The link is to my story of my teenage years - which has a fair number of similarities to yours - which may or may not help.... I'm really pleased you've found your way here - I only hope we can be the people around you that you need and which I never really had at your age. Life often is hard work for us BLers, and if you get the impression that we've got it completely sorted, it probably means that the mask is on a bit firmly. But for me this board is a major part of what keeps me going. I'm disappointed that you've got the Christians around you to the stage where they've told you to stop asking questions - I hope you will ask those questions here. I find that heavy questions can provide a means for sharing what is real, but less challenging than talking about it directly. But the very fact that you're continuing to nag at the issue of Christianity is itself really positive - I see it as a sign that God is at work in your life. So be encouraged; He really does love us, though it's hard to believe at times. I think you'll find an anonymous email address useful - you can ask us things that you don't want to share on the board. Also we can tell you some of the past threads that may cover issues. Most of us seem to use goplay.com - give it a try? Hope to hear from you again soon, by whatever means!! |
