For 5 years I hung on for my wife's sake.
My Mom died, and I saw how shallow friendship in this religion is,,, that helped me to shut the door on them for good.

It would be two or three years. I prayed and studied my arse off trying to overcome the 'fleshly man'.
after that i concluded i must be really wicked because it did not work and basically stopped trying. Quickly faded, marriage collapsed.
It took twelve more years before i realized that i was not the problem...

Broken Promises
I gave it a year, from the time I realised something wasn’t quite right. I tried to pray for strength, spiritual help to be better at my personal study etc etc… At times my body wanted to walk out the door but I literally held on to my chair so as to not walk out.
Finally I couldn’t take it anymore, so I left for good. Sucessfully faded for the past 10 years!!
