Religious Switching / Denominational Switching

When you move from one religion or belief system to another

• You leave a fundamentalist church and start exploring progressive or mystical faiths.

• You shift from a high-control religion to being spiritual but not religious.

• You move from believing in a deity to not believing in any deities.

Potential clinical implications (especially in high control settings)

• Grief and disorientation may occur as old systems are let go.

• Fear of repeating past mistakes may hinder spiritual exploration.

• Pressure to fully conform to a new belief system may feel overwhelming.
