i dont know if it was the same for you, but for me when i was a jw meeting days seemed to have a black cloud hanging over them.
on thursdays i knew i would be going to the meeting that evening.
that i would be getting into my meeting clothes at 6:30pm, leaving the house at 6:55pm and be sat in the kingdom hall from 7:15pm-9pm, then milling around for about half an hour before finally getting home for 10pm.
Yes. That light feeling when I have the wrong day, thinking it is Wednesday. Then realizing, no! It's Thursday! Meeting night!
A feeling of dread exactly like the picture you posted P.E.
But now apparently I am a super hero and can fly away from the meetings. (I actually was looking for a Native American name and did not realize my avatar was a different Wakanda, ha! I better go see Black Panther now. ha ha. Me get smart some day...hopefully)

Way to go. You are as real a super hero can get.
Welcome!
are there still child abuse cases being carried out in many of the bethel branches around the world?.

There are some more cases coming out soon
Why the two almost opposite posts? Looks like you are confused or trying to confuse.
The song rawhide popped in my head with Tolling replacing Rolling:

Just my two spidey cents about you. Time will tell.
Your leaked videos post has a Cedars video from Feb 9 and Susan Gaskin from January 26. https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5676660071333888/2018-leaked-videos Old news, just like click bait, fyi. Are you trying to be click bait? You made it seem like they were new. Then you tell us that you had an Egyptian type video, and it is coming out sometime in the future. What happened to it? You could have contacted someone else to leak it if you wanted. uggh. If you were sincere you should have been clear about the old videos, and everything.
this post hopefully will get you thinking about therapy, along with good mental and emotional health if you are dealing with the traumatic choices associated with leaving jw's, or if you are considering leaving.
because it is a trauma.. imagine a married couple in their late 30's.
because they took last weeks watchtower seriously, they have decided to talk to an elder in their congregation because they have practiced oral sex on each other, and feel a need to confess and get "spiritual help.".
Thanks Jeff. I've gotten some, but it is the push I need to make another appointment. Had some crazy stuff lately, lots of grief... like so many of us here. And I'm a PIMO in good standing! sigh.
it was pretty mundane for the most part, same songs, same outline.
the only new thing they added was the video at the end, where stephen lett speaks to the visitors and commends them for coming and recommends they go to jwdotorg and also start a bible study.
they also showed a bar graph with figures increasing every year for jws, memorial attendance and memorial partakers.
Ditto as dropoff. I think they just replayed last year's video at your memorial black mass or B.M. Crazy I do not remember him saying the number going up proves the end is near, but I try to zone out. He probably said in the same drone and same way he would say number going down proves end is near, so you'd have to be listening and thinking... like most of us here.
Oh, I'm starting to remember trying to not look at his face so I do not crack up.
i just saw zeb's ("i'm worldly") video entitled: "black mass mayhem" a few minutes ago.
no doubt this was what he experienced at a memorial he attended last night.

He seems sadder this year, and I feel for him. Go Zeb go. I love his videos. Here's last year's Memorial (less than 2 minutes, and with "are you hugging me?"):
hey guys!
i just want you guys to know that today is a really great day.
there are so many jehovah's witnesses that saw this documentary and were disgusted by watchtowers policy.
Bravo!
Thank you to all involved for your bravery and sacrifices of time and money.
It was the best investigative television report I have ever seen about JWs. So much effort behind one powerful hour.
so lloyd evans will shortly be releasing his new book how to leave the jehovah's witnesses.
i do enjoy his rebuttals and the stuff he manages to get hold of and leak.
but i'm struggling to understand what he could possibly write to merit a whole book.. all info on how to leave is right here on this forum.
How can he be making money off his activism? (apart from selling his books). Surely not enough to live on?
Patreon?
in the most recent assembly there were several heavy hints about not drinking alcohol at all.
saying that it doesn't give a good witness or would stumble others.. is this a new "unwritten directive?.
Is this a new "unwritten directive?
Massive hints against alcohol is the G part of the FOG. It also makes those who do not drink feel good, able to point fingers, guilt them along with WT, and hopefully wake them up. They know a lot of people drink too much to cope with the org.
WTF is this stumbling thang anyway? He's done something I don't like so therefore it's not the truth so I'm off? Seems pretty juvenile to me.
Then they can point to those that left and gossip, put them down, etc. "They must've been stumbled. He/she is so stupid."
BTW, the Shepherd the Flock of God's acronym is STFOG! Ha!
Just two cents.
march 24, 2018 at 7 pm, ctv channel in canada, the show w5 will air a new report on jehovah's witnesses.
ex-jws and others involved.
set your pvr..
Here's another from Christian Katja, and it has Avery Haines!
