Is it wrong to allow myself to doubt?

Recently I prayed and asked God to deepen my shallow faith. Soon after, I began experiencing waves of doubt. I've heard that doubts are kind of growing pains associated with deeper faith, but I'm concerned that if I really take these doubts head on that I won't arrive at the conclusion other Christians have arrived at. My question is this - should I push the doubts away and make myself believe in Christ, or should I hear these doubts out in hopes that I'll come out on the other side with a new, stronger faith?
