I just feel isolated and tired of the situation I am in. No witness visits, and this just makes me even more spiritually lethargic.
I just feel alone

Joe where do you live?
Have you tried to make contact with anyone here who is in your area?
Leaving the cult really does leave a gap in terms of friends and of course family, but there is a whole world of great people outside the organisation. A world of genuine people, who care about their friends unconditionally. It takes effort to find these people, but it is well worth the effort....

Joe - what you need buddy. Your never alone when you got your pc and the WWWeb.
Tiredness is a pain, kills motivation.
What you passionate about. what's the one thing that really floats your boat and gives you joy.
music, playing pool, reading books, what kind of books
movie, what kind of movies
animals, nature, smoking weed, the sea, the beach
mountain walks
ummmmmmmmmmmmmm ... what else is there.... let me think
Kids, you got any kids
pets, dog, cat, mouse
travel, favourite country abroad.
killer whales, penguins, the antartic, ice caps
neanderthals, cave paintings .... camping,
B-B-Q food
gardening, flowers, veggies.
religion/culture world history
the world today
God, Satan, believing/not believing
loving hating, emotions, bitterness, joy laughter.
cration. evolution
anger, rage
there must be at least one of the above mentioned you can chat about, if not, pick a topic
what floats your boat.
you know, sometimes even just sitting at pc and typing, is great, once you get the first few words down and start typing, the brain gets going and bang, befor you know it, hours have passed by.
do you find that when your on pc, time just dissapears.
so, what ya wanna talk about then

I don't feel any need to hook up with local ex-JWs. My life is with NeverDubs and I like it that way.

Dont u hate that most jw friendships are so conditional... Witnesses frm my Congo stopped visiting me a while ago. At one stage when things were really difficult with my circumstances I asked for help... I got nothing... Hang in there...

Yep, out of sight, out of mind with the JW's.
Kept too busy by the Tower to care.
Speak to us Joe.............

Band on the Run
My transition to normal society was painful. Nevertheless, the benefits were so wonderful that the pain faded into oblivion.
It is hard to see it when you are so alone. Keep plugging alone and try to make like minded friends. This forum is amazing in terms of support and exposure to people who have walked the same walk.

Hey Joe - shout - what's up guy? What's going on. Surely not visits from witnesses is a good thing.

Replace that lonliness with a desire to learn real history and archeology. Look for friends at book discussion forms at local coffee shops or try to connect with ones on jw.net
