So I ended up going to confession on January 4th and talking with the priest I felt most comfortable with (the one who knows I volunteer with the youth). He gave me some advice and he even told me to continue working with the youth.
HOWEVER I have caved again since then.
I havenāt had suicidal thoughts but Ive self injured. I know a lot of you have suggested therapy and I recently started going. We have another First Friday Mass with confessions after next Friday. Im planning on going to confession. I dont want to do this anymore and Ive come to the conclusion that I need to stop wallowing in my self pity; my family is the way it is and I cannot change it, I can only change how I react to it.
With that being said, Im a little scared to go in front of the same priest and confess the self-injury. Im afraid heāll think āwhats wrong with you or do you need to be locked up?ā BUT I feel most comfortable talking about it with him because he is understanding and very easy to talk to.
Any thoughts, suggestions?
