Who would tell 9/11 survivors to just get over it?
by Swan inmaybe the same people who post on this board and tell us to just get over it.
i get so tired of them dismissing our experiences and trauma by saying "why do you have to tear jehovah's organization down?
just get over it and move on!".

Are there any people on this site who are gay and grew up in the truth?
by PaulMarshall ini have decided to join this site and hopefully connect with some people who will know what my story has been.
i guess it is best to read my profile, but the upshot of this new found technology is that i am no longer alone in my isolation.
i can hopefully reach out and connect with people who really understand what it is like in my head!

So why now after 18 years have I taken the step of joining you here?
by PaulMarshall insince finding this forum.
i have so far lost two days work... i am soooooooooo behind.
the shear volume of responses i have had from my initial posting as well as the emails, some of which made me shed tears, coupled with some incredibly stimulating conversation online i have had with dubs (i love my new found word) have left me with a back log of things to do.

People Like us
by PaulMarshall ini have been amazed at how many people have had similar experiences to myself.
we are such creatures of conformity by very definition, so it is hard for anyone either going through what we have or for my friends out there who have been through the process of leaving all they know, in formative years to see or get any kind of closure.
its good to hear of others that have / are finding a way forward with all the complications that tend to go with being raised in the organisation and then leaving it.
