  ABUSE

  by CHICKEN LIPS in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  you know - being just a newbie here i have to say that even though many of you have been mentally put off balance (just like me!!

  ) that you all sound really nice and i want to be a part of this so much - it blows my mind..... one thing that i found very hard to deal with was the abuse that my two sisters went through at the hand of my uncle a jw.

  the family covered it up and that man is still serving in another congregation - every time i see him with young children around him i feel sick.....i think he should have been removed!

Disfellow-shipped!!

  It really wrecked my family life....

  When it was brought up - years later he denied everything!

  are you a bit oversensitive?

  do you tend to take offense easily?

  do you find yourself charecterizing people by their race or nationality?

  Hey Guys,

  Back from a tim-tam moment....do you guys have Tim-Tams in USA??I just read Double Edge's comment re Armageddon and I have to say that I really do think that if you are raised as a JW (is this what you guys call a dub??) then you have a very slanted view of the world and also a very frightening one! I can remember being about 6 or 7 and having my father who was/is an Elder telling me about Armageddon coming and the absolute terror it was going to be......scared the pants off me....nightmares the works!!

  I believe that the "glasses" I was given to look at the world have seriously messed with my ability to come out and say "OK I will go out tonight have a few drinks, maybe a cigarette (waaay BAD) and get home and enjoy it"! Instead I feel so guilty that the next time I hear about the world events changing I FREAK OUT DUDE!! I literally feel like getting down on my knees and begging for my life! Sad yeah???!!!

  Hmm anyway - what is a dub...what is the borg (apart from star trek....???)

  Cheers to all of your excellent respones and understanding...

  YEAH I know this can be really confronting! I have been "living" with this for a few years now and find it hard to get through sometimes....I also missed my family.

  But yeah I am sure will survive!!

  Amazing to talk to people who understand....

  cripes!!!

  i've got the mother of all headaches thats lasted for a few days now.....you know the type of one that makes you think brain tumour/meningitis/encephalitis/ i'm about to have a stroke, what if i die in the night and they find me 2 days later etc etc........reckon it must be stress.

  why do i always think the worse when i get something like this?...it always gives rise to feelings of panic/anxiety and they are the worst feelings ever.
