  lmao reminds me of the boards.

  i recommend it highly for a good laugh and perhaps we can learn how to "manage" our own anger.

  Cigarettes

  when you left the jw's did you start smoking cigarettes or had you already started smoking cigarettes before?

  and for those who became jw's later on in life, were you smoking cigarettes before joing the organization and was it hard to stop?

  and now how many cigarettes do you smoke a day?

  Yes I have and still am. I joined the jws coming from dysfunctional family. I fit right in. lol

  Therapy is something I will be working with for the rest of my life. Its about the journey and not the destination.

  I am a strong advocate for those who want to take care of themselves in engaging therapy. A huge gift to give to ones self.

  i'm probably going to regret this post in the morning... piph is in the bathroom right now, trying not to puke, and i'm barely able to compose proper sentences.. i left my credit card behind at a local club, with a tab open... but you know what?

  getting drunk is fun!

  i don't intend to do it often... it makes one rather disconcertingly vulnerable.

  Thanks for posting the link. It's sad that it has taken until the year of 2000 something to bring up the awareness.

  Coming from a dysfunctional family not having emotional support. I felt I had no place to go for support. I lived in terror from 6 yrs to 12 yrs old. How I ended bullying was by picking up a tree branch ( size of baseball ) hit the gang leader along side of the head. I was pushed to the breaking point of not tolerating being abused anymore. Scared the liver out of me. The kid turned out okay.

  After that point the abuses stop. On one level I understand those who take action against the bully.

  One of the healing tools in recovery working with a body worker (massage therapist). There are memory cells and issues in the tissues. It was pointed out I had a scar on my back and was asked what happened? I could'nt give an answer. After the denial lifted it was a injury from being abused by the bullies.

  Just recently here in Minnesota a HS student killed 2 students at a school. I don't know if it was a situation with bullying?

  The Minnesota schools are working with awarenesses of bullying now. It takes the whole community to work on these issues to make a change.

  i've been lurking on this site for the past two months and just now decided to post.

  i was raised a witness, and got baptised only a couple years ago.

  however, shortly after my baptism i started having doubts, and began to suffer from low self esteem.

  "You can take to water but you can't make him drink" It comes down to tough love. One can plant the seeds, some may spout, some may grow and some they lay dormant. Some will not do a thing. There is no way one can control anothers behavior . Its up to her if she wants to cultivate and nuture those seeds.

  The only control one has is with yourself.
