    We have been told that the announcement that "we are no longer of the Jehovah's Witnesses" will happen at the meeting this evening. So I will be celebrating tonight! LOL...

    In all seriousness, it seems like any other Friday, but inside I feel like this is a big step! It's the beginning of the rest of our lives....The sky is the limit! Our family will avoid us now (they have already begun that), and we lose all of our contacts with witness friends. But that won't kill us...it will only help us grow.

    Tonight we'll be going out and toasting to our new found freedom!

    Thanks for the support and for listening to my nonsense...

    Anyone else feel this way when they were disfellowshipped/disassociated?

    Do everything that you can not to play by their rules.

    Enjoy your freedom.

    I agree. Playing by their rules only gives them a power that they have no right to have.

    How appropiate on Good Friday... Then you can go celebrate Easter at the place of worship of YOUR choosing on Sunday!

    I don't know when mine will be. I half dread it and half look forward to it.

    Congrats! It truly is a great feeling to be free mentally, emotionally and also 'officially'. Enjoy your celebrations and mark this special occasion well. Your life starts here.

    Thanks everyone...

    I don't plan to abide by their rules, they no longer have any control over my life.

    Perhaps you can go to the meeting and when they announce it, clap, then stand up tell all that you are going home to celebrate!
