i usually just visit our pastor or my parents and see what he/they recommend(s). sometimes he/they points out certain scriptures and it helps but i prefer to talk to someone face to face before turning to anything else.

I just go to the same verse each time. :-)

I don't remember what it is, but I have it highlighted.

I used to do that, its actually part of the reason why I'm no longer a Christian.

It makes me feel worse, actually. I normally pray my feelings outloud.

i like to, it gives me comfort to know that God's words were writon such a long time ago, and they still mean so much and give us so much support now. Read them, live them, and they will shed light on your path

I actually don't find religious stories very comforting when I'm upset.

No, but I do speak to God sometimes. Or listen to Skillet, or cuddle with my stuffed fox.
