  i had a day off today and needed to get some errands done in my local town.

  2 carts have allocated here but i never ever see anyone out, even on very nice days.

  70% of the congregation don’t work.

  I have genuine mental health issues, PTSD etc…..so I can get away with quite a bit of fading. 😉👍

  i already have a friend who is trying to tell me that my mental health is causing my disillusionment with the jehovah’s witnesses.

  funny that a mental health therapist has told me my mental health issues are caused by being a jehovah’s witness.

  i’m still not going back.

  Thank you for all your replies and support. 🙏💖

  My Dad told me never to engage with terrorists. 😹

  I’m going to ignore any calls or messages. Give them nothing to go on as it were.

  Have a great Sunday.

  We used to write them for Not At Homes. I’ve not been to meetings or ministry for 8 months.

  I can’t be like that unfortunately. I’m too plain speaking. I’d blow my cover and get my ass kicked.

  Wish me luck in my continued fade.

  Lazy, discouraged or woken up I wonder?

  I think the organisation is losing its loyal followers.

  Nobody else understands

  if you once were fully pimi and truly believed jw doctrine to the core like i once did, when you come to the reality that it is not the truth at all it can be extremely devastating.. i think only other ex jws could ever understand.

  i wasted my entire life i thought the real life was yet to come to wasted the best years knocking on doors.

  now i’m so angry.. i can understand why so many top themselves when they realise it was all lies..

  24 years in but spent a few of those years inactive. I honestly thought it was the truth. I woke up in 2021 after update number 10 - the vaccine stick.

  I haven’t been to an in person meeting or on field service since the memorial. This week I’ve decided to leave. I’m not sending my contact information forms back to the secretary after the 2 congregations merged recently.

  They can get lost. I’m done.

  Life in a spiritual (UN)-paradise

  a long, long time ago, when i was young, i became a 'special' pioneer.

  it meant that i had to spend 150 hours a month, and i received a small allowance.

  i was then assigned to a small country congregation, in western nsw (australia).

  I’ve also noticed that. There’s more cliques in the Kingdom Halls than any workplace I’ve ever been in.

  The last meeting I attended in person was the memorial and the talk was pretty banal. Everyone was raving about it afterwards, which was quite weird. They all seemed to be speaking a different language to me. They’re like another species to me now. 😆
