Why JWs and ex JWs Return to Watchtower 2
by Victor_E inpeople, who have an addiction to religion like jws will experience severe withdrawal upon existing or being disfellowshipped, much like a drug addict or an alcoholic.
if you are an addict you must educate yourself in understanding your illness and seek out professional assistance.
what follows is a checklist of symptoms that lead to relapse, thus returning to the coercive environment of jws.

People Come Here for a Reason or a Season
by Victor_E inpeople come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime.. when you figure out which it is, you know exactly what to do.. when someone is in your life for a reason, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed outwardly or inwardly.. they have come to assist you through a difficulty,.
to provide you with guidance and support,.
to aid you physically, emotionally, or spiritually.. they may seem, like a godsend and they are.. they are there for the reason you need them to be.. then without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person may say or do something to bring the relationship to an end.

12 STEP RECOVERY OF XJWS
by Victor_E inthe twelve steps of ex jws .
step 1. we admitted we were powerless over posting and reading on xjw forums.. step 2: we came to believe that reading and posting would heal our wounds and restore us to sanity.. step 3: we made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to some higher power and or more worthy purpose.. step 4: we made a searching and fearless moral inventory of jws and other xjws.. step 5: we admitted to ourselves (sometimes) and to other posters the exact nature of our wrongs and rights according to us.. step 6: we were entirely unconsciously ready to expose our selves of these defects of character by our writing.. step 7: wiser persons who had walked ahead of us down this painful path towards healing and recovery humbled us at times.
step 8: we made a list of all the persons that harmed us and we were liberally willing to harm them.

God's Psychiatry
by Victor_E inknowledge is good, but the worship of knowledge destroys obedience, just like the worship of power destroys character.. .
it is the sabath that should be mans goal and not labor.
gods final rule for life is thou shalt not covet that does not mean that all desire is wrong.

Therapy for Ex JWs
by Victor_E inthis post is in response to another post to answer a question from stealth.
please excuse any typos, this pc does not have a word processor with spell check.. therapies are as varied and as common as religions.
in my own experience i have a bias for cognitive therapy, nlp, and eriksonian hypnosis.

Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
by Victor_E inone of the most destructive and evil aspects of the jw religion is the mind programming and hypnosis that is used to fill a persons mind with post hypnotic suggestions that operate as beliefs much like an operating system on a pc.
these beliefs for the most part are outside of a persons conscious awareness and they can dredge up feelings of fear and paranoia, this is a programmed form of posttraumatic syndrome.
i once worked with a jw client who was a vet loading corpses on choppers.
