Honestly I’m still trying to figure out which one I feel is right for me. I know this sounds stupid but I have to do some more research to figure out which one is right for me.

Cool. Personally I'm a member of the Temple. Less actual belief in The Devil as a deity and more usjng symbolism to empower self worth, and rules lawering conservatives trying to insert religion into politics

I’m also against religion being mixed into politics. I support women’s reproductive rights too. (I’m a woman) I do enjoy indulging myself in things I enjoy but I take care of my kids & help my wife with stuff first whenever she needs help with something. My wife is the one who works while I stay at home with the kids. Unfortunately I suffer from schizophrenia, severe depression, a severe anxiety disorder & PTSD. I had a horrifically abusive Bible beating mother growing up. Tbh, I’ve attempted suicide 9 times in my life. I’ve been leaning more towards joining the TST but I’m not sure if they’ll accept me since I’m mentally ill.

Mental illness won't preclude you from joining, as far as I know. For my partner and I it was literally as simple as registering on their website for the local chapter

Would you consider an introverted & weird person a friend? I was both the weird kid & the quiet kid in school & I didn’t really grow out of that, the weirdness just sort of evolved. I’m schizophrenic so it’s not unbelievable that I’m weird but I’m usually quiet unless I’m completely comfortable with who I’m around. I may be antisocial (my abusive mother kept me isolated as much as she could) but I do want friends. Unfortunately social interaction is mentally & emotionally draining for me. I’m terrible at picking up on social cues nor do I understand them. I’m basically a lost cause so I don’t try to make friends because I wouldn’t want to waste their time. The fact that I have a wife (same sex couple) is shocking. I don’t know what she sees in me.
