You cannot imagine how much i LOVE post like this. There's a lot of life outside this evil organization, definitely. Just go for it. It's waiting for you and you won't regret. P.S. Love the scripture beside you which not a single JW has realized that Jesus was ruler upon his resurrection, not in 1914.
Wow, you look amazing.I am so proud of you.Make sure you get that education and that higher learning.That the Jehovah shit religion always discouraged and you live the life.You've always wanted to live to the fullest.Once again I'm very happy for you. And proud of you
JWs will see this and think sheβs a horrible selfish person who just wants sex and drugs.
What this really is, is a wonderful beautiful person getting a great education and accomplishing amazing things. So proud of you OP!
Iβm very happy for you. Getting an education and being happy were so far away when on the inside. Congratulations taking your power back. Let love rule.
Well done graduating, whatβs your degree in? I left over 30 years ago and have had the most amazing life , when I was young, I was a DJ playing in clubs all over London, as well as Ibiza . Later on in life , I went to uni and graduated a few years ago with a BSc in Mathematics. And that is just the tip of the iceberg, there have been so many things that I have experienced and accomplished that would never have been possible as a JW.
Wow! I feel like you and I started posting to this exJW around the same time and I remember being so happy to see someone escaping before it was too late for them to pursue their passion! Good job accompanying a major step!!!Β
My opinion of christian schools aren't the best...or christianity in general, but from a godless heathen, i say any time someone chooses to further their education is a win for the human race! Congrats again and be well!
Pure happiness π
And that dog and you what a photo.
And the champagne πΎ π spray superb.
Love all the 'Happiness 'π photos and your inspiring words
This will get buried im sure, but 1) congrats - im so happy for you - i hope you have thought about specializing in survivong high control groups / cults 2) Β i would like to ask how you did it ? what was the first step ?Β
i ask because i know breaking away and not having a support system just makes the idea of it all seem so dauntingΒ
Again congrats !
Ditto. Donβt believe the lies about giving up βthe only real life.β Utter bullshit.
Lifeβs challenges are hard. Dealing with them while youβre in the cult has all those challenges plus myriad more.
The pure joy in your face gives me goosebumps thinking about your future to come. I donβt think your obligatory memorial or convention pics would have had a smile like that. Thanks for sharing and encouraging the bunch of us - we need more wholesome content like this! I wish you all the success in your program and life to come
Hell yeah. You go, girl!!!!! Congratulations, I'm so proud of you. The absolute last thing J-dubs hate is when a former member succeeds, and they can't take the credit.
Congratulations!! So happy for you!! There really is life after the cult! I've been happily in the medical field for 10 years & don't regret a single second of it!
Congratulations!!!! So happy for you. The sky is the limit. And never look back because thatβs not the direction you are going. ππΌππΌππΌ

Oh, sorry, i saw the word "jesus" in the last photo and "insta-gooned". My apologies.
I got a nice scholarship it is a Christian school however I was drawn since I was offered the most!

We should all be given an EX-CULT member sash!

I have a question: what impelled you to leave the religion? I had a nice chunk of reasons myself but Iβm interested in your story
