What Is My Purpose?

For So long, I have grown up in a strict Irish Catholic Family, yet after about 10 I suddenly grew out of favour of these teachings, which I was fine about until now... I have been dealing with mental health issues lately, and it has made me long for recognition, Purity and Peace. I've tried too hard, I have tried to delude myself into believing there is a God, I hope so bad there is. My purpose isn't to 'Find God' but to find out why I'm here, I just wan't clarity. I wan't someone to hold me spiritually and answer all my questions, Why Does religion divide? Why is religion so hateful? Why are not every type of Man accepted...? Whether Gay or Straight or anything like that... Why Am I here? I'm at the point in my life where I'm questioning my very own reason, Just someone give me advice Smile Thank You Smile

@ToHaveAndNotToHold20,
Your purpose (whether you give it a religious spin or not is not the point) here is the same as everyone else's.

It's to be kind.

Empathy and Kindness go a long way.

@emmett grogan,
I feel that I'm em pathetically disconnected, I feel like in the past I never knew or considering anybody else's feelings due to not understanding or considering my own...

@ToHaveAndNotToHold20,
Have you talked to your doctor? I'm serious - I am not a doctor and I am not trying to diagnose you at all, but a disconnect like that can sometimes be a marker of Asperger's. And if it isn't, then there's no harm in talking to your MD.

Universal Unitarian church also ponders such questions.

@jespah,
Well, I have BPD... I just always have had a different childhood than my cousins, They were like siblings to me... Every-time they visited my Grandmother from England (To Northern Ireland were we lived) I always seemed to be to 'Shocking' one, For Some reason I never quite understood how to act as society tells me... Partly why I disconnected from God...

@ToHaveAndNotToHold20,
Its time to sit down and reconnect to your feelings. As Jessup suggested, it might be a medical condition, see your physician or spiritual leader or a therapist.

Me neither. I decided the problem was society, not God.
Maybe you should reconnect.
