I didn't have any reason, I couldn't even spell reason. Atheism isn't a comment on reasons, it's a comment on a state of belief. In my case that state of belief has never changed. I don't know that there's any data to mine from me, as to what you're looking to understand. Honestly, your question could only apply to deconverts, and that makes it a fundamentally malformed question, for bias. Deconverts would be expected to have a similar experience, even if that experience was not representative of atheism, or any other demographic other than deconverts.
TLDR version..deconversion narratives have much, muich more to do with belief in god, than a lack of the same.
I'm still an atheist for the exact same "reason" I was before. I don't believe in gods. There is no other criteria or "reason", for atheism. That's all that atheism is.
