It gets lighter, even if it doesn’t feel like it right now

I left Islam and felt scared for a long time. Part of me even wanted to go back just to feel safe again. But after a few months, that fear slowly faded. Now I feel lighter, like a huge weight is gone.

I am really grateful to this community, because reading others’ experiences helped me get through that phase.

If you’re going through the same thing, it doesn’t stay like this. It gets easier.
