you have to remember you were a child, people make mistakes, and a lot of us aren’t proud of many things we have done during that age. maybe you could talk to a therapist about it, i know it’s scary, but it could potentially help.

You're not that person anymore. You're a different person now and you're a better person now. 💜 Please be kind to yourself and remember we all make mistakes. 💜

I had this same predicament this past year, I used dating apps and would send a lot of nudes to people, especially old men. But I did say some gross stuff to people and I hate it, I’m scared maybe some one was underage, I would always ask and I would really only message older people, but I’m scared that someone lied or something. I have done A LOT of shameful things in my life, I’ve confessed to my mom too and she says I’m not a monster, I agree with everyone here, you were a kid, you know better now and feel remorse, I’m 19 too, and the stuff I’ve done was from January to September, I’m never using dating apps again, I hope you feel better, I really don’t think you’re a bad person, you were just a kid, just let the past go, I hope you stay safe and wish the best between you and you’re gf!

Thank you so much. How do you deal with the thoughts that maybe someone has posted videos of you doing these things on the internet or something. And the thoughts of people u know seeing those things?

@Helllloo I read other peoples experiences. Especially Celebrities, look how many of their nudes have been leaked, and their still acting and nothing bad has happened to them. I had one person actually threaten to leak mine, they turned out to be a fake profile. It’s just living knowing it sucks, but it’s not the worst, it’s happened to a lot of people who are still living good lives and being happy. Chris Evans accidentally posted his nude and everyone just thought it was funny and moved on. He’s still going to play Buzz Lightyear next year lol, it’s okay, just leave it in the past. Just laugh it off and spend time with your gf, and know that this most definitely doesn’t make you unworthy of having her in your life, you’ll be okay!

@OCDHaver I can’t thank you enough. One thing more is how do I deal with the feeling that I’m living a lie if I don’t tell people about all this. Espesialy my gf and my parents. Should I tell them?

@Helllloo You don’t have to tell everyone, but if you think it might help you feel better you could, just make sure you trust them and that they’ll hear you out. I told my mom, and she wasn’t really happy about it lol, but she told me it is what it is and that it’s not that bad. My friends laughed and made a couple of jokes, but they said I shouldn’t worry about it. If I ever had a gf and she told me this exact thing, I most definitely wouldn’t hate her, I would tell her what I told you. Like you said, you were 15-17, and you haven’t done this in two years, before you started dating her, you’re okay, you’ll be surprised how many secrets people hide, we’ve all done things we’re not proud of, and your situation definitely isn’t the worst, not even close. But be careful, confessing is also a compulsion and could make you feel worse in the long run, but if you feel it best to tell your parents and gf, you should

Okay so I'm young. A bit young than u might Imagine. Me and my boyfriend where bored and I searched up gay porn js as a joke on google. It was completely blurred. And we where js talking about our truma, and personal stuff while literally just looking at the titles. And I saw a title. A title that has trumstixed me before (I saw the actual video before involving a minor. ) and I clicked on it, still heavily blurred to show my boyfriend the title. And i said baby this really effected me this video. And then I looked below it, same video, blurred. Different title. And I clicked on it to stupidly read the other title. And it FUCKING UNBLURRED. and I SCREAMED saying to my boyfriend if he saw it. And he said no he looked away. And he was so unfazed. And I asked chat gpt about it and it said what I done was NOT okay. Because I looked at child stuff on purpose? My heart has just SANK. self harm urges are back. INTENSE confession compulsions to my mum are back. What do I do. Please someone help.

18+ When I was in high school (16 or 17), I hung out with the popular kids of school... they send me this popular girl (who was in our school) explicit photo on snap because I was curious to see it... after I turned 19, I suddenly remembered my friends sent the photo and asked them to delete it off of the chat, as I didn't want to be in possession of any form of illegal material... Fast forward to later... my friend had broken up with his ex and wanted to send us explicit pics of her... curious at the time, I asked to see it and he sent the group (including me) some pictures... Now that Im 24, I remember him sending these pics and asked him to take down the pics in our snapchat convo... I didnt want any pics of their ex because this was harmful content... my friend, (the one who sent our friend group explicit vids and pics of his ex) told me that there was a one month period between him and her when they were in a relationship where he was 18 and she was 17 )... they were together for 1-2 years... and they were explicit throughout their whole relationship ... including the one month period... so i was getting extremely anxious and triggered about him sending me potentially illegal stuff... I asked him several times over the course of three days after he casually admitted he had a 1 month age period with her, (he was 18 and she was 17 during that one month) if she was over 18 when he made those videos, and he kept giving me answers like "Yes" And "It was a month after she turned 18..." He even got frustrated on the second day of me asking and said "Dude, this is the 10th time you've asked me and yes she was." On the third day I asked him, he said "yeah" when i said his previous comments of "a month after she turned 18, right?" back to him, and he even added that "we started getting more explicitly active around this time." He also told me "Even if she was under the age of 18, you wouldn't be in trouble because you were sent it." Yesterday, I called him again and apologized for asking so much... to which he responded... "I was hoping you'd realize this has been excessive..." But then I asked him if she really was 18 in those videos or not... he got frustrated and said... "Dude, you cant keep apologizing over and over, before asking me again..." Still, I asked him to confirm it for me one last time, to which he replied... "She was 18 in those videos..." I keep getting anxious because I dont know if he's lying or not and its triggering me really bad, not to mention feeling guilty about the harm I had caused... I genuinely feel so guilty and awful about this... I hurt people... and I cant sleep at night knowing I did... People say you make mistakes when you were a teen... these were some of my mistakes... I genuinely feel horrible and I cant sleep at night knowing the guilt of my actions are still there... I genuinely feel awful... I hope people dont hate me after reading this... i hope you dont block me... you've all been so genuinely kind and encouraging to me... and I dont want to lose someone who cares about me on here...
