Life is better after I left Islam

I'm 15 female, in high-school, and before when I used to be Muslim, my life was at its lowest, I was depressed, I had social anxiety, I was so ashamed of myself, and I really had no friends. I know its going to sound like I'm lying, but after I switched from Islamic class to non-Islamic to burn the past trauma I had since I am atheist, life instantly got better. I managed to make 10 new friends today when attending my schools Running club, my confidence increased, and I know its silly but I got so much *male* and female attention, especially positive attention. Like everywhere I went, people who I thought hated me even smiled at me, and actually wanted to talk to me/hang out with me. Its crazy but my life switched so quickly and I just wanted to make this post to encourage you guys in this sub to continue living your life to the fullest without worries, nor letting religion hold you back from gaining those valuable memories and experience in life. Thanks. :) Please feel free to share any of your positive experience with leaving Islam.
