Jehovah’s Witness Recovery

If you are a former JW, you are invited visit www.JehovahsWitnessRecovery.com, also known as JWR. It is a resource-rich website and forum specifically for ex witnesses.

The purpose of the forum is to provide a positive and encouraging environment for former Jehovah’s Witnesses, to help with the transition from the organization into normal society, and to promote positive healing and recovery. It is primarily intended to help former Jehovah’s Witnesses but is inclusive of all people who have been in some way affected by or are interested in the Watchtower Society.

I decided to create the JWR website and community forum for a few reasons. I struggled for many years with the aftermath of being raised as a Jehovah’s Witness and what that meant as I moved through my adult life. Certainly there were residual effects, some positive, many negative; all of which crept into my life and influenced my relationships. I found that nearly a decade after my exit the one thing that helped me the most was the support of others who had been through similar experiences. I found a great deal of comfort in being able to share my story and experiences with others after bottling them up for so many years. My hope is that individuals who are beginning the exit process, or even current Jehovah’s Witnesses who have questions, will have a positive community environment to come to and find a place to begin healing.
