Doubts Before Embracing Islam

Assalamu alaikum, everyone. I’m a Christian woman who found Islam through my Muslim husband. I’ll be honest: at first, it was curiosity-just wanting to understand him better. But as I explored, I discovered a faith that felt more genuine to me. Even now, when I make dua and ask Allah for guidance, I find my answers. The struggle is, sometimes I get hit with heavy doubts. I fear disappointing my parents and feel like I’m betraying my culture. I know they’re different things, but so many traditions come from religion, you know? And it doesn’t help that my husband’s family influences him-they’re really narrow-minded and practice Islam in a way that’s, well, a bit backward (they’re from a particular background, and I know not everyone is like that, quite the opposite). All this gives me a lot of anxiety. I just want to know if any reverts have gone through these deep crises and how they got past it. Please don’t judge me-I’m really looking for help and hope you can offer some.
