2. experiences
one of my strangest things that happened to me during my life as jw was that i loved (and still i do) video games.

i started playing super mario bros in a nintendo entertainment system (nes) from my cousin and from there i developed an attachment to the video games.

i remember that i asked for a gift the nes to my dad and my wish come true!

good evening everyone, i go by issa.

as many former ex-witnesses, i "woke up" from believing that the jw org is the "truth".

2. experiences
just wanted to share with you some good news i'm really excited about.

i have been accepted for university to study psychology and counseling.

my goal is to become a counselor and, in time, to specialize on treating those who have left high control relationships/groups like we all did.. it'll take a few years before im qualified but studying in university has been a dream of mine since i was 12, which was systematically dashed to pieces by watchtower.. .

Episode 6 - Life Gets Dark As One Of Jehovah's Witnesses - Is Live Now
by dubstepped in
1. jw
2. experiences
episode 6 of this jw life is now live.

it is a brutally honest, at times dark, look into what it was like behind the scenes in our lives.

people don't talk openly about ugly parts of their lives and it leads to other people feeling alone when theirs gets ugly.
