Good job everyone! I have been in therapy for well over a year, not strictly JW issues, but it (later combined with some anti-depressants) has been wonderfully helpful. It's hard work, but well worth it, I am in a much better place now than I was when I began. My therapist doesn't specialize in cults or JWs, but she is very down to earth and excellent at finding real life solutions for my problems.

Just my perspective, it's more important to find a competent therapist you can open up to than one who knows all about JWs. Sadly there are many other "religeons" out there that use the same emotionally abusive tactics, and our situations aren't likely to really shock anyone in the mental health field.

Good luck to all of you and please update us on how it's going!
