Confessional OCD
My OCD gives me the need to confess things. It’s really hard and exhausting. How do you combat this, anyone else had this problem?

Yes I think that is moral scrupulosity. I’m always second guessing what I say and what I do! Some days are ok but some are exhausting! They say to just sit with the compulsion and not do anything about it till it passes but I find it hard, but not impossible…

False memory and need to confess
I’m having the need to confess that I was unfaithful to my girlfriend (even though I was not) because I drank too much Saturday night and don’t remember every single second from my evening. My OCD immediately goes to that I cheated on my girlfriend and I need to confess my sins. I know it’s only OCD, but the thoughts are extremely strong. Any suggestions? Thank you, community.

Confession need
I just got off my session today and after having a confession to my husband last night with a compulsion, he obviously is going to have more questions. My therapist says not to confess because I am growing my OCD . However, this is really OCD and is about something that actually happened. My husband said, that it sounds like I have someone in my life who is justifying withholding information or lying to him. Of course when I have my obsession compulsions, he makes sense. Can somebody help explain this to me? How is my husband not right or is he?
