Ok. I get depression. I get atheism. I think it is interesting that you made a thread that linked the two. Do you feel like you have some sort of hole in you? Does that question make sense?
I ask this because this is a feeling that I had. And I am wondering because I used to always say that I was having a crisis of faith although I had no faith and had never had faith but for some reason something in me was convinced that the deep sense of longing I had was more than simple sadness.
