    I made sure I had a remote rural territory, said I had my own arrangements so I could be alone.Then I' stop by the house and smoke a doobie before heading on out with my picnic lunch and go sight seeing.

    I'm only six months into my fade and it's driving me crazy! I've never been much of a liar. I feel like the truth is going to spill out any day now. My family badgers me constantly. Their entire LIVES center around being JWs. I'm trying to build more relationships so that when I do DA I'm not left completely alone. It amazes me how much help and comfort the "big bad worldly people" have been.

    My occupation has helped me. Work always gives me an excuse. Tonight was our C/O visit, but as my job sent me 3 hours away, I was able to avoid it!

    All of the advice you listed sounds awesome and well thought out. Thanks for sharing!
