The disciples themselves doubted Jesus. He was with them in person and they still doubted. Even when Jesus came back, Thomas doubted and said that unless he put his finger in the holes in his hands he would not believe and Jesus proved that it was him. I'm not saying Jesus is going to come and show himself. That's what makes us so cool. That even though we have never seen him, we still believe in his existence. That's what faith is for. Have faith that he exists. I highly recommend reading the book of John. At least one chapter.

If you're afraid of becoming atheist, it sounds like you still have a pretty good connection to your spirituality and God! Idk if it'll help you, but you can try journaling your fears of becoming an atheist, writing lists of all the good things God has done for you, rereading your favorite Bible verses, and just praying and pouring your heart out to God. I find that taking a long shower and crying my eyes out while praying helps a lot. There were many biblical figures who doubted God and questioned Him, but their trust in Him was restored. Idk if this was helpful or not but ... crying/praying and writing help me when I worry about my spiritual life.

This could potentially just be another form of obsession.

Religious OCD
Hey everyone, I need help. I woke up just now with the worst thoughts ever. Thoughts that GOD leaving me, thoughts that I like the bad guy, and thoughts that are worse than anything that I have ever thought of before. I realize that I am asking for reassurance, but I am so scared that I mean these thoughts and I just want GOD to keep me and my family safe and know that I don’t mean these thoughts… please help

Anyone religious on here?
im scared. I keep compulsively praying for bad things or death on the people I love. I don’t understand why. It doesn’t make anything better. I’m scared that these prayers count. I seal them as I do with most of my prayers in Jesus name and with a double amen. I’m scared God will want to teach me a lesson and make something come true. I’m scared I mean these prayers, I’m petrified. If something happened, I wouldn’t be able to live with myself :( I don’t know where to go from here

Feeling a loss of faith and anxiety
I’m Christian, and I suddenly had a loss of faith. I’m praying constantly and as anxious and scared that God hasn’t chosen me for this religion, even though I believe in it whole heartedly. My brain is telling me these things, and saying how I would be fit for Islam or something else, even though I am perfectly happy being a Christian. I keep getting intrusive thoughts and feelings about not believing in my religion, and whenever I confess how I do believe, my brain tells me I’m lying or I feel otherwise. It makes me feel guilty and abandoned and alone. I still read my Bible and pray CONSTANTLY. Please help (sorry if this is hard to understand I am ranting)
