May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and in this powerful episode, we revisit the story of Tony — a former elder and third-generation Jehovah’s Witness — as he opens up about the emotional and psychological impact of growing up in the organization. Tony shares how guilt, fear, and pressure to “perform spiritually” affected his mental health over time — and why so many others may be suffering in silence today. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, isolated, or like your struggles were dismissed as “spiritual weakness,” this conversation is for you. 👇 If you're struggling or know someone who is: 📞 Call or text 988 (U.S.) 🌐 Global resources: 🔔 Subscribe for more interviews and resources for those leaving high-control religions. 💬 Share your thoughts in the comments — your story matters.
