confused teenage witness
by smias03 inhi everyone, this is my first post.. i have come to this site for almost 2 months but have been too scared to post... don't really know what i'm scared of but i even set up a different hotmail account when i registered... anyway, i'm a 19/f who was raised a jw (baptised a year ago).
i was homeschooled, and basically had no communication with the "world" even though my father is an unbeliever.
my parents were divorced last year (unscriptual divorce from my jw mother).. and now i'm living with my dad and have not spoken to my mom, not because i have doubts about the truth (she doesn't know) but because she was a hypocrit and liar through the divorce.

I live in south florida, and I am currently enrolled in community college, but I'm really shy/quiet so I just go to class and leave right after (probably what most witnesses attending college do). As far as a job, I was working as a nanny for a family friend, but recently quit so I can find a job where I can meet more people, and maybe develop some non-witness relationships ... Thanks for all your comments, it really means alot to find a group I can talk to without feeling like I will be judged.

Hi everyone, this is my first post.. I have come to this site for almost 2 months but have been too scared to post... don't really know what I'm scared of but I even set up a different hotmail account when I registered... Anyway, I'm a 19/f who was raised a jw (baptised a year ago). I was homeschooled, and basically had no communication with the "world" even though my father is an unbeliever. My parents were divorced last year (unscriptual divorce from my JW mother).. and now I'm living with my dad and have not spoken to my mom, not because I have doubts about the truth (she doesn't know) but because she was a hypocrit and liar through the divorce. Now that I have been "drifting" I see the hypocrisy in the society, and want to get out. My problem is that being raised a witness, I had only one friend and didn't really have a social life other then the occasional "get-together", my friend stopped talking to me when I started missing alot of meetings, so I've been hanging out with other "drifters", but find it hard to make friends with non-witnesses. I'm looking for advice from those of you who have have left in your teen years.. how did you completely break away? I'm really scared and don't know if I could ever adjust to being completely "out there", and I also don't ever want to regret leaving.
Thanks for reading,
