I used to be scared shitless after scary movies, like crap, the bad guy is going to get me while I am sleeping or something. Now I just sleep like a baby after a scary movie. Even after supernatural movies---like religious ones...
What's weird though, is that this fear stopped in me, and allowed me to sleep better at night mind you, when I stopped beleiving in God...
is this not strange? Now I feel empowered. I don't feel scared anymore about myself or my soroundings at night. I feel at peace, because I don't have to be scared of being naughty with God and he punishing me, or being bad and the devil taking me....Its just me, and myself....and this gives me peace...
even dying and not having an afterlife, awkwardly, gives me peace...
have people had similar experiences?
