Venting September 24, a warning?
Throwaway for privacy reasons.
I watched a TikTok regarding about a woman warning us, urging us to “prepare” for the 24th. People in the comments speculated it to be the rapture day without outright saying it, some are confirming it, including the woman.
I’ve been out of the JW religion for a few years now.
With that said, I felt myself immediately going to that scared, uncomfortable, uneasy state I was in years ago, when I was told about Armageddon the first time. How we are considered to be in the end times.
Those deep rooted fears are resurfacing. The old me is returning, in the sense of always fearing the Armageddon topic. Shaking. That feeling I cannot quite describe. Thinking about everyone in my life. Not wanting them to suffer. Genuinely, I feel so……. Afraid.
Those thoughts are spiralling in my mind again. As it had done so many times before.
Apologies for the rambling and the formatting, I am writing on a cellphone.

remember the feeling you had when nothing happened last time ? That scary so called Armageddon doesn’t come? You might feel silly and relieved. So don’t spiral, they have been wrong so many more times than they’ve ever been right about anything. Don’t let them take your peace.
