Are you/do you have a sense of freedom without these things and dont know how to identify this freedom; or, do you feel you are missing something these things cant fulfill?

it feels like I'm missing something. I feel like I've missed my chance at growing spiritually since I have fought against spiritual experiences

Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
I think life itself is a "spiritual" experience without having to endure a land of make believe affecting the genuineness of the experience.

What spiritual experiences have you faught against if you dont mind my asking?
Each persons definition of spiritual experiences are different.
Mine is embedded in art mediums; they are my passion.
Some the earth. Some actual things these can touch like plants and rocks etc. Many definitions...
so you have to define it by your own experiences and what they have in common. We cant define it for you (I can only give my opinion), but have you thought about checking out your experiences?
Maybe spirituality is defined different than what you are accostumed to.
There is no way for anyone else to answer this without a lot of input from you.
Are those three activities and perceptions representative of what interested you in religion before?

Those things you listed are all called magical thinking. They aren't a solid base for anything so I guess you're moving in the right direction anyways.

Religion is no good without Christ. Men need Christ, not religion. If you have Christ, your religion will be the joy of God's salvation, which though it wanes at times, will never leave you, because God will never leave you, if you are His.
