Welcome Bulchoz. Sounds like you are doing really well. be patient with yourself though. It's a bumpy road and will get discouraging at times. When it does, leave us a post. We will remind you that it's all worth it.

Welcome to the real world. Enjoy.
One piece of advice if I may. If you can, take some time for yourself, a week or two, and read. Just read anything you want.
It's posts like yours that fill me with joy.

Oh Bucholz! Your post was lovely. I'm glad you're awake. As the fog starts to clear you'll feel more and more refreshed. Welcome to reality.
I agree that you should take the time to read. Read anything and everything. Keep asking questions beyond what you've been trained to ask.
And most importantly, after years of living your life according to what Jehovah wants, thinks, and likes, figure out what YOU want, what YOU think, and what YOU like. It's highly rewarding finding yourself buried under years of group think.
Again, congratulations ^_^

These last months I've been enjoying life, getting to know new people, looking at them in the eye and knowing that they won't be destroyed along with 99% of humanity simply because they are not JWs.
That is lovely to hear. Welcome to your new life.

Welcome.
Isn't it nice to actually get to know other people without automatically assuming that they are going to die at Armageddon, and you must immediately preach to them?
