Wow that is a lot to take on without having anyone to talk to. I think you should privately seek out a counselor who is not LDS. Have the opportunity to unburden your soul in a confidential environment. Just talking about it will help you feel not so crazy.
Also there are several boards for people who either slightly believe, don't believe but participate, or are stuck in the church due to family obligations. NEWORDERMORMON comes to mind. They might help you find some comfort in your current aloneness.

Hopefully you are close to the end of 4 years as a bishop because usually they release you. If not just take some time and get some help until you can find a path out of this double bind the church has placed you in.
