How do I cope with losing my faith?
Identity & Self-Worth
Faith deconstruction is a painful but often necessary process; allow yourself to grieve while exploring what meaning and values still resonate with you.
Losing faith and mental health can feel like losing your entire personal identity and worldview. It's normal to grieve this loss deeply, as faith often provides community, life purpose, and answers to life's big questions. Allow yourself to feel sad, angry, or confused without rushing to replace what you've lost. Many people find meaningful life in new philosophies, communities, or spiritual practices that align better with their evolved understanding. This process takes time, and it's okay to sit in the uncertainty while you figure out what comes next.
