Does anyone else here deal with the compulsion to confess? I feel like if people knew my mistakes they would view me very differently and not want to be associated with me. OCD is literally ruining every aspect of my life, I got introduced to my college roommate this morning and all I could think is “ If she knew what you did she would hate you” I just feel so guilty all the time, it makes me not want to live

I’ve confessed to 5 people and some have had a not so positive reaction. I know how you feel.

I’ve only told my mom and boyfriend who didn’t have a good reaction either so I know how that feels, that’s part of the reason why I’m so afraid of keeping it to myself

I did. But it doesn’t do a damn thing but make things worse. You don’t need to tell people your business.

Agreed

I agree with you but for some reason my mind is screaming at me to tell people

Remember you have an illness,you never asked for or wanted this,try to have self compassion 🤗
