So.... i'm thinking. I'm thinking cuz i was at my shrink's today... and i'm cleaning... those 2 things get my brain working and i was thinking....
I am (was) a JW (ex) who is a housewife, "at home mom". Could there POSSIBLY be ANYONE ELSE in the whole FRIGGIN WORLD who has ever used their brain LESS??? honestly... even that tribe they found in the amazon... they could hunt and catch their food. See, i dont even know where that is cuz i've NEVER HAD TO THINK!!!
Oh my gosh! What a realization!! I couldn't go to college, cuz we were "good"... and then your every thought and opinion was predetermined. Then also in my own life... I havn't written a check except for a few school pictures in 10 years. I wouldn't know how to pay a bill in this day and age, or how many there are or what they could be for. In fact, i dont even know what else there is to being alive than chasing around children who wont listen to me, and cleaning the house.AND THATS NOT CUTE! and it DOESN"T mean "oh she's got it good"(i'm not denying that it's nice to not have worries, but worries is not the issue). it means that I've never had to think .... Where do you even start?
This CANNOT be what life is about. But, i have NOT allowed my brain to function, practically, religiously, philosophcally, politically (?) but see, i dont even know what is out there TO ponder!!
Anyway... it's amazing what you can come up with while scrubbing toilets.... this CANT be my destiny.

I personally was very impressed. I've been thinking about a letter.... SUCH a hard choice, SO many ramifications.....AAAHHHHH.
Glad to hear you're making a good strong choice for yourself. I do believe it sounds kind and respectful.
Good luck. I wish you the best, cross your fingers , and all those pagan activities that will help get you thru it....

Russel's view of Disfellowshipping
by not_yours ini read this watchtower the other day, november 15, 1984:.
for instance, in 1904 the watch tower societys first president, charles taze russell, wrote: the church is to withdraw from him its fellowship and any and all signs or manifestations of brotherhood.
(the new creation, page 290) .

(((((((((((((((Cognac))))))))))))))))))
I'm so sorry you're having a hard time. The CULT made us do things. We didn't make those decisions on our own at all. In fact, they were unnatural. Get it all out, let them know how you feel (which you seem to have done) and then you can have a great rest of their lives with them. Dont waste anymore time.
IF you need to talk, I'm here.....

Sorry OOMP!!
Didn't want it to hurt, and i'm NOT worn out or tired...
Can one get tired of the OOMPSTER????
But, i had a feeling you wanted honest feedback.. and in that case, i was gonna let you see what we all seem to see.
We love ya, we're here for you. I'm SO happy to hear about the councelor, and the fact that she would go was great. SO maybe this will be a good turn-around. I'm proud that you're trying everything first. good boy!

Solace...
Welcome.
Learn more. I thought my life was great "in the truth". until you realize it's all a lie, you wasted your life, and all your friends only love you conditionally. Sorry to ramble on this thread, but anyway.... I couldn't stop myself.

I've often talked about that.
Get a freakin sunday school for the kids so they're not tortured, have SOME THINGS at the hall, social! (gasp!!) Honestly, i really think i would have stuck around. I could see it then.
Even though it's a stupid cult.
