Years ago I knew of a Canadian elder who was young , I believe the youngest elder appointed at the time. He was kind of like a boy wonder. Anyway, he grew a well manicured beard. He was promptly talked to by the other elders and was told he had to shave it and stop being a rebel. After much letter writing to the Society, the elders in the local congregation prevailed. He then shaved it off and all was good. The problem was it wasn’t good for him! He couldn’t take the fact that he was told he couldn’t wear a beard. He got sullen and pretty negative and eventually just stopped going to meetings.

Do You Know Of Anyone That Has Seen A Therapist Because Of Being A Witness?
by minimus ini really don’t know of many people who got into therapy because of their jw dealings but i would think that if someone remains depressed or severely affected by their past witness life, it’s not a bad idea to speak to someone to get you on the right path.
i think this site has been very therapeutic for many over the years..

Hoser, I remember years ago of a “ therapist “ who said the same thing. He had a pretty big “practice “ and wasn’t an elder but was treated as one by the congregation. Personally I think he was a con artist! Who in their right mind would sign a statement saying whatever you tell a therapist is not protected speech? Only a JW would consider it.🙄

Someone can fairly argue that the cop killed him since he was found guilty. I do think that the ex cop may be successful in a new trial if it’s granted but meanwhile..

The good Doctor finally admits the Wuhan lab may be the source after all of the Covid virus. Trump said it from the beginning and he and anyone that agreed with him were castigated and maligned. Suddenly the press and the scientific community are second guessing Themselves.
