I just went to confession today, and confessed a bad thought that I had forgot to confess in my last confession with him. After the confession he talked to me a bit and I told me about my struggle with thoughts (although I have gotten better). My issue was mainly with the bad thoughts I had before. One of the bad thoughts I confessed today, the priest talked to me afterwards and have that as an example, saying that I wouldn’t really want that to happen. And, no… Now I wouldn’t have ever wanted that to happen. I told the priest tht i don’t want that to happen. But, at the time I might have or I did, and I didn’t say this to him. I think I did say during the confession that at the time I did though. Either way, is my confession valid, even if the priest thought that I didn’t want the thought but I did?
 
A suggestion that might help you to overcome your bad thoughts.
I suffered for many years with your affliction until a priest in Confession made a suggestion that works. He said that every time a bad thought entered my mind, I should shut my eyes and visualize the face of Christ with the Crown of Thorns and the blood dripping down His face, and realize that He is paying for our sins.
Guess what!!!It works!!!

Thank you soo much for that! I need to try that for sure. I went to the chapel after confession and I feel like it honestly helped clear my mind. I’m thinking I need to spend more time doing that or going adoration, because I don’t do that much.
