No, you haven't. I know many christians who don't "practice" and yet they consider themselves believers. Most of them admit to having had doubts as well - because only particularly stupid people don't have them. That's not atheism - just a very convenient form of religion. Alternatively - you can be working as priest and be an actual atheist.
If you don't believe in gods - you're an atheist. There's no "trying".
