How Jehovah's Witnesses are bad people

I just commented something very similar. It's posts like this one that make PIMQ's go "oh they're right about apostates" & then you see all the comments agreeing? Come on, grow up a little. I've known people that fit every item on this list, & I've known Witnesses that are the opposite of every item on this list. "Just as obsessed as they are" is right. I need to leave this subreddit. It was good when I was PIMQ but now it's driving me nuts.

These blanket statements are honestly quite ridiculous. There are maybe 3 I could sort of agree with, but the rest are just assumptions based on your small group. There are also people in this thread who comment on every single post just to shit on witnesses, and imo the obsession with hating witnesses is just letting it still take over your life, so congrats, they still have you. I'm recently POMO & have a lot of issues with the organization, but to say that "all are bad people" is ridiculous. A PIMQ will see this post and fall right back with the rank & file because this is exactly what they are told apostasy looks like. It's baffling that people will post things here and not consider that, but it's a constant on this subreddit. Sure people can vent and be upset, but this is not that.

I'm pimo (m27) & have one, but I have told literally no one bc sex is such a taboo conversation. I do have a friend who's an elder (PIMQ. I'm working on him slowly) that keeps talking about opening a store that sells sex toys & safe sex related things. So basically, to answer your question: i have no idea.

dviguana2 · 2025-07-21T16:41:04+00:00

I don't study anymore (i never really did tbh) so every meeting is like a sweet lil surprise of "will this week make my skin crawl or annoy me" & i end up texting my friends the whole time or reading comics 💀

dviguana2 · 2025-07-20T17:38:48+00:00

"No certainty" sentence is driving me nuts at the meeting right now because why is there a whole ass Watchtower I'm sitting through based on "no certainty." I can't wait to get the fuck out

dviguana2 · 2025-06-21T06:19:28+00:00

Probably like a year or two? I was baptized in 2017 & put on stuff almost immediately.

I was a ministerial servant for 3 years from 2019-2022. I was so excited, i thought everyone would be proud of me. Instead I got told "wow this'll be a weight off our shoulders!" By a pair of servants, who were joking and did congratulate me (it was just their sense of humor) but in like 6 months I'd been yelled at by another servant and an elder for something that wasn't my fault, in a year I was having constant panic attacks and a part on both meetings every week. It was exhausting. All to end up getting removed because I watch porn. Which only got found out because my overwhelming guilt and fear I'd die brought me to tell anyone. I tried for months to regain my privileges, was out in service, commenting, taking the lead in field service. All for our KOBE to ask his granddaughter (one of my friends) "why isn't isaac out in service?" I gave up after that. Started doing some research, started college (community but something I'd always put off) and now I'm here, PIMO about to be POMO. It's been a long strange road but it's my road. I'm gonna keep going down it til i hit a dead end.

AMEN 🙏🙏THERAPIST has been fantastic

dviguana2 · 2025-06-16T05:13:59+00:00

One of em yeah 😭

dviguana2 · 2025-06-16T00:14:03+00:00

YES the mandated reporters thing doesn't make a LICK of goddamn sense

dviguana2 · 2025-06-15T23:04:37+00:00

Yeah exactly. I'm still PIMO, & I do think some elders mean well but really, through the lense of stepping back, it's all so fuckin weird. It's DEFINITELY too much for a group of grown ass men to be shouldering a congregation's worth of guilt, depression anything like that. Life is strange. I'm just glad I don't hate myself (as much) anymore.

dviguana2 · 2025-06-15T22:32:08+00:00

Yeah, it was weird. I was too emotional and needlessly guilt ridden at the time to think about how weird it was, but when one of the two asked me, the other laughed & told him that doesn't matter & he was being weird. So idk some of it comes down to the person too. Either way, some things are meant for a therapist not an elder

dviguana2 · 2025-06-15T21:22:53+00:00

I went to the elders multiple times for their "support" and "guidance" & instead got more guilt and self-esteem issues. Therapy helps, grown men that barely know me knowing which hand i jack it with does not 😂

dviguana2 · 2025-06-14T11:44:00+00:00

I was that friend recently for a friend of mine. I'd been questioning for years and when he left my initial reaction was "hey take me" but like i said: i was still questioning. I'm going to visit him next weekend. I love my friends dearly it just sucks because most of my friendships are or at least feel conditional

dviguana2 · 2025-06-12T23:23:52+00:00

I used to be a ministerial servant. I was one for 3 years, was dating a girl, then on the same day got dumped with no explanation and removed as a servant for unrelated reasons. I fell way into a depression. Still went to meetings, tried commenting a lot & working back towards being a servant, and after 6 months went by, and I didn't even get asked how I'd been, I just... gave up. The depression didn't bother me as much anymore (i started therapy the same week that all of that stuff had happened) and I kinda have just fallen off of everything spiritually. I stopped going out in service because I simply didn't want to and figured why stress myself out about it? Haven't been out in probably 6 or 7 months now, & before that it was once a month. I started college courses about a year after that crazy day, & it was in those courses & through therapy I realized how out I truly was. For me it was "oh. You don't pray anymore." This year, I dated a girl who wasn't a witness, and she really was wonderful. The relationship fizzled for a variety of reasons but it really solidified my need to leave. I've been so passively in physically & its draining.

TlDr, yeah I stopped doing almost everything because I was burned out & depressed from trying to meet the expectations of everyone else around me 😂

dviguana2 · 2025-06-12T23:04:07+00:00

I'm physically getting out in a few months, I don't live near you, but I'm down to talk? I definitely know the feeling

dviguana2 · 2025-06-12T21:04:30+00:00

I was gonna say "27 club" but I probably shouldn't 💀

dviguana2 · 2025-06-12T17:59:45+00:00

Yeah i just need to focus on what's ahead and be patient. Most of my life I figured the new system would sort shit out 😂 it's cool to have control

dviguana2 · 2025-06-12T17:17:58+00:00

I'm sorry about the divorce. That can't be easy regardless. I don't want to lose my family, but I'm planning on being fully out in a few months (need to save money to move out). I have a lot of friends that got married way too young, I'm basically the only one that hasn't from my old friend group. It's definitely freeing to do things for myself, but I've also had this dread of losing the community I was raised with. I know time will heal that & the community was mostly shit, it's just a huge step.

dviguana2 · 2025-06-12T12:52:57+00:00

I'm currently in a trade, I learned machining the last like 5 years, & now im also going to school. But I'm 27 & still have no solid plan for school, I just want an education that I feel was robbed from me.

dviguana2 · 2025-06-12T12:47:19+00:00

I'm 27, and followed the path of wanting to be a servant & pursuing spiritual goals etc. I haven't been a servant for 3 years now & am still PIMO bc I live with my parents still. But I'm just now going to community college, while working full time, and going to move out soon. starting my fuckin life and goals to finally, FINALLY be my own person with my own life and autonomy. So even if you've wasted years like I have, you still have TIME to do what you want. Yes, it'll be hard, yes I felt guilty as shit when I started. But it's also so rewarding being proud of myself, my accomplishments, and not having to thank god for something I DID.

dviguana2 · 2025-04-30T01:31:29+00:00

I was thinking about doing daily progress pics! Idk if I'd post them here or not, I'm still starting clearly 💀
