Talk with Jehovah God in prayer.
Allow God talk to you by reading His Word.

Hi! I am also one of Jehovah's Witnesses. You sound like you really need to unload, and maybe just talk things through. I am a mom and a sister (spiritually), and my kids think I am pretty understanding and so do my younger friends. You can visit my profile and e-mail me through the link there if you would like, I would love to talk with you. I have several good friends on here that I keep in touch with, and that helps me when I need to talk and no one is understanding...also there are others in the congregation (yours) that you could talk to...I have found that some of the women who have been in the truth for a while are so kind and loving and easy to talk with, and more than willing to listen. Satan loves it when we feel isolated and lonely, so reach out to someone where you are, you know if they are active Witnesses that they are there to help. You would be surprised at the response you might get if you reached out to them for advice, or just conversation...they don't know you are lonely unless you tell them. I know sometimes when we feel like you describe that it is hard to talk to others, but it helps so much. Pray to Jehovah about this, really pour your heart out to him, you might be surprised, too, at how quickly someone will be there for you. I will gladly listen in the mean time through e-mail. My prayers are with you, too!

You really didn't ask us a question for us to give you an answer to.
Are you a witness ?
Is your mother a witness ?
Do witnesses confuse you
What are you feeling over welmed about.
What doesn't your dad care about ?
What is it you want to vent.
You can e-mail me.
Sincerely yours,
Fred M. Hunter

Everyone experiences feeling alone and being lonely at times. We need other people to lift us up in the Love of Jesus.
We may need others to pray for us or just give us a word of encouragement.
Sometimes, we just need to time to appreciate all that God has given to us--list everything you have and all the blessings God has given to you and thank him for it.
Ask God to bring true followers of Jesus to be your friends. Be friendly and open and you will have the opportunity to meet others who are spiritually minded and want to follow Jesus.
Ask God to give you the holy spirit to be your comforter.
John 14:16 "and I will request the Father and he will give YOU another helper to be with YOU forever" (NWT)
John 14:16, "And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;" (KJV)
I am praying for you. God is faithful and he will bring you through.

Hebrew 6:9-10 "However, in YOUR case, beloved ones, we are convinced of better things and things accompanied with salvation, although we are speaking in this way. 10 For God is not unrighteous so as to forget YOUR work and the love YOU showed for his name, in that YOU have ministered to the holy ones and continue ministering"

Have you ever considered talking to someone who's not a Jehova's witness... I don't mean about religion, but just talking to someone else to get things that are bothering you off of your chest?
