She said she would be leaving today. Guess what?! SHe is still here! Outsmrtsystem I'm trying to keep my cool and I don't think she knows anything apostate at this point. All she knows is that something is wrong and she keeps trying to fix it guessing its just me being crazy bipolar. I drink a lot when I'm around her for obvious reasons so she probably thinks I'm an Alcoholic too. With all those damn meds she takes I'm more sober than her when I'm drunk.

It's only been a month or so sense I fully awoke to the fact that my whole family for 3 generations has been fully entrenched in a cult. I went threw terrible drug addiction like withdraws, panic attacks, suicidal thoughts etc etc etc. For about a week I could barely sleep and then another all I wanted to do is sleep. My wife confronted me thinking I was cheating on her because of suspicious behavior and I spilled the beans causing us both more pain. Our relationship hasn't been the same since. I have gotten zero sex as one major indicator. She wants to forget what I said about Evolution being an obvious fact, It has all the universal patterns of cult behaviour and that the WT doesn't have our best interests at heart. She has tried to push these things beyond her conscious recall I think. She also tries to rationalize that I didn't mean these things because I was having a bipolar mood swing. (I'm diagnosed bipolar I) She cries sometimes for random reasons in the shower where she thinks I can't hear but I can hear her sobs. Her mother who is an extremely Mindctrld JW has been here for almost 2 weeks making things worse. I refuse to study for meetings so she has usurped my headship on that so far. I don't go to meetings but she insists on it so my wife goes after not going for about a month. MIL insisted on reading from the Draw close to Jehovah book after dinner today. It was a section about how us poor JW's are beat down with problems and that Jah is hearing our prayer, kind and loving and reading hearts blah blah blah. Her reason for reading it was that she knew that we all suffered from mood disorders and all have to take drugs to correct it. ISNT THAT A COINCIDENCE!? MIL takes an anti anxiety med, an antidepressant, muscle relaxers, Ambien hydrocodine, diabetic meds and a mood stabilizer. My wife takes prozac and I take Ambien and a mood stabilizer. With that much RX I don't think she would know the truth if it walked up and slapped her in the face. Anyway It's funny how she didn't pull out the bible instead? I could have dealt with that because at least that wasn't written by the insane GB! My wife ate it up and became kinda emotional but thankfully didn't fall to pieces that time. My response was just to stiffle my anger and frustration as my MIL tries to take back her daughter from me right in front of my eyes. MIL was supposed to leave today but yet she is still in the next room reading a book and petting my cat. All she talkes about is WT this WT this this brother did this and this sister said that and I heard this in a talk and isn't that so comforting. BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH! It was annoying before I woke up! I'm at my wits end and seeing red flashing lights. Danger DANGER will robinson! I feel so trapped and in this sort of twilight zone.
Oh wait she just did something else really stupid just now. She walked into our bedroom and flipped the lights on while my wife was sleeping just to ask if she had read her magizines for field service. She said flatly NO! oh god turn the lights out MOM! I jumped all over her and told her never to do that again. I asked her if she would like it if I did that to her. She then said that that is my daughter and I care about her very much but don't worry I'm leaving tommrow and you won't have to deal with me anymore. I said well that is my wife and I'm telling you don't ever do that again! Hows that for passive aggressive.
if you don't already know the backstory its all here. http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/members/private/224618/1/spilled-the-beans

It is insulting to anyone who reads the garbage. Insulting to your intellect and it isn't even fun like dr seuss! I mean if they would just make it rhyme it would be fun to read. *snickers*

*gulp* JW's always prey on the Old, Young, niave, and just plain dumb. I hope that you are able to reach her because the alternative is unacceptable. You definately cannot go at them full force because they will be already telling her she is going to be attacked when she starts studying. JW's are trained to cover there tracks and preemptively prepare there study's before worried family members try to talk some sense into them. Your job is going to be tricky. The Cult has perfected the technique of pulling people in over the past 100 years or so. Don't blame the people, the people are under mind control and are only doing what they are programmed to do.

Questions From Thinkers
by Perry inhow do you explain david's graphic portrayal of jesus' death by crucifixion (psalm 22) 1000 years before christ lived?.
how do you account for the odds (1 in 10 to the 157th power) that even just 48 (of 300) old testament prophecies were fulfilled in jesus christ?.
in what sense was jesus a "good man" if he was lying in his claim to be god?.

A missing husband or wife.
by thomyorke indo you remember, in which "reader's question" was an article about cases, when a husband officially declared as a missing?.
(probably he is dead or captured by somali pirates...).
i remember, that article was very strange- there was stated that it would be possible to make a divorce.... but if such missed person will "ressurect", this couple must get married again!.

Is the WTS and the JW's going to collapse in 2014?
by braincleaned intwo years to go, and an embarrassing whole century will have gone by after 1914 -- the date of armageddon.
in no world is that a "short period of time".... .

if there drop 1914 they will lose just about everyone with an iq above 90. i hope they do something that stupid so people can look at one another in confusion. this would scream obvious false prophet alarms one would think.

guilt tripping isn't working!
by thecrushed ini had a ms come into my work today to encourage me to come back to the meetings.
he asked me how i was doing and i smiled real big and told him i was doing wonderful!!!
he was completely confused because i think i was supposed to be feeling bad and guilty for not going out in service and feeling like the wrath of jehovah was upon me.

whahappened I've had the same thing happen to me. No one calls accept the elders to be nosy and I usually let it go to voice mail and then erase it. 2 weeks after spilling the beans to my wife she has convinced herself I was just having a little bipolar fit. One day the elders are going to force my hand and the sh**t will hit the fan. The Jahooba mafia at my hall doesn't like people fading. They will come to your work constantly and upset my boss because they distract me from my work. My dad has started to drill on me about the meetings and attempt to guilt trip me but only succeeds in pissing me off. I'm still in limbo with whether I can eventually turn my wife and hopefully with time I can accept the consequences and have courage to stand up. I want them to know that I'm happy outside of the "cult" though. I'm trying my best not to become bitter.
