Hello athesist planet. Just lost my faith. Now What?

[Aegon]

Hello Forum:

I'm now at the end of the process of losing my faith. I used to be a Muslim. Now, Who the hell knows??!   I from a very conservative religious country. It shall not be named (Hint: desert+oil) It took me five or six years to arrive here. I was on the fence for two years.
I was a very ideological Muslim. Although, I wasn't practicing much. However, I was very enthusiastic about "Islam and its glory".
Anyway, here I am today, writing in an atheist forum!
I need to hear from those who have been through this phase. What should I do now? I can't be "business as usual". What should I expect? How should I approach life now? The only approach I had my entire life is the Islamic religious approach. Now, How should I live my life? Where should I take my morals from? I don't think atheists have no morals BTW but I have no idea how do they approach morality.

Now, it seems like I have to rethink my whole life. My whole future. 

Keep in mind that I can't come out as an atheist, otherwise, I'm going to lose everyone I care about. Damn religion.

 

Anyone went through a similar experience and have any advice for me?

Hi.

I was raised Catholic, not Muslim, so I can't speak to some specifics or potential danger of "coming out" as a non-believer. But I think I understand the general feeling of losing your worldview. Transitioning from believing in God to not believing is world-shattering. Here is a quote from Pema Chodron that I like quite a bit:

The difference between theism and non-theism is not [necessarily] whether one does or does not believe in God. Theism is a deep-seated conviction that there's some hand to hold: if we just do the right things, someone will appreciate us and take care of us. . . Non-theism is relaxing with the ambiguity and uncertainty of the present moment without reaching for anything to protect ourselves.

One could say you've been a bird tethered with a string. That attachment to the string has kept you safe, held you in the air, and you've relied on it. Now you've severed that string, so you feel as though you are crashing and burning. However, that is not the case. You just haven't yet realized you're capable of flight on your own.
