Hey there, I know what you are going through. You are not wrong for how you feel.I've had my share of elders judging me, ignoring me and all the rest. But the number one thing is to see through their imperfections and know that Jehovah loves you and cares so much for you. The elders are imperfect men, who can act like real pricks at times. Yes it is Jehovah's organization but we humans are imperfect. Be true to Jehovah because you love him and try to get past all the rest. Pray to Jehovah and he will look after you. He may not miraculously make an elder show up at your door, but he can give you the strength to keep going, despite whatever Satan put's before you. Don't give up, just do what you need to endure. If that means going to see the elders and saying, 'why are you not encouraging me' or if it means changing congregations. Do whatever it takes just don't let imperfect men distroy your relationship with Jehovah. Don't get caught up in negativity. Know that you are not alone, really. I'm here if you want to talk.
