"many times the article it speaks about members having to sell books"
That is the part that I thought was a bit exaggerated. And you are very correct that it would turn the JW's off.
Happy Anniversary! I've followed your story and get comfort that others are 'fleeing' the WTBS.
Enjoy your day!
i was raised a jw and my dad was an elder.
my parents divorced after my dad decided to leave the "truth.
" i was baptised when i was 16, after being severely pressured by my mom to do so.
"I don't know if it affected any of you like this, but I would and sometimes still do have nightmares about Jehovah destroying me and my family, different scenerios, but all very frightining. Thankfully the nightmares are starting to subside and I don't freak out everytime there is a bad storm, I am just waiting for my unfounded fear to end, then I will feel that I am totally free from that hell!"
I can completely relate to this. I used to have nightmares frequently. Once I discovered the truth about the WT, the nightmares stopped.
Welcome.
we've agreed to compromise on our differences and support each other through the years we have left.. i'm seeing a psychiatrist today to deal with my difficulties that stem from a traumatic and tumultuous childhood.. he is willing to yield in his beliefs that a man should control everything and make all the decisions.. being a stubborn jamaican, i realize how hard that is for him.. we're going to renovate the house so that he has his own quarters.. that way, my boisterous g'kids won't work his nerves too badly.. just wanted to put it out there.. syl.
I think this is wonderful! I wish the two of you the best.
was shopping at our local grocer this morning while i was there.
i pushed my cart past her, full of food for father's day celebration we are having on monday for convenience.
in my cart were two full "american flag kits" as the patriotic nature of the independence day moved me to buy them and add to my 9 or 10 flags around my house and garden.. she looked at me and said 'are you a k----?
I think you handled that very well.

LOVE this song!! Takes me back to a fun time in my life!
i was df'd when i was 20 or so for fornication.
i got reinstated when i was 24. i had a son during that time and i was worried about us if we didn't get back to the fold and 'protection' of the organization.

i love home remedies.
being able to use things from around the house to fix stuff, or treat illness is great.
a couple that i have used:.
To get food that is stuck in your microwave-boil a cup of water for about 5 minutes. Then all you have to do is wipe it out-the food comes right off.
Be careful though, cause the cup and water will be extremely hot.
i signed up on this website 3 years ago.
it's unbelievable how much my life has changed since then.

Thank you everyone.
@Quandry-I am still able to associate with my family that are 'in'. My mom has become an uber JW but doesn't get preachy with me. She knows that I am not returning-not from me but from my cousin who told her-and she doesn't bring it up to me. We get along quite well.
I really want to tell her the whole truth about the JW's and why I won't return but don't want her to have to choose between me and them. I hate that she is so zealous about the WTBS.
