JWD a Dysfunctional Place?
by Victor_E inwith the recent blood baths we have seen in this forum it got me wondering of how you can objectively understand it and more importantly not let it affect you if you so choose.
what i write is not meant to be taken as gospel truth since there is no gospel truth nor is it my intention to get on my soap box since i left it when i walked out of the kingdom hall.
most of what i have to say is subjective based on personal experience and i feel no need or desire to debate anyone about anything i write.

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.
