Maybe it is easy for some, but for me, I was into it for so many years that it's hard to let go of beliefs that I held so strongly for all that time. I've had experiences that I can't forget and just pretend never happened. I've seen some ex-occultist or ex-pagan types who just walk away instantly but that hasn't been the case for me. It's been an internal tug-of-war for me.
Why is it hard to get out of it? I'm genuinely curious as to why ... I'm not suggesting that it should be easy.
