@mrbojangles25: Yes, my fasting is done for religious reasons (I'm a christian.) Fasting is mentioned in the Bible several times, so I like doing it. Even Jesus fasted. You're recollection is correct; I have a mental handicap called schizophrenia and it prevents me from having a job or a relationship/marriage. It's not that I refuse to work or refuse to date, I'm just not healthy enough to handle those responsibilities. Hopefully some day I will get to do both of those things. I don't want to have to live a celibate lifestyle that relies on disability benefits.
However, I do help pay my family's bills. Myself, my dad, mom, sister and brother all contribute. We each pay part of it. I have to, because the Bible says that a man who does not provide for his family is worse than an unbeliever. I help my family make ends meet.
