Thanks for letting us know you're okay. Good luck with college. Are their resources available to get professional counselling? Take advantage of all options for financial aid and don't be afraid to tell your story.

Hi everybody! I still exist, and I'm still in college! Parental relationship is pretty much nil, and basically all of my relatives and old friends blocked me on social media despite me never having reached out to them.
my Brother now has two kids, neither of which I've met, and another brother married one of my old friends. I wasn't told about or invited to the wedding.
My mother had gastric bypass, yet again, no one told me anything, and overall they pretend that I don't exist.
I hope everyone is well! I'm approaching my three year anniversary of leaving the witnesses!

Your story Magotan tells of how benevolently cruel this religion is in how it does beak apart families.
A good heads up warning for the general public to see .
Sorry for your troubles .

Glad to hear your well Magotan. I just read your story and while I'm happy for you that you got out, it's too bad about you family.
I often wonder if there is going to be a mass realization that this cult is so full of shit and how these people will feel when they recall how they treated their fellow family and friends. Shame that they would put an organization ahead of blood. 😡

I'm glad you are doing good. Sorry that you have lost all your family and friends. But, you probably have gained some friends in college too. Wishing you all the best

It's a general fallacy that family can be trusted and relied upon. Family are capable of burning you down just as fast and easily as a malicious stranger and so are "friends". I may sound callous and pessimistic, but the sad truth is the only person in life you should rely on is yourself. At least if you mess up you only have to account for your actions in front of a mirror.
Good to see you're optimistic and doing well on your own two feet and leading the life you chose by true free will. Keep going and keep positive, you owe it to yourself and no one else.
