News of Remorse

Ash edit

I believe myself to have certain narcissistic traits, perhaps even the full-blown disorder. I've always had extreme problems caring for others, as all I tend to think about is myself. I rarely think of consequences, especially interpersonal or emotional ones, when I speak to people, coming across as either arrogant or harsh.

I have just broke up with my girlfriend of 14 months. I had felt like since the beginning I'd been living a sort ...

Hello. And I appreciate you taking your time to read this if you do. It will be fairly long, and I apologize for that. I haven't ever told anyone about this, spare a counselor on a hotline once. And I didn't even tell her the full story.

*This could be a trigger for some people, I'm sure. I don't want to hurt anyone else so please be aware.*

I have been feeling an emense amount ...

I'm not quite sure whether this counts as a sexual experience or not but i had completely forgotten this had happened until the other day and now i am racked with guilt and disgust with myself. I can't remember what age we were..we were both double figures, but under 15. I'd say between the ages of 13 and 15. Definitely old enough to know what we were doing and i was definitely old enough to ...

...totally weird and hypocritical from an otherwise reputable website and I'll get all confused and start to suspect that seemingly enlightened people are actually not self-aware and could even have perpetrated abuse without realising it. It really, really freaks me out and sends me into a confused panic.

So, this is the article I read:

'It Happened To Me: I Dated An Underage Guy'

Basically, the author recounts that when she was 23 she ...

I'm a monster for this. I'm a teenage male and when i was around 13-14, i almost sexually molested another male child. I'm not gay nor am I a pedophile, I was just curious. Basically what happened is that I asked him to sit on my lap. We started jumping up and down, and I got hard. He turned around and looked, i think he noticed. I wasn't in my right mind-I asked him if ...

Hello,

My story is a complicated one, but I will try to be as concise as possible. I suffer from Pure-O OCD, for those of you who dont know, I have intense irrational fears, obsessing constantly, guilt over everything etc. My main OCD fear is paedophilia OCD, or the irrational fear of being a paedophile. I was diagnosed about 5 years ago and it has torn my life apart. But I try and keep going. ...

And relapse. Conversation with her where she accuses me of talking behind her back. I had messaged her mother, while I was in a fit of flash backs, that I thought she would have a new boy toy by now or if not now soon. She apparently saw this. Wants me not to have contact with her family any more. So I blocked all of them on all of the things. Because I always give ...

I can't even find the words to say how I still feel about my ex boyfriend's suicide 7 years ago. It still haunts me because after a very abusive relationship, which is such a long and exhausting story to be saved for another post, I finally gathered the strength to leave and drive 500 miles back to home base. He constantly called my Mother's and left messages begging me to come back. My Grandfather passed ...

It is not my intention to preach, rather to advise those who are feeling the pain of remorse based on what has helped me. If you're anything like me, the colder the truth is served, the more clarity with which you see the world.

So here goes. Good luck...

1) Fully accept that you will never forgive yourself

It is not your place to forgive you. By all means, be open to forgiveness from those ...
