I just got done saying that for many years I did not believe a deity existed.
Soooooooo, if i didn't believe there was a deity at one time, I guess you could say that I "envisioned" that one did not exist.
I simply came to the conclusion that my previous opinion was incorrect.

I both read and understood it. You said:
"By the time I reached my twenties and was out on my own, I had come to the belief that there was no God. It was the worst, most unsettling period of my life."
It sounds to me like you struggled to envision a world without a deity. Or, as a minimum, a world without a deity caused you a lot of consternation. Something was missing in your life that you later found with your belief?
I do not mean to put words in your mouth, but that was my interpretation. I'm glad you found what you were looking for.
