absolutely, my beliefs make my life less lonely.
On the other hand, my beliefs seem to have intensified my emotions. I think about the Big Issues now--life,death, meaning, values, God, etc.--that really didn't bother me when I was younger. Since I've replaced a lot of the secular values I was taught in therapy at an early age with more traditionally Christian ones, I feel things--shame, guilt, pain, anger--that before I could think away with rationalizations and psycho-babble fluff.
