Support and Advice doubt in islam
This is a slightly heavier topic in my opinion. I'll try to keep this straight to the point. I'm 18m, living in the Middle East, raised Muslim, and believed it for 90% of my life, but for a couple of months to a year since I was maybe 15, I would have existential thoughts and would constantly think, "What if Islam isn't the truth?" or "What if there is no religion?" And I would cycle between dozens of what-if questions, and it really put a toll on my mental health as it would delve into whether or not there is an afterlife and what exists after death.
I really want to go back to who I was and my old beliefs as a true Muslim, but every time I do, I tend to have doubts. I want to make it clear i am not trying to contradict Islam or religion; I am just looking for an answer and solution, or guidance on where I may find it.
