Anxiety amd guilt over childhood acts

Hi, all. I am new here. I guess i dont know where else to turn for opinions or advice. Well here goes- in a nutshell, I am suddenly guilt ridden and anxiety struck, over something I did as a child. My entire life, i never ever thought anything of it at all, except that it was so embarrassing! Now I'm at a point where idk what to do anymore. Well here goes-

When i was about 7, my cousin and I (about 2 yrs older than I), kissed and dry humped (if youd even wanna call it that). It was something in the way of playing boyfriend/gf. And absolutely nothing more ever happened. Clothes never came off, I never touched his penis or vice versa, yadda yadda. 1 day i just woke up, realized we werent supposed to be doing such things, and i told him i didnt want to do them anymore. He couldn't understand why! I just told him i was done, and that was that. And weve had a perfectly normal relationship ever since.

As ive said, never did i feel anything but embarrassment over it my entire life. Now, about 25 years later, im married with children who are my life. And i cant help but be consumed with anxiety and guilt over this every day of my life. I can hardly function over it. Constantly thinking I'm going to be on a sex offender list 1 day bc of it. Any opinions will be helpful on this. As idk if im overreacting or not. Thanks, all.

Trust me, we've all done really dumb things as a kid. I've done things I'm terribly embarrassed or feel guilty about. When you are a kid, you think differently. You do things you would never do now. I understand how you feel, though. I've had to work through a lot of guilt from my childhood too. It's just working on understanding that your brain doesn't comprehend or understand things the same at that age.

Rest assured, I see no way that you would be put on a sex offender list for that. I think you are fine in those terms. Even if somehow your cousin decided to blame you for what happened...well he was older than you. He had more control over what was going on than you did! And even he wasn't fully comprehending what was happening fully at that age either. We all play family at a young age in one way or another.
