Pray and make dua, seek refuge in Allah from Shaytan.
He is Allah, other than whom there is no deity, the Sovereign, the Pure, the Perfection, the Bestower of Faith, the Overseer, the Exalted in Might, the Compeller, the Superior. Exalted is Allah above whatever they associate with Him [59:23]
Get in touch with a reliable, knowledgeable `Aalim in your locality, if you can. Whatever questions/doubts you have, he will answer, In Shaa Allaah.
Also, recite Ta`awwudh (A`oodhu Billaahi Minash Shaytaanir Rajeem) ten times in the morning and ten times in the evening, every day. Also, increase your recitation of the Qur'aan, and read the meaning as well. Increase in Dhikr and Istighfaar. After every Salaah, make the following Du`aa: "Rabbanaa Laa Tuzigh Quloobanaa Ba`da idh Hadaytanaa wa-hab lanaa Milladunka Rahmah, Innaka Antal Wahhaab." (O our Rabb! Let not our hearts go astray after You have guided us, and grant us Rahmah (Mercy) from Yourself. Truly, you are the Bestower.)

Yeah, I suffer from doubts, too. What helps me is reading a commentary of the Qur'an. Yusuf Ali's commentary has helped me sooo many times. Poetry also helps me because it reminds me of how beautiful God is. Rumi wrote a lot of good poetry. Aside from that, do some dhikr.
I go back to the beginning: what introduced me to Islam in the first place. One of the ways I learned about Islam was actually by watching children's shows on it . . . they may be simple, but sometimes a simple reminder of truths is all we need to get us back on the right path. Stories of the Prophets by Yusuf Estes is one of my favorites to turn to when I am feeling down about my faith. The shows are all on Youtube.
