  Got my JC cancelled... (at least for now)

  by Sanchy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so my wife and i have been in the process of fading for a few months now as per my original post here.

  about a week ago, i was browsing some ex-jw facebook groups when i saw a post that linked to the crisis of conscience book.

  i said "f@(k it" and hit share on it.. a few hours later, i get a long text letter from my mom (who was a fb friend of mine) telling me the typical "good luck finding friends in the world" and how we have "nothing in common anymore"; basically, it was a 'farewell' text.

  I'd definitely reply to her message. Maybe just be cool and unfazed with her saying: "oh thanks for the heads up! I have also become very decisive and closer to Jehovah than I have ever been. Jehovah gives us so much hope for the future doesnt he? And I love you more take care!" 💝

  This will show her that you arent the one with the problem, and that you are fine with losing contact.

  Look into the seventh day Adventists. They're very similar to the witnesses and observe the sabbath. You seem very intelligent, keep coming back.

  2. friends

  well i just got back from 3 days in hell, and geez was this convention strange or what?

  im sure someone's probably made a topic about this already but i can't believe that there weren't any new releases besides the movies.

  has that ever happened before?

  The bunker video was encouraging to me! I want to imitate that kid who chose to stay behind and refused to follow his family to the bunker. I'm guessing he survived!

  How do you deal with depression?

  by BlackWolf in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm currently going through a bout of depression and my eating disorder has gotten worse.

  ever since my parents actually told me that they are going to kick me out when i turn 18 i've felt kind of hopeless about my life.

  my parents won't take me to the doctor because the psychiatrists won't have my "best interests" aka jw crap in mind, because really that's the root of all my problems.. i'm wondering if any of you guys have any advice with dealing with depression?

  I definitely wouldn't wait until 18 to start making moves. Now that you are under 18 there are lots of options available to you: take advantage of it (group homes, adolescent counseling, youth job placement). If you can somehow get to an emergency room you're half way there. Look up a united way number or equivalent. Best wishes and take baby steps. You're going to love the life you created for yourself.

  What is harder? Making a new jw or bringing one out?

  by EndofMysteries in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i find it interesting how stories of people waking or bringing one out are like the opposite of jw experiences bringing one in.

  maybe we should start an ex jw yearbook for experiences of those coming out haha.

  "Bible Teach" book study--is it real?

  by AmyWatson916 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  jw's want to begin a study through their new "what does the bible really teach?

  " book.

  should a non-jw study with them just to point out the contradictions and muddled thinking in the book?

  Hey welcome,

  Don't get involved, they just want to clock preaching hours for their timesheets. Don't give them a chance.
