Hi Michael,
Welcome to babble. I agree with everyone else, seeing a psychiatrist, and soon...so you can get some relief.
I also agree about going to therapy - a therapist can help you work on your crisis of faith....they won't judge, and if they're good they won't express a bias. I had the same thing happen when both of my parents died w/in 8 months of each other, and I had post partum depression at the same time. A good therapist is worth their weight in gold.
Aside from therapy, if you decide to see a someone about faith, maybe you could find someone who wouldn't present a bias, someone well versed in all the various faiths and cultures - to see faith from a complete historical basis? Someone who can help you with your crisis, and not try to make you feel pressured one way or another.
I hope you can get to a good psychiatrist very soon, and if you feel yourself losing touch before you can get in, maybe go to the emergency room to get some meds to get you through....or go see your general practitioner to give you something to get you through.
