Glad you made it. The journey out is usually not an easy one, but hopefully you've found it a liberating experience.
Yes, I think I know what you mean, if you mean that you have a lot on your mind.
On leaving one of the first things I noticed was almost everything I did was rewarding for a change. I found mearly everything I did for the group futile. Even if I have to make sacrifices now, it's so much easier to do things that are good for me and my family, to make decisions that bring about lasting improvement and nourishment into my life. It was a step to learn to allow myself to thrive for a change, to stop living self-denial. I had to give myself time and space to process and detox, to sort through my experiences.
Let us know whatever you're going through, and if you need any help with anything.
You said "we" - did you leave with your wife and children? What prompted you to make the break and leave?
