It really doesn't have to do with my self-esteem and my depression. I'm generally positive and self-confident. It's more like a trigger that gives me these high emotional spikes that I have difficulty controlling. They cause me to do stupid things.

I've been playing phone tag with the counselor to get a session in. I just figured out my problem like yesterday, and I'm dying to get myself on the road to recovery. This problem has been a plague for the last 4 years, and now that I finally know what's wrong with me, I'm determined to get it under control. I picked up a book called "The Journey from Abandonment to Healing" which is sitting on my Kindle, waiting for some child-free time to focus on it.

I'm in Canada. It doesn't necessarily have to be in person. I'm wondering if there's a message forum dedicated to it.

During my marriage, I was alone almost all the time. When I would ask my wife to spend time with me, she had better things to do.
After doing some internet searching, it seems that I have abandonment issues. I need to get myself on the road to recovery because I can't keep ruining relationships with good people. Does anyone know where to get some good support for this?

This is a story about a (former) elder in my KH. This was the PO for many, many years. He used to always call me when I didn't turn in my FS report. I attended a funeral at the KH 4 years after I had left, and he greeted me with a 'hello', but just left it at that.
Three years ago, his wife died of cancer. According to the rumors, he ended up with a worldly girlfriend for a brief time. He ended up getting DFed. He returned to the KH to repent which of course meant sitting in the back and having nobody talk to you. He did that for two years and never got reinstated. He has apparently ceased going to the KH now.
I feel bad for him and tried to see if him or his son were on FB. Nothing. The latest rumor was that his son (who is a baptized brother) showed up at the KH without a tie on. Perhaps he's doubting now as well???

How many in the cong visited you when you started fading
by joe134cd ini'm just curious speaking from a person who has stopped going to meetings.
i have heard reports from inactive ones (or from ones who the elders suspect of going to the dark side) of having so many visits from elders (cong members) that it got to the point of harassment.
surprisingly i have to say from personal experience and from numerous others that i have spoken to that the exact opposite has been the case.

Let's see... I had people in the congregation calling to talk to my mother, and when I answered the phone, they would tell me they missed me. After a while, I quit answering the phone if it wasn't for me. There was also my shepherding call - if that counts. After that (and after I moved out), an elder who gave me a set of stereo speakers years ago came by to take them back. In the JW religion, everything is conditional.

So, since 2014 is the same as 1914, does that mean the WTS is celebrating Jesus's 100 years on the toilet throne? Or is it merely evidence that they recycle the same bullshit over and over again?

No more circuit assemblies
by justmeok ini heard from a reliable source that there will be no more 2 day assemblies, but instead 2 one days each year.
anyone heard this yet?
supposed to start new service year.

There wasn't anything special about special assemblies anyway.
It makes me want to cry, thinking about the wasted weekends I sat in a stinky assembly hall. Time is the most valuable thing we have as humans, and so much of it got wasted on JW shit. And now that I've been 18 years out of it, they cut out one assembly day (and let's not forget elimination of the book study a few years ago).

Ummm.... Jesus is missing something from that picture. Looks like he's supposed to be holding a snake, but the stupid art department forgot to draw it in :(

My Former Congregation is Dead
by Nosferatu inwhen i left the jw organization, there were about 80 publishers in my congregation.
within the last month, the congregation was abolished because it only had 29 publishers in it.
the apparent reason for this was one elder on a power trip.

It's kinda strange. I spent 13 years being part of that congregation, and now it's history. Oh well, such is the JW religion.
