Eddie........THANK YOU.......your short but sweet post actually brought tears to my eyes. It is REALLY nice to know that perfect strangers can be so kind and loving in this world. So comforting to know that.

You said:
It took me and my wife years to fully escape from Watchtower indoctrination and also to recover some kind of normality.  For a long time we felt like aliens...strangers in the world.  Its was so hard to relate to ordinary people.  When they said something we disagreed with or found unpalatable we would say something, or back off.

As for the anger at the Watchtower...boy did i go through some stages of anger and i could write a book about where it led me.  I was insensed at the lies and falseness of the Watchtower, at how they deceived and lied to people.  This was not so much aimed at the ordinary witness who is in my opinion ,in most cases, a victim.   No my anger was at the Watchtower, at the system that had grown into a monster and was controlling and abusing people.   It took a long time for that anger to subside.  In all that time i tried to see the witnesses as people, as mainly honest zealous people who had been manipulated and led astray.
  Your description of your anger being directed towards the watchtower and not the individuals perfectly sums up my view on it as well. You brought out that it took you and your wife "years" to fully leave the indoctrination of the watchtower. Frankly, that scares me a little. I REALLY do not want this process to drag on and on and on and on. In a perfect world, I'd love for this whole "transition" to be over and done with within a year so I can get back to being normal and happy again. At least, that is my goal. I am not normally such a negative person and I absolutely HATE myself for being so angry all the time. I dont walk around moping all day long or in a bad mood or anything, but it's this underlying anger towards the society that I'm carrying around like a monkey on my back. It just won't go away. I despise injustice. Out of all human qualities, injustice in one thing that really gets my blood boiling. So when I think of all those poor mislead fools in the organization, it just makes me .....well.....angry for lack of a better word.
