r/exjwmeetup

Hi there. I am in Manitoba Canada. Being an ex jw is extremely isolating here. I am sure I am not the only one in my city who has left/been df'ed. However, it seems like leaving means hiding, basically going underground. I am looking to make new friends who I can at least go for coffee with. Depressing to have escaped but not only shunned by every single person in the cult, but also have no one outside either.

Please dm me if you are local. Even if you just want to start at least with getting to know each other over text/calls/online. I will be seeking out a church to try to make friends that way, but as we know, coming out of the cult is a very unique situation which others can't comprehend.

I don’t go on Reddit allot and I’m not sure how to used it idk if Im reaching the right audience hopefully but my question I guess is how did you leave “The truth” for me I’m only 20 I live with my parents my whole family is Jehovah’s Witness this whole cult or whatever it is is just so depressing to me I just feel so stuck and lost and I don’t know what to do and I don’t have a car I barely have any money I’m always in a constant state of saving and loosing money and saving and loosing money helping my parents with bills so I’m just at my breaking point and I don’t know what to do so I mean whatever advice or help anyone would be willing to give me would be greatly appreciated.

I know a couple, but would like to meet more. I even think they used to have Apostate Fest, or something like that in Indy a few years ago.

I’m just a Southern Indiana PIMO slowly making his escape looking to connect. Hit me up sometime!
