I don't want to give you any reassurance because from my experience, it only helps temporarily. In my opinion the only way to get over these obsessions/worries over past events is to stop feeling the need to get answers. I know it feels irresponsible, and even scary, but OCD tends to blow things out of proportion, and sometimes all you can say is: maybe, maybe not. Also, don't take what I say as a fact, this is just what I've found to help. Don't lose hope :)

Thank you I appreciate it. It’s the guilt, it just bothers me so much because it keeps trying to tell me the mistake I made makes me a terrible person and that I deserve to be terribly punished and it’s so scary I don’t know if it’s true or if OCD is just saying that

@Just Breathe ❤️ I completely understand. Have you tried reaching out for help from an OCD specialist?

When is a mistake too big to forgive. I looked at content that I really shouldn’t have (🌽)but I didn’t understand it was wrong at that time and with no parents supervision online . It happened in my teen like 14/15 and I’m so guilty. What makes it worse is that a small artist did something really similar and got cancelled and called disgusting . It is disgusting but I truly didn’t know how disgusting it is and if did I would’ve never done it . And it was worth cancelling her . But I did too so .

Hate myself for who I used to be. I used to sleep around. I drove drunk a couple times. I was careless. I’m so ashamed because it’s not who I am and especially not who I am now. I did it because I was lonely. And now I suffer not knowing if I hit or killed or hurt someone. This pain is just draining.

My real-events are terrible. I'm plagued daily by multiple awful things I did as a child / teenager (please don't downplay it.) I've grown into a better person, but the memories won't let me see any progress. It feels as if my insides are dying from grief and shame. How do you go day to day not picturing yourself as a monster?
