Greetings Patrick!
You have brought up a good question, one that I believe really requires some thought and serious reflection. I will attempt to address some of these most difficult issues below, that one might face, when making this all-important decision.
First of all let me say, evidently the Divine Truths or "Living Waters" that you have learned thus far, I believe, have indeed affected your conscience so that you (as an unbaptized publisher) have decided to completely withdraw and leave the Kingdom Hall, because of some of the things that you have learned. No doubt you have made this decision because of the false teachings, false prophecies, and outright wickedness and idolatry fostered by the Watchtower Society and Jehovah's Witnesses in recent years.
Actually, we couldn't agree with you more on such things, especially the United Nations NGO Scandal that has been widely publicized since October 2001, that has stumbled so many faithful brothers who have heard about this deplorable situation.
So, since you have made this final decision for yourself, then I would encourage you to keep to your heartfelt conviction and stay away from kingdom of Jehovah's Witnesses, in their present state of "idolatry." Just as God's Word recommends in all such cases, we should "flee from idolatry." No, that Godly requirement for pure worship has not changed. -- 1 Corinthians 10:14
When a Jehovah's Witnesses come to know more about the situation, the real state of affairs that we Jehovah's Witnesses are facing, and how in his mind he begins to see the Watchtower Society as being the prophetic fulfillment of Babylon the Great, then such a decision could be quite stressful, since many family ties, congregational ties, close friendships will be affected by such a decision, that is to permanently remove oneself from the midst of the now adulterous, unfaithful congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses. (Ezekiel 16:59-63)
Just as Jesus said, such a decision to officially "disassociate" oneself from the Jehovah's Witnesses organization would no doubt "divide" all families involved, and bring a sword, not peace within the families affected. Nevertheless, this is the very reason that Jesus came to earth, to make such a division, over the issue of truth and righteousness. (Matthew 6:33; John 18:37) Jesus said:
"Do not think I came to put peace upon the earth; I came to put, not peace, but a sword. For I came to cause division, with a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a young wife against her mother-in-law. Indeed, a man's enemies will be persons of his own household." -- Matthew 10:34-36
Therefore, we all realize that Divine Truth, "Living Waters", actually can divide God's People, since one may find himself "on the side of truth," where the others of his family or friends/acquaintances are not. -- John 18:37
Therefore, it would help if you considered some of the following points that the Bible provides for us, to assist us in making such a decision.
First of all, at 2 Corinthians 6:14-18 , Paul counsels us to stay completely away from the unclean thing...not to even "touch it." He further states for christians to "Get out from among them," that is, those practicing religious lawlessness or spiritual apostasy.
These words of Paul, actually are drawn from the situation of captivity to ancient Babylon, where faithful Israelites were faced with the decision to leave ancient Babylon in haste, escape their previous captors, taking along with them the "utensils" of the temple, to restore pure worship back in Israel, their homeland. Paul's words, drawn from the prophet's Isaiah's, show that in order for them to do this effectively, Israel must free itself from all pagan associations with false worship, fostered in Babylon at that time. -- See Isaiah 52:11.
Therefore, when a person comes to realize that the Watchtower Society, in a modern day sense, actually becomes the modern day counterpart of ancient Babylon, holding Jehovah's Witnesses (Israel) is virtual slavery and false worship and idolatry, then this one must "flee" Babylon, as recommended by the prophets of old. He comes to realize that Babylon was at one time useful to Jehovah God, acting as his "servant," but now has become useless, a "golden cup" in the hand of God, that now must be discarded as idolatrous, worthless, since she has made all of her followers, nations, "drunk with the wine of her fornication." The infamous Library Card Lie, and the prevailing "new light" that the UN Organization is no longer to be considered to be the "disgusting thing" or Matthew 24:15 and "Scarlet-Colored Wild Beast" of Revelation 17th chapter, as now being taught by the collective members of the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses, constitutes the "wine of her fornication," and the further development of the UN NGO Scandal itself has recently set the stage for such a conclusion on our part. (Jeremiah 51:6, 7; Rev. 14:8; Rev. 17:2)

Therefore, as we continue to contemplate the Watchtower Society's lawlessness in this affair, we realize that action is thus, required upon our parts, lest we share with Babylon in her "sins" and become a "sharer" in her deeds of misconduct before God. -- Revelation 18:4
Therefore based upon these reasons stated above, we at the YORWW Congregation would say it is an act of "uncleanness" for us to re-enter the unclean congregations of Jehovah's Witnesses, especially since October 2001, when this wicked act was exposed for all to see by Jehovah God himself. Afterall, isn't it true that such an act, makes Jehovah's Witnesses, a proven and established people of spiritual "fornication" because of the United Nations NGO Scandal, in God's eyes? We would say yes to that question. (Leviticus 4:3)
Therefore, once a person has agreed to leave, then I think he should not go back at all, and start to "touch the unclean thing" all over again. -- 2 Corinthians 6:17
We recall Revelation 18:4 saying,
"...get out of her, my people, if you do not want to share with her in her sins, and if you do not want to receive part of her plagues."
This command is thus directed to God's People, the "my people" who are mentioned in this verse. The "my people" who becomes the nation of Israel, who was in ancient times, in captivity to ancient Babylon for 70 years. Therefore a unique "paradigm" has been established for us today. A modern day escape, from a modern day entity of enslavement, a modern day "Babylon the Great" of our times, who has enslaved modern day "Israel," Jehovah's Witnesses ever since their taking the name of God upon themselves, in 1931. 70 years of slavery from October 1931 to October 2001.
So we can see exactly where Revelation 18:4 comes into play and how this direct "command" of God is to be correctly understood for our day and time. This verse clearly shows that we must get completely away from Babylon the Great, "get out of her," unless we ourselves wish to "share in her sins" before God. Its clear Babylon the Great is an unclean place, a place where the unclean spirits, demons are lurking, as Revelation 18:2 shows us. This then, surely would be an environment that we would want to avoid, at all costs.
Revelation 12:5 assures us that many faithful Jehovah's Witnesses will come to recognize these facts as mentioned above. They will come to the same conclusions, that many of us today, have reached. These individual Jehovah's Witnesses will group together, and join forces, to form what we call, the "Male Child." Even now, as we speak, there are those who are on the verge of making that all-important decision, to officially come out of the Watchtower Society, and write their letters of disassociation, and leave filthy, idolatrous Babylon. These ones I speak of, will form the "Male Child," of Revelation 12:5, an earthly kingdom government. -- Daniel 2:44; Revelation 5:10
These individual Jehovah's Witnesses I speak of, are currently right now, making their private assessment of the situation at hand, concerning the Watchtower Society and Jehovah's Witnesses as a organization. They are contemplating their life course now, and what to do about this situation. But, before they write their final letter of disassociation from the JW Organization, these individuals truly want to be completely convinced within their own minds, the Watchtower Society, is in fact, Babylon The Great of bible prophecy, who enslaves 6 million Jehovah's Witnesses, and leads them into idolatry before God today.
Therefore, when they become fully convinced of this fact, then I'm confident, that they will do as so many others have done, they then feel completely comfortable writing their letters of dissassociation on their own, with bible prophecy indicating that they may wish to do so as a group. These people may show themselves in the near future, the very near future, as the "Male Child," who are interested in re-establishing pure worship on earth as Jehovah's faithful servants did when leaving ancient Babylon of times past.
Hope this helps.

If not, is there anything in particular that I should be careful about when visiting
