In May of 1999 I attempted suicide by over dosing on medication. I thank Goddess & God every day that I didn't succeed. At that time I was a member of the jehovah's witnesses cult. Around that time I was just realising who I was, that I was gay. For years I had heard talks & read Watchower & Awake articles condeming homosexuality as a sin punishable by death. After I heard a talk talking about how homosexuals are condemmed to execution at armageddon in a talk at a meeting at the kingdom hall (back then I belived thier shit) I was convienced I was condemmed to die so I attempted suicide by over dosing on medication. This was after over a decade of having drilled in my head by my parents & the WatchTower Society that God hates homosexuality & will exterminate all at "armageddon". I belive it really woke me up. Since then I've gotten my s--t together. I can finaly say I'm comfortable with myself & who I am. I'm very proud of who I am & make no appoligies for being gay. I belive that any orginazation that can't accept my sexuality isn't worth my time. My suicide attempt made me realise how dangerous this religion is!!!
