prayers for you :hug1:
try to pray the Rosary, regardless of how it feels. If you feel an aversion to it, that might the enemy trying to stop you, don’t listen to him and pray.
 
If you are in fear, it can be that you need help for anxiety issues.

Regarding your guilt: you can only commit grave sin if you knowingly and willingly consent to committing grave sin.
Clearly, you haven’t.
Therefore you do appear to be suffering some form of anxiety and stress, and from what you indicate, you appear also to be lonely.

Please feel free to contact me on Private Messages, if you wish.

From the Catechism of the Catholic Church

1857 For a sin to be mortal, three conditions must together be met: “Mortal sin is sin whose object is grave matter and which is also committed with full knowledge and deliberate consent.”

1859 Mortal sin requires full knowledge and complete consent. It presupposes knowledge of the sinful character of the act, of its opposition to God’s law. It also implies a consent sufficiently deliberate to be a personal choice…

1860 Unintentional ignorance can diminish or even remove the imputability of a grave offense… The promptings of feelings and passions can also diminish the voluntary and free character of the offense, as can external pressures or pathological disorders.
 
Try some prayers to St. Michael the Archangel. It sounds like the devil really doesn’t want you to be praying! I had this same difficulty for many years–I was overcome by guilt and fear and I literally felt like I couldn’t pray. Sometimes I couldn’t even make my arm move to make the sign of the cross. I can’t put my finger on just what I did differently, but I know I made an appointment with the priest to talk about it, I went to confession, and I directed my prayers to the Holy Spirit to protect me from the enemy. It did eventually go away.

Pax Christi,
