What are some religious tendencies you still have even after deconstruction and leaving the church?

I was watching a video essay on religious residue and I was curious to see what other people struggle with. Like for example having a hard time saying “Oh my god” and substituting it for “gosh.”

One I have is struggling with not calling those I used to attend church with bother / sister [insert last name]. Sometimes I find myself struggling to remember their first name due to me just referring to them as brother or sister.
