I 100% agee! We will never be the same people that we were before we left. We are not bragging but we both feel we are better people. We can finally soar and not worry about what everyone will think.

Planting and potting guilt-free begonias by the hundreds, happy and peaceful, for sure.

Glad to see that you've reached equilibrium at happy and at peace, Snare.
Hopefully more of us who're TTATT-aware can reach happy/at peace and stay there.

True, but if you still have family in, the cycle can repeat from the beginning (minus the guilt).

We all , who have left, gone through many of your list.
Keep going... it will get much better. Even great!

No guilt here - No fear of Armageddy either. Still working on the anger I'm sad to say.
