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

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

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.

Recently I (16m)feel hopeless I feel so sick and sad idk what to do I feel lost I feel like a monster everything has been hell, and I don’t know how to move on from the never ending guilt . I did awful things when I started high school, thinking being sexual was the way to connect.(idk if all of this was because when I was 8 I was shown explicit content by my older brother) I crossed boundaries, overshared, and kept flirting with friends and making sexual jokes, even after they said no (all over text). One friend stopped talking to me and can’t even look at me now. I feel like a monster. Why shouldn’t I be locked up? If I got therapy, I feel like I’d be sent jail. Idk if I can move on. Then there were these 2 guys who were older than me one was 16 one was 17. The 16 yr old was introduced to me by my online friend who is my best friend and I begged the 16 yr old for pics (idk how it started but after my friends ex randomly messaged me and sent me pictures and then blocked me right after I think I became addicted to chasing that high) the 16 yr old eventually sent me a pic but it was real and I stopped bugging him on it after that but i feel so bad I did that but my friend tells me not to feel bad cause the guy was weird but I still feel bad. Then the 17 yr old I did the same thing with him but went too far when I tried getting pics from him by using my best friends ass pics she sent me (she was 15) I don’t think I grasped how wrong this was but that’s not an excuse she eventually found it when I told her after she tried getting pics from the guy herself to try and help me and the guy got mad when she stopped talking to him cause we found it weird talking to him. I told her about how I sent the pics she said she felt sick but forgave me cause she thought I was gonna harm myself. Fast forward the guy told me after I had still been flirting with him that I s@d him (we never met in person ever) and I felt so guilty and apologized a lot and he got annoyed and told me that he had been kinda manipulative to me and kept me in a loop of mystery and I don’t talk to him anymore. But one of my other friends stopped talking to me after I was being by too emotionally taxing on him because I became very depressed and didn’t wanna life anymore and tried to stop lifing a few times. And now idk if I actually s@d someone if I did that to someone and now I think I’m a pdo and I think I s@d my baby cousins and my little brother and now I’m scared bf I can’t even get help because my parents don’t believe in therapy and even if I wanted to I’m scared because I don’t want to go to jail but I think I deserve it honestly why should a monster like me live.i wish I could move on like my older brother and maybe he shouldn’t idk who seems to not feel guilty maybe this is what I deserve idk I feel like I can’t go on I’m in my junior year and I saw one of the people and immediately just got crushed with the guilt and spiraled of how actually shameful I am if I tell any of my friends they’ll just leave or worse
