We All Have Our Stories - We Are All Survivors in Our Own Ways
by flipper inin attending the apostafest this weekend in south lake tahoe it became apparent to me that we all held a common bond in getting out of the jehovah's witnesses cult ; and yet many of us made our escape to freedom in different ways !
some people stopped going to meetings cold turkey, like myself, something just clicks in you after the buildup over years of tension and abuse of justice - just couldn't take it anymore !
other people do a slow gradual fade , some get dfed, or dissassociate, some even get their families out with them, some are the only members of their family who have exited the cult.

Lap Band Surgery
by uninformed inabout 10 years ago i was diagnosed as diabetic.. i was about 70 lbs overweight and tried to lose weight, but could not really control my eating, and i neglected exercise too.
over the 10 years, i did manage to lose about 15 lbs.. on may 12, this year, after researching bariatric surgery, i decided to have a 'lap band' installed.
i went to a hospital in juarez, mexico, and i have enjoyed some good results so far.. i have lost over 20 lbs in the past two months, and my blood sugar has dropped over 50 points.

JW's and weddings
by nana1957 ini am sure this has been discussed before, would appreciate anything on this.
i was always under the assumption that a jw was not allowed to be an attendant in a 'worldly' wedding.
meaning that you would not be able to be a bridesmaid or groomsman if you were baptized.

except this, our time is becoming more and more limited.
we are home less and less.

How Can We Expose Child Abusers - Who Got Away with it as Witnesses ?
by flipper ini got the idea for this thread by talking with a friend this weekend who had been abused by a father when young.
this person confronted this parent about it and got a very self righteous reply back from the offender.
already a precedent for exposing the watchtower society has been set.

How are they controlling the use of technology during meetings/conventions?
by candela inthere was no texting or cellphones readily available for all teenagers and kids when i last attended a meeting or convention.
you use to have to talk or draw or write notes to keep yourself entertained during the long hours of boredom, which wasn't easy to do discretely.
i would've love to have texting phones in that time!
