I ask this because I know that there are many theists who tend to think about God a lot - i.e. God is constantly in their minds - even while doing activities like eating, working, listening to music, walking, sitting, while learning something, before going to sleep, or whatever that they are doing. I am like that myself as well. Most of the time you can't tell if they are actually thinking about God because they look so busy doing something else, but they are. Sometimes they might even be praising or thanking God while remembering Him, but it's not noticeable to any one else around them because, basically, this is something passive and internal.
What about you guys, then? I know that as atheists none of you believe in God, but how often or when do you think about His non-existence?
Rarely. Mainly when I come on here in fact.
In normal life, it just doesn't cross my mind at all unless someone mentions religion and triggers it.
You are currently experiencing a lucky and very brief window of awareness, sandwiched in between two periods of timeless and utter nothingness. So why not make the most of it, and stop wasting your life away trying to convince other people that there is something else? The reality is obvious.
