Were You A Happy JW or An Unhappy One?
by mentallyfree31 inwhen you were a witness, were you happy or miserable?.
i feel like i was pretty happy for over 20 of the 25 years.
only the last 5 years and especially the last 1-2 years did i really burn out and just wasn't that into it.

Do you ever actually tell your family you're not coming back? What do I do?
by stillAwitness ini've been "inactive"for four years now.
i am quite proud of myself for making it this far since i moved out on my own at 22 for the first time.
i've remained in school, try to live a balanced and productive life and still drive home to visit my parents at least once a month (they live 45 minutes outside of the city) luckily, my parents and i still remain close (as much as a baptized inactive child and still fanatic jw parents are able to be) and besides my mom's constant pestering about me attending meetings again and coming back to the troof, i haven't had to much stress from them or the elders.

Meeting other ex-JWs
by stillAwitness inhow do you meet other ex-jws in your town safely?
i've tried meetup.com, apostafests, but they always only have about 3 or 4 members and they happen to be far away.

Hello All old and new members..StillAwitness..4 years later
by stillAwitness ini became a member of this site at 20. i was baptized at 14 but by 16 i realized that the jw religion was anything but the truth and i made it my perogative to seek out ansewrs.
the internet can be a dangerous thing, the society always warns and i soon began to understand their fear against it.
after stumbling on many anti-witness sites like this one i was able to breath a sigh of relief and and realize "ok, i'm not crazy or going to burn in armageddon for feeling this way.
