I know that some are religious here. I myself do not identify with any certain religion. But am somewhat hopeful in the faith that god exists, and we all aren't just some terribly gone wrong experiment developed in test tubes somewhere.

I am curious if peoples faith has been tested to the point of giving up in faith as I did at one time. I know that for many years I completely lost all hope and faith and it took a lot for me to come around again in my thinking. In all honesty I hated him for giving me a faulty brain and body.

How has being bipolar affected your faith? There are some that might say that they actually hear god who are bipolar in their head during both high and low periods of bipolar. Faith can be an immense help when dealing with the highs and lows of being bipolar for some. Much like a coping mechanism.
