How can I return to religion after being an atheist for the most of my life ?

I was raised as a Muslim but intuitively I believed none of this is true, I was never serious about it ever. At the age of 13 I went down the rabbit hole of atheism and ended up becoming one. At this point even if god was to manifest himself in front of me, I still wouldn't believe in religion.

I've always been frustrated with my life, I was bullied for being weak and I've always been unhealthy. I choose none of this, and on top of that I started reading Schopenhauer and other pessimistic philosophers. I would infact consider myself a Pessimist.

Lately this nihilistic and hedonistic outlook of life is troubling me, I spend most of the time gooning and not studying. Things haven't been going good with family, I wanna leave them asap but to do that I've to get my shit together and start studying.

I think returning back to religion is the only way to do so, how do I delude myself to be a believer again ?

Getting a job is probably the best thing, unironically. It gives your life structure. I work at a fast food place, it's not the best pay nor the best conditions but it does distract me from my inceldom.
Can't do that
 
Why is that? Are you still in school?
I've to study for an examination to get into a college, I've already wasted a lot of time and can't do anymore.
 
Im not sure if its smart to get into religion if you dont believe any of it.

Despite many peoples negative views on religion, as someone who is agnostic I believe its good cope for a lot since it can give you a sense of order and community

don't be hedonistic, be nihlistic and pessimistic but don't be hedonistic. hedonism will kill you.
don't believe in an religion, because religions are opium and drugs people use to delude themselves with to avoid accepting the harsh realities of life.
 
You can stop being an atheist being by not believing the Universe came from nothing
 
I wont make it too complicated
-Something cant come from nothing
-Order and meaning cant come from some unconscious force
-Everything is actually beautiful and life is good
-We will all die one day and death is forever
-Atheists are 99% of them either gay or retarded
This is it for me. I buy it.
 
In a similar situation and it’s been ongoing for years. Reviving faith can give you motivation but keep in mind LDARing is one of the worst sins (I am completely pitiful)
 
You don't religion is bullshit , but you can roleplay as a religious person
 
I'm sure that the universe has a creator.
 
Idk man, read theology, do some research on whatever interests you then come to your own conclusion. But be warned there are some biased sources out there from either religious sides.

If you wanna read about christian theology I would suggest reading sources from actual christians and see if they can defend their faith and have plausible explanations for whatever that it is you seek to answer. Same thing for muslims, buddhists, etc.

Also, do not let your personal grudges and past experiences cloud your judgement. If you had a terrible past with the followers of a religion, always make the distinction between a follower and what the religion actually teaches. I have met many self proclaimed christians that were not really behaving like one. Always judge a faith by its teachings and not its followers.
