I really feel uncomfortable going into religious topics, but your post reminded me of what happened to me about seven years ago. It was after my last inpatient "visit" when my mom told me I should try and think of religion, but not in a condescending way. She knew I didn't really belive in god, but she thought maybe I should figure something out. I figured why not. I looked into the various religions and eventually became a buddhist.
It has changed my life for the better, but that doesn't mean you should neglect treatment of meds and therapy. I still do both, but it helped me find peace in my life.
