I joined the jehovah's witnesses when I was in 4th grade. I did it of my own accord, my parents were not involved in it and i attended with my aunt veru regularly. I followed this course through to my junior year of high school.... after i had missed a large chunk of my childhood and been so socailly crippled, that I had only few semi friends in school and some aquaintences from work. To This day i still feel so damaged by the cult I just dont know what to do with myself. It all seams like a bad dream especailly the parts of my life that led to my removal as a publisher.... They did everything they could do to me since i wasn't baptized...
