Been almost a year and a half out. (was the standard eyes opened, told spouse, got a divorce over it, submitted my letter, etc)
I have never looked back. I had a few withdrawals like looking over my shoulder to buy beer (like I was murdering someone), and other programming to undo, but I am completely out.
2 months ago my ex wife stopped by to told me she had stopped believing (a year later..no kids fyi), but has chosen to remain due to family peer pressure. I got a full apology.
And two days ago the missionaries found me outside listening to some violent music. I turned it down out of kindness and stopped to talk to them. When they finally asked (after asking if I knew of anyone, or if I myself needed any service) if I have ever heard of the Book for Mormon I told them I was an ex Mormon. I then told them if they are curious why I would be happy to discuss doctrine and history with them. All I got was a 'good to know' and a good 'talking to you'. Ha.
