How do I know if during Confession I am just wasting the priests time, esp. as every month I go to Confession I just seem to be repeating the same old sins over and over again(they are not serious, mainly things like anger and impatience, that sort of thing). I am worried he might think I am wasting his time, or am a hopeless case since its always the same old thing.
Should I not Confess monthly then if its always a repeat, and just wait longer until a new`one crops up.
Am I wasting his time and making him weary, or just being over-scrupluous.Thanx.
 
These links should be helpful for understanding the canonical requirements binding Roman Catholics to annual confession. The first one offers a possible scenario for how the priest could have been correct and misunderstood. If you have any further questions or concerns that are not answered by these links, please contact Catholic Answers directly.
