>>40502722 (OP)>Are you religious?im gonna have my way with oversharing cause i don't often get to trauma dump
i used to be super religious when i was little i guess till 11 - 13. well ive got to preface that ive known since i was 8 or something. so i used to pray like if i ask enough things would be fixed. like i remember falling asleep in the prayer room hoping i would wake up "fixed", didn't happen.
so at 14 i turned to occult stuff thinking, if the god is not helping me i gotta help myself and after learning about it and studying it for couple of years i came to the understanding that that too doesn't look like it's gonna fix things.
by 17 i was more of a nihilist like what even is the point in anything. up to this point i was in denial and i started therapy with anti depressants and stuff at 19 where i came into terms with reality. wanted to transition but family isn't super accepting(my dad and his "honor") so had to start to repress.
after that i got into this trad masc presentation, (well i always tried to present masc cause of insecurities before 21 and kinda defeatist acceptance after 21) and found myself going back to religion for a sense of tribalism wanting to belong somewhere
kinda recently i caught myself glorifying the religion even though i don't believe in god and had to have a reality check to ground myself again cause it was really getting out of hands, like judging people based on their names and stuff like almost full on racist stuff.
and im trying to deprogram myself at the moment. so i guess i could say im not religious.
tldr; not religious, i don't believe in god and if he did exist i don't trust god.
so agnostic maybe ?
