so bitter , why I hate and always seem so mad ,

  because I know my children will one day exist like my dad.
