Terrible news, especially as she did it to get reinstated. So sad. Better to be alive with a child and df'd than be dead and the child grow up with no mother. Awful.

Witnesses killed my friend today.
by WasOnceBlind intoday has been a horrible day.
what began as a day of joy finding out that one of my lifelong friends had her baby, turned into a nightmare when her brother called me to let me know she had passed away after birth.
i was in shock and didn't ask how.

Death of a loved one and faith
by ilikecheese inhey all.
i haven't posted in forever and a day, but i feel like this is a great place to ask this question because of so many people who are unsure of their beliefs.
my mom was diagnosed with stage four breast cancer about four years ago.

Hi ilikecheese,
So sorry to hear about your ordeal. I can understand the willingness to believe there is a place where our loved ones go. I believe and always have since I can remember is that once you're brain dead, there are no more thoughts left and no more existence.
I believe this as I have never spoken to a dead person who is in a happy place. I have never had any supernatural experiences.
I hope you can figure this out if you need to

Welcome Grey Goose,
Very happy to know you are awake, but also very sorry to know you have been trapped in a cult for three years knowing it's all nonsense.
But there are a few on the board that are awake and have been religiously attending WT for a number of years. For me I couldn't listen to the nonsense, and I am in constant pain being so isolated, but going to the KH would be worse for me.
I suppose we are all different and need to leave in our own way.
Welcome again

Im sick of my life
by BlackWolf insorry but i really feel like i need to rant right now.
recently my dad was made an elder so my family has been doing a lot more "theocratic" activities lately.
every morning i wake up and put on my itchy dress and stupid makeup and heels and then pretend that i love what i'm doing and that everybody is my friend when in reality i feel horrible and all the other teenage girls at my hall hate me for some reason.

I tried high school for a few months but my parents took me out for having too many "worldly" friends.-BlackWolf
Your parents were being controlling when they did this and no wonder it caused the next sequence of events. You are being abused, and I am very concerned for you.
I hope staying this isolated doesn't cause you any more mental issues. You need human contact and friends and fun.

Conclusion
by Esmeralda001 ini decided to put an end to my affiliation with the jws for good.
this decision is not the result of an irrational impulse.
it is quite the contrary.

Well Esmeralda,
That was a great thread to read and all your responses to other posters were really nice, you have made some friends here that truly understand your experience.
You have also learned a life lesson about inappropriate behaviour and adults. I think you manage yourself really well and you will go far in your chosen career. I am sorry your parents need looking after but I hope this will not stop you from achieving your career goals.
Well done

Blackwolf,
I don't know if you will see this as you're not on often, but I have followed your whole story on here. I am very concerned for you and you only seem to have this forum as an external outlet to express yourself.
You need a real friend. I hope you can build the courage to get out your house and mix with people your age very soon.

lol hahaha
It is funny but some JWs you can reason with and they leave. There is a whole exJW community that have left. So I say keep trying. It might just work

GTTM,
Sounds like you're not having a good day today. Some people can leave and live in a divided household. They can just enjoy their family and doing daily things.
I am divorced, and the divorce and custody battle is something I would not wish on anyone unless you're lives are at risk and children need to be protected form domestic violence or sexual abuse. Try and plan days out on Saturdays with your family and spend quality time doing activities with them to bring you all closer.

Umbertoecho here.
by umbertoecho inhello people.. i'm tired and a bit sick at the moment but i can't let anyone think that this is going to go away.... i am able to tell you a few things in order to prevent any confusion in the minds of those who are thinking that nothing will come of this arc;that nothing will effect the wtbts in america and other places.. i have been there and given my testimony.
helen milroy and her assistants were there along with another group of people who are there to lend assistance if you crack up at any time during or after the hearing.
i did not crack up but can see how this happens.. security is tight and anonymity is sacred to them as they want to protect all who come forward.
