I can somewhat relate to what you're saying. I have schizophrenia and bipolar type 1 disorder. I miss the comfort of religion. I'm a bit of a nihilist now. More of an existentialist though. In other words, I believe life has no objective meaning, and people must give themselves meaning. Maybe that will help. Try to find what you want your meaning of life to be. Don't let some religious leader tell you your purpose. Honestly, it's kind of liberating to pick your meaning.
