I thought I'd re-introduce this gem for the newbies..........It has the 2 letters I was sent from the B.O.E that jusdged over me.
Thanks for bumping your experience punky. Good strategy to completely ignore them, but I did the opposite I went out with a big bang. Told them their reinstatement process was unscriptural and said I was not putting another letter in. I recorded my last JC meeting so my loved ones could hear how prejudice they were.
When we leave on our own terms and have an exit plan it feels better to be in control I think. Now I am trying to make a life after leaving, divorcing, and loosing my son in a bitter custody battle. It's all new and uphill for me now. I hope I am over it all in two years like you seem to be punky

Well, it may seem that way but it's still an uphill struggle for different reasons now. Since my wife left I've been struggling badly financially. I have a wonderful GF in a different city that looks after me now but I'd never want to burden her with my woes.
Sadly, I can feel some of the JW hardwiring echoing in my head at times.
I have family still in the truth(TM) that want me to go back despite me giving them reasons that it's a cult. UGH!
Punk,
Thanks for your honesty. You have a great amount of integrity, although it's still a struggle you don't want to live a lie in the cult. I can relate to that, I hate the struggle that I am going through now, but I would hate myself so much if I went back and conformed to the mindless lifestyle just for a few companions.
Some of them may seem sincere, but I can't live a lie, it's just not me.
I hope your money worries will be over soon, I can resonate with that, my budget is pretty bleak too, affordable housing is a joke in the UK, even here in Liverpool the capital of low rent and mortgages. What you can get for your money is very poor housing conditions. But I would have starting over any time than joining a cult. The struggle is worth it.

My Mum is convinced all my troubles are a result of leaving the 'organization(R)' where I would have had help from 'true friends(TM)'.
There isn't enough vomit in the world to express how I feel about that comment.
