Dear Sid , I have recently woken up. And got out of this dangerous evil cult. I can now see how I was brainwashed for 24 years ! Thank you for your story, I am not alone 😊😊😊
@@starboy1887 Good for you! Welcome to your awesome new life.🌻
..but do acknowledge God and the Gospals ,in the New Testament
Good for you! JWs are now changing because people are leaving in droves.
Yes! Glad you escaped. Please don't turn your back on Jesus tho like so many of us do. Unlike what the Jhos had us believing, God and Jesus love us. You. He won't abandon us. He knows us. Stay with Him and we'll be alright.
@@barefootbilly9705No sense jumping from one cult to another.
Thank you for sharing🙏 I have a similar experience. Raised in the cult, finally woke up in 2021 after 40 years of struggling with deep depression and low self worth, never feeling like i fit in, but believing it was the truth. One day I saw a video on RUclips about narcissistic mothers and I instantly gained clarity on what was wrong with me... nothing, it was my JW mother making me feel worthless. A huge weight was lifted off my shoulders, afterwards I clearly saw the narcissistic traits in the governing body and knew I had been bamboozled my entire life. Healed now but it took a couple years
@@jemz4555 Big hugs. I know how much that hurts. Good for you for questioning researching and liberating yourself. ❤️❤️
@@SidLamar Thank you 💛 It's been quite a journey but fortunately I've healed so much in ways I honestly didn't think was possible, but now I realize we all have the power within us to do so. I also wanna start helping other JWs still stuck, I have much empathy because I know exactly how it feels. So many are depressed and they think they're flawed when it's really the sickening environment they're in😔 Anyway, thanks again for your efforts to help and thanks for being so genuine and down to earth🤗🙏
I woke up from WT while i was in college..i found out about their UN association and that floored me. But initially my doubts began because of the lack of real love at the Hall. There were cliques and many were left out..i faded gradually and eventually i moved out of the area and the new found freedom was amazing. God bless and thanks for your story.
The UN story is fake news. Y'all bein played. Wt is not and cannot be a UN member period
I was born into the cult in the 70s, but couldn't stand it anymore when I was around 13. Everything was forbidden. Couldnt do anything. Couldn't stand it. I hated it. But I won't forget when an elders wife asked me with sarcasm: 'do you feel better now when you're not attending meetings?' Yes, best thing I've ever done! I answered. That shut her up. My parents were very upset then but a couple of years later they left too. They finally got the point. Thank you jehova for that! 😉😁
@ollonskall3 Wow! You got your parents out?! That's a major accomplishment. Awesome!😁
My last covention destroyed my world!!!NEVER WENT BACK EVER. Hope one day I will be able to share my cold hearted story part of this organization
@IllsaMinnaar-sv8bh Dang! So sorry love. I hope you will share your story too. It's very healthy and healing to let it all out. ❤️🌻
I am so glad that you left the cult of Jehovah's Witnesses. Watchtower has hurt many people. I wish you great success and happiness. Please please be careful and watch for signs of cult type behaviors in other institutions. Congrats to you.
@@tammyg8031 Thank you. ❤️
Having children is the biggest wake up call for me and many others. Glad you're out :)
I love Jesus Christ so very much
I feel your sentiments. My ex-jw journey has just begun. I’ve been watching many videos that support people like us. And also listening to a lot of therapists geared to help in my personal struggles. Thank you for your kind words.
That's great. Watching videos like that can be very healing and validating. Tysm❤
Also you saw a bluebird ... a messenger.

@@Sk9-blu So beautiful. Tysm🌻❤️
Did you know that there is a new group that helps those who are freshly out of the org. They not only help financially, but also with accommodations & finding work. But, especially with helping mentally. They are on RUclips under DIFFICULT Childhood." ❤😊
@@dianelowe972 That's awesome!
Many of us have been through the same journey and when you realise your parents are narcissistic its a relief, it explains whats been happening, i wish you the best in your journey. Jerry Wise on RUclips is good after you realise the dynamics but before Dr Ramani was where I learnt most about all the different varieties if narcissists.
The Watchtower and Jehovah's witnesses are narcissistic organisation. I wish you well in your recovery.
@@yvonne3903 Thank you. I'm a huge fan of Jerry Wise. He's great. Dr. Les Carter is another great. 👍
@@SidLamareverybody relates to different therapists , I just remembered Theramin Trees, he has a different approach and his history is similar to ours very worth a watch. Trust your gut and put your narc sensor to the on position x
Sid,
Thank you for sharing your experience!
It helps me heal from the trauma the watchtower caused me.
@@judyarellano6196 Hi Judy. I'm glad I helped. Hang in there. Sending you love and healing energy.❤️🌻
Too bad a class action lawsuit couldn't be filed against THE WTS for destroying lives. I survived(?) its tentacles affecting every aspect of my life for 60 years. Had enough of the emotional turmoil and opted for Jesus and baptism instead. A world of difference!
Everything you said is right on. Especially with the Glorified Elders . I left for similar reasons after 25 years in.14 a MS. Take 💜 there is life after WT. Nice job!
I was a jw in the 70s 🤣 when 1978 prohecy of the end was predicted and didn’t happened i left 🤣 I’m still very much of follower of Jehovah and Jesus Christ. There real, one thing I learned from the Bible is don’t follow men. Men lie.
Don't follow Jehovah either, he's the devil.
What hurts me the most is the reproach that this RELIGION not cult is bringing on the name of GOD
Dont worry, jhvh is definitely NOT the Father of Yeshua.🕊️
@Des7iny7 I agree with you 1000%
Jhvh is the devil Jesus alluded to when he rebuked the Hebrews/Israelites for worshipping their father the devil. John 8:44
WELCOME TO YOUR FREEDOM!!
I love you for your generous heart, your authentic expressions and your beautiful soul. You are finding your path ❤️🙌❤️😘❤️
@@Makeshiftmustang thank you❤️
@@vusimngomezulu2500 What are you talking about? All churches are preaching the gospel of Gods Kingdom around the world using adult evangelists and missionaries, only the Watchtower send their children among wolves in sheep's clothing and in harms way to preach the Watchtower's ever changing doctrines!
Not even Jesus sent children out to preach the gospel, only the Watchtower does that! All the other Churches use adult disciples of Jesus to become preachers of the faith.
Dear Sid, just ignore this vusigomezzulu person, they haunt all the podcasts, “troll” I think is the word with the same question over and over ad nauseum. He bothers everyone and no matter how you answer, he has only this automatic response. Just ignore the trolling. God bless.
@@christinesotelo7655ty❤
@vusimngomezulu2500 um yeah ok😂
Sorry you were not appreciated within your congregation. Am glad you woke up. It was The Australian Royal Commission that made me hand in a letter of resignation immediately. It felt like heavy chains were falling off me the moment I walked away from the congregation secretary. Decades of depression left me. Everyone should walk away from something or someone that makes them feel less than. Jesus is our Leader, which is what he told the Samaritan woman at the well. Stay well and strong 💖
@@donnyetta Good for you. Thank you.🌻❤️
The Australian royal commission is a kangaroo court remix by haters of Jehovah. Furthermore the findings were not condemning Jehovah's witnesses
@donnyetta - did they try to talk you out of leaving?
@@Ava2969ny No because I told them to make me a Do Not Call and never contact me again and cc'd the letter to Solicitors
The Australian royal commission is a kangaroo court. Their findings were not significant. The whole thing eventually was signed off by just one woman whwrote children's books for aboriginals, a big farm a shill...Awake! Y'all bein players
Grew up in this cult, suffered alot now I'm a true Christian ✝️
same fairytale, different cult.
Best to think clear;y about God Patty because you will need the truth.
If you honestly think your fake story is enough you will get exactly what you deserve, nothing.
Then what?
You die and are left un-prepared because you believed in a man made lie designed to control you.
Best to connect with God on your own, you're welcone.
So what’s your church now?
@lorenzodossantos1111 no its not its not controlling or manipulative or deceptive , no fear tactics no dress or social restrictions its totally differant , if anyone would know its me finding Christ is so liberating , learning true salvation is a shock to your system after cult recovery
@@ASMR_Orangely a Baptist church
@@pattynellis7347 are you sure that its not a cult?
Thank you Sid for your story and congratulations for your escape. I have 1 brother who decided to be brainwashed by the JWs. I've tried to show him the love of Yeshua, and even showing him documentation how the founder of JW Charles Taze Russell is/was a 33rd degree Mason and even buried under a pyramid tombstone and his wife wanted a divorce because Mr. Russell was a known pedophile, but he still didn't snap😢
I visited the Kingdom Hall a few times for myself with some friends and saw the abuse myself of the elders toward the young girls. It was sickening 🤮😡😤and broke my heart 💔 They are a Masonic Cult as you say and the USA government pays them, funds their church etc. Very eye 👁 opening. My prayers are for you ❤❤❤❤❤
@Sk9-blu Definitely they are a branch of freemasonry. The secret elders meetings and there are rituals too.
@@SidLamar Wow 😳😵💫😵really? I didn't know that firsthand, only by reading and doing research on JWs. You are awesome💕💟💕 I'm so glad you are free!
very much part of the Babylon system via 501.c3 status and their immersement in the commercial system $$$ investments in hedge funds, profits from shares in military stock/manufacturing, they are very much part of NWO with their shares in what went on to be developed as UAV (drones) developed while engaged with military contracts, while having secret membership to U.N with the drones first used in Afghanistan in 2003...when I looked into them about 10yrs ago I discovered 100+ sister companies mostly registered in Israel and believe that was where they established their business with drones and Israel just happen to be the world largest exporter of drones for military use. what was the purpose of their UN membership.....the borg has blood on their hands including that of the brothers/sisters from Malawi in the 70's and all the suicides that result from their BS.....secret pedo list with 20,000+ pedos listed which doesn't appear to be used to protect the flock...the following scriptures shows from Fathers perspective: guilt by association, maybe your brother has to be made aware of this,thats what motivated myself to leave after nearly 30yrs association....“Come out of her, My people,so that you will not share in her sins or contract any of her plagues. 5For her sins are piled up to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.6Give back to her as she has done to others;pay her back double for what she has done;mix her a double portion in her own cup.
7As much as she has glorified herself and lived in luxury,give her the same measure of torment and grief.
In her heart she says, ‘I sit as queen;I am not a widow and will never see grief.’
8Therefore her plagues will come in one day-death and grief and famine-and she will be consumed by fire, for mighty is the Lord God who judges her.” - Revelation 18:4-8.

I can tell you're a beautiful lady inside and out. I just found your Facebook page and started following.
I've been in incognito but working on an exit plan (including a new place to live). Good thing is the EXJW meetups I've been to where I've reunited with some familiar faces.
I'm not sure if you know Joe and Fran, but there's another RUclips channel called "Fixing my Faith". Every Wednesday about 7pm ET they have a live stream where nit just EXJW'S, but PIMO's and even current JW's will talk (of course turned off screen to conceal their ID). It's informative and fun and with people who care about the individual.
We've all experienced this narcissistic relationship with this cult.
Best to you.
@@SanDiegoPIMO Thank you🌻 I'll check out that channel. 👍
You’re Strong Now and God is Blessing You🙏👏👌
You are so beautiful and young, I wish you peace and love in your Journey! I was a JW in the 70’s and was ds’fd and shunned for disagreeing on a couple of doctrines. I hear you when you say at last, you have to let go of the toxic people, whether they be friends or family. I was hurt for years, due to them turning their backs on me. Then I realized, no, it is I who must now turn my backs on them and let go. The aftershocks and growth period after it all feel like your life is sometimes on automatic, and sometimes greatly accelerated. You’re learning and soaking up everything you touch, very rapidly. You have much to be proud of and you are such a good and sensitive soul. Thank you for being here for us. At my elderly age now, I am just beginning to write my book of WT life in the 70’s, all during the Armageddon of 1975 nonsense. It’s taken a lifetime to heal, let go, grow, and now return with those memories back to that place while I write, hopefully helping someone. And me too, it’s “Just Jesus” now. I couldn’t have Him in the 70’s. I hear now it’s different, but they still don’t know Him, in my opinion. Churches scare me. So...Just Jesus. May God bless you and thank you so much for your podcast and testimony. You are wonderful! ❤
@christinesotelo7655 Thank you so much. I'm glad you finally got away from all the toxic people. As long as you got Jesus you're good. He will always watch over those who truly love him. Blessings🌻❤️
Id like to read your book and surely would so many others!
My hope is that ALL would come out of all man made 'religions' and enter into a 'relationship' with Christ.
Why are you afraid of churches, sister?
I appreciate that many have been traumatized in the jw org and others,... but as Dr Frank Turek said,... we need to remember that "a church is a hospital for sinners and not a country club for saints".
Consider watching various local churches in your area online until you find one you are comfortable with.
You could be a great blessing to many!
@@pvmoore1154 Thank you kindly.
I’ve been on this journey now for almost a decade and one thing I definitely recommend is the Tao Te Ching. To truly understand that being happy or being loved is not the most important things. That one must let go of these concepts of this or that, it limits out contentment and out enjoyment of this life we’ve come to live.
I wish you all the best. And I hope that nothing that has happened to you or that will happen, solidifies and hardens your joy and peace. And your ability to love generously.
@@MAX-TECH-INC thank you🌻
I was never in the JW cult, but I did have a narcissistic mother, so that much is what I understand. Yes, they try to beat you down in any religion! What an excuse to do their own child wrong. My sympathies. Hope you find another church that will support you. 🥰
Watchtower is great at leading people away from God. They are even better at destroying family and relationships.
14:35 and on, great advise and shared knowledge!🌿❤☕

@@SidLamar Although I'm only an 'almost baptised bible study' I get shunned.
That's because somebody recognised me on television during a JW protest at Amsterdam.
Today I went shopping and two members of my former congregation fled in a shop to avoid me....
Sad cult...

Thanks Sid You're a beautiful yeah the evil that goes on I n that organization.
Thank you Sid for being here and sharing your very hesrfult raw feelings! I'm a pimo who hasn't left yet. I'm working on it tho.
Thanks. There's no BS in the Bible. The JW Bible is different to the normal Bible such as NIV or KJV.
Man cannot live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds out the mouth of God.
I've read it all and it all makes sense.
@flatearthevidence8473 just my opinion. I don't agree with everything in the Bible.
According to the WT There is no good reason to leave "the truth". You must stay even if you have doubts (don't tell anyone). You must stay even if you are unhappy. You must stay even if you no longer agree with the teachings. You must stay even if it costs you your job. You must stay even if your whole family leaves the WT. So how do I get out? I guess the only way out without anyone rejecting you is in a body bag (and that's not even guaranteed because they can always smear your reputation after you die...).
@@laymanphil8513 Wow! They really have stepped up their "culty" tactics. That's awful. Be strong. You can do it. 🌻
Many remain PIMO (physically in, mentally out), until they can make a safe and sound exit plan. At least you are THINKING. You’ll develop the right plan for you in your timing. God is with you, your Journey is Beginning. Congratulations for becoming strong! All exJWs are on your side! We’ve been through it too! ❤
Many are suing for the “marking” and spoiling of a person’s good name and character now. Document everything. Even if it’s at the smallest Court, for a claim, people are taking those slights of character quite seriously now.
Thank you so much for sharing. You are truly helping so many people. God bless you 🙏🏾

Don’t apologize for cursing. People say that swear words show lack of vocabulary but I’ve found that when you start adding adjectives and combinations and maybe sprinkle in a lil homophobia and racism .. *chefs kiss*..

@@SidLamar Amen sister, there's only 1 truth and it's Jesus Christ, his gospel, his teachings, watchtower have placed themselves as " the truth " which is very deceptive and dangerous, you'll be okay, stay in the fellowship of Jesus Christ teachings 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🕊

Thank you🎉❤

You seem to have a lot of resentment towards your parents. I was DFed from the hall, but my parents were only disappointed, but i never felt any lack of love, so i know it was easier for me in that regard. I did have lifelong friends who cut me off completely, though. I always try to remember that they were as brainwashed as i had once used to be, and im sure your parents feel like they are doing what is right towards you. I dont know if narcissism is the right word for people who have been brainwashed by a cult because they feel their choices are limited on how they can treat you. Almost everyone believes they're doing the most moral thing regardless if its unfounded.
@@kennyreid6708 There was a lot more that I didn't say. They are definitely narcissistic.
Good you're no longer a JW but once get involved once again in any religious organisations,2Peter 2:20-22 is really not a joke.
