WTS causing more anguish
by GapingMouth ini don't really know where to start on my first post; i feel i have so much to say and yet i am so emotionally tired that it is hard to go through it all again in my head.
but, i do need support and advice and so i will make the effort.. i started having doubts about certain beliefs of the witnesses about 2 years ago and did research since that i now come to the belief there is no god, and witnesses definitely are a cult.. at first it bothered me more on the god issue, but now i am more bothered by the cult issue, mainly because it dictates my life even though i am aware of it.. when i was a child, my mother and father divorced and my mother told me i will live with my father because she was going to die at armageddon being a non witness.
i think, as well as many other pressures i cant list for fear of a very long post, this was the main pressure that made me get baptized even though i wasn't that happy being a witness.

The Void!
by BloominMarvellous inhi guys.
i need a little more advise, i have spoken to a couple of friends about this void i'm currently experiencing after leaving ( being ignored so decided to leave) the jws.. i feel alone, i'm now longer allowed on the ministry and im not having to study for meetings, so i have this massive great hole in my life.. it's the mental agony as well, kind of knowing that friends that you thought would always be there, arent any more.
and after two years of indoctrination, i feel that im displeasing jehovah or abandoning god.. my head was screwed anyway from ten years of depression and this thing with the jws has really taken its toll.. if you had any coping mechanisms i would love to know.. thank you in advance for your support x .

Did You Feel The Love As A Jehovah's Witness?
by minimus inother than feeling "love bombed" when you first started associating with the "brotherhood", did you experience the "love" in your years within the organization?.
if you felt truly loved, was it in reality, a "conditional love"?.

Has anyone got anything positive from the WT organisation?
by BloominMarvellous ineveryone seems to just hate the wt.. i am very upset with the way ive been treated but i dont hate them.. they have given me huge self confidence after helping me out of depression, although i have a fab counsellor, so they cant get all the credit.
they have made me independent as well, (i think my ex-study conductor regrets that!
) i suddenly have a mind of my own and am not afraid to use it.. i owe them quite a lot they have really helped me through some bad times but they have created some bad times for me too.

by rbrkn1016 inthis is my first time posting and even visiting the site - there have been some great reads so far, some real life changing stories.
i could not help but notice that there seems to be a larger number of heartfelt stories about growing up gay amongst males.
what about lesbians, in my overall internet search i have only found a handful of stories.
