Here's the thing: atheism is not a belief system. It is not supposed to be attractive and it is not there to help you make sense of your emotions. Atheism is simply the lack of belief in any god or supreme being. That's it. You are free to handle your emotions as you wish.
I think people see atheism as something that was thought up to compete with religion. This is not true. There is no campaign to sell atheism like religion sells itself. Atheists are free to use scientific, humanistic or zen explanations for emotions.. whatever. There is no book on it because there doesn't need to be.
