I know of a lot of deaths of young people in the "truth" that were highly suspicious and I think were covered over. Died of a rare flu according to the congregation but nothing said in the media about it.
I do know of a young woman who jumped off a bridge and a young guy that shot himself shortly after. Sad.
I've long suspect that - like child abuse - it happens amongst the R&F way more than most think.
I know of five:
1. a DF'ed teen
2. an older brother, shot gun with a note, left a widow and children
3. an older brother, elder or ex-elder, left a widow and grandchildren
4. a young husband
5. a sister that was abused by her husband and sisters felt uncomfortable around him, he was a Presiding jerk
I'm sure there were more that I was never told about. I heard about the cause of death of number three from and indirect source, not from the person that should have told me. The elder that told me and hubby seemed to act like he thought we were "strong" enough to handle the suicide of that man.
Unfortunately paranoid schizophrenic people are attracted and allured to apocalyptic end of the world cults, seen that many times being a JWS.
Since the WTS has frowned on or demeaned psychiatric practice over the years the cure to their problems was issued just keep on praying to Jehovah and their problems will cease to exist.
Bump
I just got a call today from an elder staying a sister in the congregation died that way. Her husband had recently been disfellowshipped and she had talked about divorcing him.
One of many harmful and dangerous things about the JWS cult .
And you know what the WTS top leaders dont give a dam , they're too busy playing we are god's chosen ones head to are power, this delusion fosters apathy and a lack of human compassion.
I know of one 'brother' who tried to commit suicide at least on 3 occasions, which I know of.
I know/knew a missionary who killed himself whilst away jehovahering.
