But apart from 'feeling down' what are your problems?

I am twice your age and its a good day when nothing aches.

Call a suicide hotline. Coming to an internet forum for atheists isn't going to help.

well said, atheism just offers nihilism, no meaning, no purpose.

This is not the time or place for sniping, asshole. This person is crying out for help and it would be irresponsible for a non-professional to offer advice beyond the suggestion to seek real world help.

Asshole.

No gods = nihilism? Sounds like some faulty logic there.

If you want help in understanding God, then go see a pastor. From what you have described, that does seem like the best answer. Also..don't listen to your grandmother. I think her statements might be part of the reason you are in a pickle.

Paul's right, you are an opportunistic asshole.

Fuck you. All you offer is some bullshit lies you force onto the vulnerable you sick fuck.

@OP You certainly still sound like a theist to me. I think you have just been unfortunate. Things can always change. their is no god that is cursing you no matter how much it seems that way. Hope things get better for you.

I been in therapy and medications since 16!! I'm 23 now...noothings helping even they change my meds...

I'm not bipolar myself; I am unipolar. I have, just like you, been in therapy and on medications since I was sixteen. I'm 32 now, and only recently, within the last 2-3 years, did I finally gain enough control over my depression so that the majority of the time I am not depressed. It can take long periods of time to mature enough and learn enough to truly control mental illness.

The worst part can be when you start showing a little progress, and then life kicks you in the face leaving you no better off than when you started. I suggest doing some reading about how to control you emotions, and above all, never feel as if there is no way out. There always is, and hope that things will change is your most powerful weapon.

(P.S. Worrying about why god would do this to you isn't going to help the matter. It just distracts you from what you should be concentrating on. Focus on getting better, then deal with the god issue.)

Yes, mental illness takes time to work through. There is no miracle cure.

Tone it down in this thread please, guys. Thanks.

Atheism provides the opportunity to create your own meaning. Don't be an idiot.




@OP: You need to call your therapist and let him know it's time to change your meds again.
