  Did feel that you were at a mental breaking point at the point of leaving?

  by jambon1 in

  prior to you leaving the org did you come to the conclusion that if you didnt actually take the step and leave, that you would run into serious mental difficulty.. i really feel that for 5 years proir to my finally leaving i was quite impaired mentally by the teachings and practices of the org.

  it was coming to a head though when i finally announced that i was leaving.

  i really felt that i was under intense mental pressure and that if i didnt get out then i may end up doing something serious.

  greetings, people who know nothing about jws.

  i have a question.

  are you blogging this site because you are bored or want to feel special, because it certainly cannot be for anything positive you might have to share with others.. i have been associated with jws for 30+ years.

  Remember the assembly hall at Grantville, Pennsylvania?

  by WingCommander in

  2. experiences

  when i was a child in the early 80's, i remember about twice a year being packed up into the family jdub-mobile and taking about an hour trip up to the grantville, pa assembly hall.

  i think it was built in the late 60's, or early 70's.

  back in the 80's, circuit assemblies lasted like 4 days.

  What planted the seed of doubt that lead you to leave or think of leaving?

  by NanaR in

  2. experiences

  i've been thinking of this a lot lately.

  the following experience ties my first doubt in with my present life.

  as a backdrop to this, you should know that i was a 5th generation "raised in the truth" jw through my mother (her great-grandfather got "the truth" from pastor russell).
