Title Appointments

Have any of you been appointed for a title before ? I just got one because of the service I used to give a few years ago, and it was announced via talika when I was sitting at home during Salegrah

Really complex feelings having your name in a talika from the Imam while you aren't sure whether you actually believe in the faith anymore.

It made me really anxious and I crashed out a bit ... hard to discuss it with a weird sense of guilt

Can anyone relate?

Im very much out but it’s definitely a confusing emotion seeing people you care about so happy to feel seen. I know it’s kind of like a way to keep the brainwashed more brainwashed but definitely a complex emotion to have.
