Sending you a lot of love š The best I can say is that we all do stupid, terrifying, sometimes harmful things in our life, espically when weāre young. You shouldnāt have to suffer forever because of that! You forgiving yourself doesnāt hurt anyone and can free you from your suffering. I know itās hard and it probably feels like you need to suffer from guilt to make it right but pain never heals harm

Similar things have happened to me when I got caught up in a porn addiction around that same age. It began to surface through most of high school which was most likely used as a coping mechanism to get away from anything bad I was feeling or anything traumatic. I guess practicing self forgiveness is something we can all use for ourselves. It also helps to note that we were all very young once and we all make mistakes and we can get better as we evolve. It's really easy to be hard on yourself even if you don't deserve to be.

When is a mistake too big to forgive. I looked at content that I really shouldnāt have (š½)but I didnāt understand it was wrong at that time and with no parents supervision online . It happened in my teen like 14/15 and Iām 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 didnāt know how disgusting it is and if did I wouldāve never done it . And it was worth cancelling her . But I did too so .

when I was 15 soon to turn 16, I met this girl in a IG group chat made by our mutual friends. We started talking and eventually we started flirting and talking sexual towards each other, though eventually we stopped talking because she was being really weird. A couple months later In July of 2024 my friend found out that she was actually 13 and that she lied to me about her age. It's been 10 months since l've found out and I still feel so disgusted in myself. I had my suspicions at the time but I let them go since she said she was 16 turning 17. I was completely oblivious trusting someone I only knew online especially since i've never seen their face either. i'm struggling on what to do since i've been suffering with POCD since I was 15. Till this day I still feel weird and disgusted in myself because of that. But it feels ironic since i'm sexualizing someone that's 2 years younger than me and I waited to confirm she was around my age range to sexualize her. I feel so weird and guilty about it idk what to do
