    Im new to the site, as my username implies I am an abuse survivor, it was more then sexual, it was a very horrific type of abuse and no surprise the JW's that were involved were and still are being protected. I have found posts here to be encouraging and glad to see I am not alone in my struggle and my fight.

    I have a constant struggle/battle with emotional and mental health issues from the many many years of abuse but I am a fighter and try to keep on going, but am so glad to have found this site, it seems to be a source of encouragement :)

    welcome survivor. i have a few background Qs for you: have you seen a therapist yet? have you attempted to report your abusers to police if you're still within the statute of limitations? are you a JW? never baptized? DF'ed? inactive? you'll meet some fantastic people here on this forum and hopefully get some strong support and sound advice.

    jwabusesurevivor - you have a PM.

    For the board, where are you as far as JW's?

    Do you feel it is the truth, but corrupted?
