  Suicide and JW'S

  by obiwan in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i have personally had experience with this.

  a long time friend committed suicide because of her husband and the problems they were having.

  he abused her and ended up leaving her, the elders wouldn't help out much stating that it was a marital problem.. she couldn't cope with him leaving, she was extremely dependant on him, she felt the only way out was suicide.

  Do Elders only verbally abuse women?

  by aunthill in

  i have read many horror stories here, of elders demanding "sister sickly with 10 children, i know you have been in a coma for 6 months, but surely you have time to report.

  and, by the way, why haven't you been to a meeting?".

  comments please.

  Very true - if they talked that way to me, I'd tell them right where to go... I did justabout one time, when that bastard grabbed and squeezed my arm - I ripped it out of his hand, as hard as I could... weiner.... (that was when I got the whole body of elders in trouble!)

  Like my last post in your other thread, you could disappear for months at a time, if they didn't like you, and not care...

  I'm glad that i'm free from their oppresive pharisee ways.... no more worries!

  whew.....i feel practically jet-lagged.

  what an interesting and unusual experience.. a good friend of mine who is based in toronto, but whom is originally from the niagara penninsula, has been dabbling in video and 8mm short film.

  he's also a local independent musician, and honestly, the nicest person you could ever meet.

  going through other peoples refuse is not exactly what you expect from jws.

  for a long time, i lived in a large apartment complex with several dumpsters on the property.
