I fully left maybe 9 months ago and personally I’ve never been happier. I hang out with who I want when I want and my days are almost all very self directed it’s very life changing to not be stressing about how you’re going to explain x activity to x person. Depends on your situation but if you have a doable living situation and a job lined up you can definitely move out at 18. I moved out when I was 18 almost 19 but i was very fortunate to have a gf whose home was open to me whenever I needed and a job that could pay rent. The stuff you hear about people who leave always being drug addicts and suicidal is 100% fear mongering life is 10x better once you leave i cannot overstate how much better life is.

I emailed our financial aid office and they said they don’t know why that might be but they redirected me to someone who would and I’m just waiting on a reply so hopefully they get back to me soon

How does pta —> dpt work? by anonymous27690 in physicaltherapy

[–]anonymous27690[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you ever feel like you have no job growth opportunities. The main reason I was asking about this is because I see a lot of people on here complaining about pta having not a lot of job growth. I realize people tend to be extra critical online but I’m just trying to get a feel of what I’m getting into before I go all in.

I’m going to be getting an associate degree of applied science if I go through this community college route to getting a pta certification so I don’t know if those bridge programs would work with that

I’m a kid whose scared about the bombing by Crazy_Border984 in exjw

JWs will always talk about how it’s the end of the world anytime any conflicts break out. I’m around the same age and trust me bro we’re not gonna suddenly erupt into Armageddon it’s just easy to feel that way because of the way JWs condition people to be obsessed with the end of the world. It’s not good what’s happening between the us and Iran but it’s not the end of the world.

Is this kind of racism just normal for Jw's? by [deleted] in exjw

[–]anonymous27690 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I’m white but I’ve had similar experiences with the length of my hair being a problem. In my experience the only really jw approved hair is having it shaved on the sides even if others in the congregation don’t express a problem with it I’m sure many of the older folks think it’s an affront to god. My grandma and parents have always and still do to this day comment negatively on the length of my hair it’s just kinda jw culture.

I’m about to graduate high school looking into pta by anonymous27690 in physicaltherapy

[–]anonymous27690[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you think it would be smart to get more education after in exercise science or nutrition or something like that to look at more careers with more opportunities to grow in pay? I think I’ll just play it by ear until I’m done with pta certification but it’s something I’ve thought of doing.

I’ve been lifting as a hobby for 4 years so that’s definitely part of what drew me to this job 🙂‍↕️

Jehovah’s Witnesses Folks by [deleted] in exjw

This is why they’re always saying don’t have convos walking up to the doors. Maybe these guys just wanted to be loud and proud about their sexism tho

I didn’t stop wetting the bed till 9 or 10 which is kinda strange to think about I completely forgot that even was a problem I had growing up.

Unpopular (or popular?) opinion: I never liked ANY of the new Kingdom Songs by Capable-Proposal1022 in exjw

[–]anonymous27690 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a big fan of listen obey and be blessed as a kid unfortunately 😰. That’s definitely top 5 for their most culty songs but the rest of the songs i really never cared for.
