-
"Thank you for accepting me into your group. I am 58 years old, and live in Roseburg, Oregon. I was born into a JW family, and served as a pioneer, Ministerial Servant, and Elder for years. I was disfellowshipped in 1989. Today I am a Baptist."
-
"Hello. Tyleena, my best friend and also a xjw just joined so I though I too could use some support. I don't feel like rehashing why I am not there anymore. I just want to move on with my life and make good decisions I can for myself and my children. "
-
"Hey, nice to know there are others like me looking to grow and return to the authenticity that our inner truths have been craving. I seek detachment from the conditioning I have recieved for over 25 years. I want to heal and become who I want."
-
"Hello, I joined because I need support from other people. I have been maried 10 years. My husband decided to join 2 years ago much to my dismay. I am having a very hard time dealing with this situation. What do I do? Help please!"
-
"Born and raised fourth generation JW. Didn't leave until my mid-thirties. I was a true believer, that made it very hard to leave. I enjoy talking with other ex-JWs."
-
"Hey Megan - Welcome to the post-JoHo world! Jg"
-
"Raised a j-dub - knew I'd gotten myself up crap creek within a month of baptism. Over a decade later, got a private reproof as opposed to the expected disfellowshipping, but moving on. Still learning how to extricate myself fully from the borg."
-
"Welcome Megan....hope to meet you soon :)"
-
"WELCOME JOEL!!!! Sorry I missed you on Wednesday night :("
-
"I was raised as a JW but left with my brother when I was 16. I have been out for four years now, but am still dealing with adjustment issues, and am interested in talking with others who've had similar experiences. "
-
"Raised J-Dub: did Bethel, pioneered, got married, obtained a divorce. Answered from the paragraph in my own words, whatever THAT means. What they call disfellowshipping , I call Graduation Day. It's okay that I was JW, but I'm glad it's over."
-
"My parents became JW's in 1981 and my life has been full of conflict since then. I had been fooling myself and all around me, making all kinds of effort to be the best JW I could. I was just DF'd on Thursday night and I am now free. Free to live."
-
"I'm Jon. Haven't been to a meet up yet but would like to check it out. jon1drew@yahoo.com"
