RE: atheism making me more depresesd, what should i do?
Heya Leodeo,

As the saying goes, suicide is a long term solution to a short term problem.

Now the obligatory platitude is out of the way, I don't know how old you are and how long you've had BPD and depression (not that that I'm digging for info), but trust me, it does get better with time. There are treatments for depression, not so much for BPD. In a good proportion of BPD cases the symptoms do disappear. I know it's not much comfort here and now, but things do get better.

As far as why we're here and what our purpose is, I'm buggered if I know. What I do know, however, is that you have to figure out what makes you happy, what makes you content. Try to find things to occupy your mind, dwelling on it will only exacerbate things.

Like I said, things get better and when they do, questions like why we're here and what our purpose is become conundrums rather than problem. If you find something that gives you comfort, whatever it is, go for it.

Unless it's mutilating animals or kiddy fiddling or something. That shit's just wrong Big Grin
