I have always had a relatively strong faith. I am Catholic, was brought up with the faith, and I really knew nothing else. While I rarely go to mass, I always felt a strong personal faith, prayed regularly, but kept it private, I don't see it as anyone's business, and my husband has no belief. I don't know why but recently I feel like I just don't believe in anything anymore, and I feel so down about it. My dh doesn't get it, and thinks believing in God or heaven etc is daft. But it is not his influence that has changed things, we rarely discuss, and he has always respected my faith. I have always felt lucky to have faith, as a comfort. Maybe I have just been living blindly, and now that I stop to think, I suspect there is nothing. All of my friends either believe or don't, so there is no in-between person I can speak to. I am about to start my ds at a faith school, and maybe that has triggered feelings. I know that is a whole other debate about faith schools.
Anyhow, has anyone experienced this loss of faith and do you have any advice as i am finding it very upsetting, in a "what is the point" way. Thank you
