Jehovah's Witnesses followers sue Japanese government The plaintiffs claim that the guidelines violate religious freedom and are unconstitutional, also demanding compensation of ¥2 million per person from the state.

Interesting... 🙄 The cult is trying to fight back, but they have no credibility!

From Cult to Cam Girl: Trauma, Addiction & Healing | Ex-Jehovah's Witness Women | Roxanne's Story Click the link below to: https://linktr.ee/alissasawake • Share your story on camera • Share your story in an anonymous letter • Ask a question about the Jehovah’s Witnesses • Find ways you can support the channel _________________________________________ In this powerful episode, Roxanne @theroxannemiller shares her raw and deeply personal story of growing up in a high-control religious environment and the lasting impact it had on her life. Born into the Jehovah’s Witnesses, Roxanne opens up about childhood trauma, abuse she endured, and the pressure to suppress her identity from a young age. After leaving the organization, she found herself navigating a world she was never prepared for, turning to the adult entertainment industry, alcohol, tattoos and food as a way to cope and numb the pain. She vulnerably shares how being raised to seek external validation shaped her choices, how shunning from her family affected her sense of self, and the difficult journey of recognizing and healing from deep-rooted trauma. This is not just a story about leaving Jehovah’s Witnesses, it's about survival, self-discovery, and the long road to healing. _________________________________________ My mission is to create a safe space where women feel empowered to use their voices and share their stories because I truly believe your experiences can inspire and help others.

Lifelong Consequences After a Short Time as a JW | Ex-Jehovah's Witness Women | Beata's Story Click the link below to: https://linktr.ee/alissasawake • Share your story on camera • Share your story in an anonymous letter • Ask a question about the Jehovah’s Witnesses • Find ways you can support the channel _________________________________________ Today I had the privilege of sitting down with Beata as she shares her powerful journey; from seeking out the Jehovah’s Witnesses as a teenager in Poland, to being forced to flee to Australia due to religious persecution. As a refuge in Australia, Beata saw a different side of the organization that helped her to start to truly see this wasn't the "truth". Beata discusses her upbringing, her spiritual awakening, and the challenges she faced within the religion. From seeing first hand how predators are handled, to witnessing the conditional love and support. Beata used everything she experienced as a way to analyze this organization she was told was the truth. And now she courageously shares her experience of leaving, overcoming abuse, and reclaiming her voice. Her story is one of resilience, critical thinking, and rediscovering self-worth, showing what healing and true independence can look like after leaving a high-control environment. _________________________________________ My mission is to create a safe space where women feel empowered to use their voices and share their stories because I truly believe your experiences can inspire and help others.

Growing Up In The Jehovah's Witness Cult In The 90s Was Not Easy. Sunday, ‎May ‎29, ‎2022 This was filmed in Sunday, ‎May ‎29, ‎2022 When I was going through a very difficult time in my life. Living in poverty, addicted to marijuana, and being mentally and phytologically abused by a narcissist who had abandoned me and my son at the time and taken all the money out of our joint account. The pain was unbearable so I decided to vent and talk about my past. I never released these videos at the time because I just had too much going on, but now I am in a much better place. I am healing and am ready to share this very personal version of my story. I also have a different view of my mother than I did in this video. I no longer see her as a "narcissistic psychopath" I view her as a victim of this cult and other things that happened in her life than now explain her behavior when I was a kid. I hope this video helps at least one person.

EX-Jehovah's Witness: 'Shunning is Spiritual Genocide' Christine Cisneroz was raised as one of Jehovah's Witnesses. When she came out at 17, she was punished and ostracized because Jehovah's Witnesses are forbidden from being openly gay. After her devout mother kicked her out of the house, Christine was forced to find her way in the world. While she would eventually create a successful life for herself, she wants the outside world to understand in no uncertain terms the damage Jehovah's Witnesses inflict upon families.

From Jehovah's Witness to "Disfellowdipped" (Jordan's Story) | Healed-ish: Episode 57 Jordan was raised as one of Jehovah’s Witnesses, where his childhood revolved around church meetings, strict rules, and going door to door to share what he believed was the truth. In this episode, he shares what it was like growing up in that environment, from confessing sins to elders to the belief that they are the one true religion, including teachings like the 144,000. We also talk about some of the more surprising aspects of the faith, like no voting, no birthdays, and restrictions around blood transfusions. Since leaving, Jordan has experienced being shunned by his family, but he has also found his voice. He now shares on TikTok under the name “disfellowdipped,” using humor to talk about some of the wildest parts of the religion while also raising awareness about deeper issues within the culture.

Why You Should Say NO to the Jehovah’s Witness Memorial Click the link below to: https://linktr.ee/alissasawake • Share your story on camera • Share your story in an anonymous letter • Ask a question about the Jehovah’s Witnesses • Find ways you can support the channel _________________________________________ Every year around this time, thousands of former Jehovah’s Witnesses receive the same message: “Are you coming to the Memorial this year?” For many ex-JWs, that invitation isn’t just a simple question, it’s often filled with pressure, guilt, and emotional expectations from family still inside the organization. In this video, I talk about why saying “no” to the Jehovah’s Witness Memorial can be one of the most important boundaries you set after leaving. Many people attend the Memorial just to keep the peace with family. But what message does that actually send? And why does attending often keep the cycle of pressure going year after year? _________________________________________ My mission is to create a safe space where people feel empowered to use their voices and share their stories because I truly believe your experiences can inspire and help others. With love, Alissa

I Refused to Raise My Kids in This Cult | Ex-Jehovah's Witness Women | Audrey's Story Find the Interview Contact Form, Ask Alissa, and all other links here:👇🏼 https://linktr.ee/alissasawake ______________________________________ Today I had the privilege of sitting down with Audrey as she shares her powerful and deeply personal story about growing up as one of Jehovah’s Witnesses and the journey that eventually led her to question the organization she was raised to trust. Audrey’s family was first introduced to the religion after a simple knock on the door from Jehovah’s Witnesses, a moment that would ultimately shape the course of her childhood and family life. In this conversation, she reflects on what it was like growing up inside a high-control religious environment, including the loss of birthdays and holidays, the expectations placed on young members, and the constant pressure to conform. Audrey also shares the heartbreaking loss of her father as a result of the organization’s blood transfusion policy, a tragedy that profoundly impacted her life and became a pivotal moment in her journey. Facing that loss forced her to begin asking difficult questions about doctrine, authority, and the cost of unquestioned loyalty. Through honesty and reflection, Audrey discusses the gradual process of questioning, researching, and ultimately finding the courage to think critically about the beliefs she once accepted without question. Her story sheds light on the emotional and personal realities many experience when leaving Jehovah’s Witnesses, and it serves as an important reminder that questioning and seeking truth are powerful steps toward healing and freedom. If you’ve ever struggled with faith, religious control, or rebuilding your life after leaving a high-control religion, Audrey’s story is one you won’t want to miss. ______________________________________ My mission is to create a safe space where women feel empowered to use their voices and share their stories because I truly believe your experiences can inspire and help others.
