"My Life as a Jehovah's Witness Was Full of Pain" | Dominique's Story

from Alissa's Awake · host Alissa

This conversation talks about how vulnerable people can be taken advantage of, the pressure and isolation that often happens inside the community, and the doubts and expectations that shaped Dominique's life for years.We also talk about the impact of trauma and depression, how assault was handled inappropriately, and what it’s like to go through loss with very little real support. We talk about how love and acceptance in the organization is conditional, what life looks like after leaving, and some advice for people who are questioning or thinking about getting out.
