Man, I could have written every word of this myself. At some point I found this book and it was somewhat helpful. Not earth shattering, but still illuminating. It helped me put into words and really pinpoint some of lasting effects on my mental and emotional health. Mostly it was comforting to read that what I was experiencing was, in many ways, a totally predictable reaction to that kind of environment.
Just realized I'm a little over ten years out now, too. I think I've come to find a comfort in the "doubt." I've managed to build something of a new framework -- just without religion. For me it's not about right and wrong...it's about our nature as social creatures. There are things that build up those social connections, and things that break them. That we all have an ever-evolving set of standards that help us live with each other. That being together is our animal nature, and without that we're bound to feel miserable.
IDK, just thinking out loud here. You're not alone though.
I've tried being direct, but then I get banned for forums for advertising which is crazy since what I've written adds to the discussion in the forums in a very significant way, IMHO. You'll find all my sourcing in the book, but here's one important one -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josephus
