I myself would get really nervous for I week or so before I had to do my talk. I was very quiet at the time and shook like hell on that platform. I remember very well an elder saying after my talk saying sister was very nervous image well I was indeed.

My story
I have been married to a JW for 10 years. I am not a JW. I studied but they would not let me get baptized b/c they said I was just doing it b/c I wanted to marry a JW, which was right. I am glad I never got baptized. Needless to say, my husband's family and friends did not attend our wedding. He was a servant and was stripped of all privleges in the KH. He faithfully attended all of the meetings for 8 years... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (catlover489) http://exjehovahswitnessforum.yuku.com/topic/8889 Mon, 25 Aug 2008 09:12:11 GMT <![CDATA[ traits ]]> http://exjehovahswitnessforum.yuku.com/topic/8883/t/traits.html
Do you think that ex-jw's have certain traits that they generally carry with them for at least a while after they leave the org?

1 Milieu Control

"Milieu" is a French word meaning "surroundings; environment." Cults are able to control the environment around their recruits in a number of ways, but almost always using a form of isolation.

For most, or dare I say all of us, it was, and for some of us still is, a traumatic experience. Many of us lost our family and friends, all our loved ones. We found ourselves alone and lost in the big bad world, with guilt feelings on top of it. Yet we made it through this traumatic experience, or, are still trying to.

My stepdad molested me for many years. He was a MS. I finally ran away from home.....to my "real" dad" in Texas. The elders where I grew up knew what was happening, as did my mom.

Many years ago, I tried pressing charges, but in this state, the statue of limitations had run out.
