no longer
Ceased to be
No longer indicates that something which was once true or happening has ceased to be so.
It marks a change from past to present: She no longer works here, I can no longer ignore the problem.
The phrase emphasizes discontinuation rather than simple negation—saying someone no longer believes implies they once did.
