Here you will read about my experience growing up being raised as one of Jehovah's Witnesses. I will also talk about what it has been like since leaving that religion, and the many reasons WHY I chose to disown JW's.
It has taken a few years to get to the point where I can write and talk about my feelings about this openly, without feeling guilty, or afraid that other JW 'friends' would find out. I still feel angry when I think about them, even though I try not to be angry and bitter. I want to be positive and not dwell on the past. But I'm also finding that I really need to talk about this, or I will not be able to recover.
This is not going to be a story of sexual or physical abuse by my parents (because there wasn't any), or members in the JW congregation, if that's what you're looking for. At least, not relating to me personally. But I will say that I feel that I have been emotionally abused, along with my son, by JW's teachings, and members.

What the JW's don't tell you about...that I will
