First of all, this was refreshingly honest to read.
2nd, seriously, get better friends cause i think that's your problem.
Try to find at least one friend who will understand you, an gradually ease being an atheist into the friendship but don't make that the main focus of your friendship.
You seem very religiously oppressed and it looks like everyone around you doesn't feel that way, and i understand that, that's how i felt my whole life cause i was raised in a very religious environment as well.
im the only agnostic in my family, i don't expect them to understand me, they never did but ive always had good friends that understand me and like me for who i really am.
idk if you know who Daniel johnston is but he has song called 'Go' and in the lyrics he says
"Understand that to be understood is to be free"
i think beyond finding other atheist all you simply want is to be understood.
And you are, reading this reminded me of how i felt when i was younger.
