Anybody out there left the Organization just because of the hate of crowds and large gatherings?
I find it very stressful in meetings and assembly situations just because of the amount of people. So, that alone makes me want to leave as soon as possible.
Any similar thoughts or experiences?

Doubt, I can feel that way at times. I know a few people who are totally spazzed out by crowds. I used to get that way after the sessions when we'd go to the restaurants and all had to wait forever to eat. And the JW conversations all around me would sound like "Ah ha ha yak yak blah blah ah ha ha yak yak." Kind of like the mind of a crazy person would probably sound when they are losing touch with reality." It's time for you to get out, honey.

Hiya, I'll ditto your situation without a shadow of doubt. It's still painful for me to talk about it, though I will do the best that I can to offer you my personal insights into these feelings. Please pm me, and I will get back to you as soon as I possibly can, I promise.
Best wishes!!
Mark
