Guilt related to OCD?
I reached out to one my older cousins wife she has been in family for long time so she watched me grow up, and she talks to my mom as well. I basically told her about my current situation with my siblings and their criticism toward me since healing in therapy and how my mom doesn’t defend me. I didn’t at all gossip about my family or try to make them look like bad people only wanted advice on how to cope and I feel like I could trust her because she’s level headed and very spiritual and so am I. So we had a short convo and she gave me some good advice and also checked back in with me. That was last weekend and I’ve been worried and feel guilt that it was bad or wrong to do that but I couldn’t talk to my mom about it because she was part of it, plus I just wanted outside perspective. And now I feel the urge to confess but I don’t feel I did anything wrong nor do I wanna tell my mom that I had private convo with her bc it’s my business as an adult. Sometimes idk how to cope with the urgency to confess and usually end up confessing but I genuinely don’t want to bc I don’t feel what I did was bad, everyone needs someone to talk to plus I wasn’t being gossipy about it at all.
