Hey
After my conversion to catholicism, i recalled i lusted after one of my relatives, during, let’s suppose, my early teens.
I made the struggle to confess it after my general cofesssion, when i forgot this sin, but now, after one and half year after that confession, i realised i only said i lusted after, but forgot to add that i also hugged with this relative to arouse myself.
So, must I confess i also hugged with this relative? Given I’m a scrupulous about faith, and I’m not sure i had hugging in mind during confession, but it’s also possible i had, since i didn’t know I had to be so precise during confession, and word “lust” covered more than one impure sin, for egsample pornography or impure thoughts. Also there was little difference, becasue normaly after lusting i would go hug her, so it could be hard to tell difference. Do these premises allow me, as a scrupulous believer, to not bring my past sin again, because I’m not certain that i haven’t confessed them yet,?
 
Please talk to your priest.
You will get a plethora of answers here, some right, some wrong and potentially damaging to your faith.
Only your priest can answer your questions for sure.
 
If it bothers you so much, just confess to a priest that
you have done it. Devils can prey on your conscience
for unconfessed sins but cannot do so after confession
and absolution, they are “under the blood(of Jesus)”!!
