Hello,Im new here and I would need some spiritual advice.Im 17 years old and I was baptised at age 10.So one night I was thinking about confession and suddenly i realised that i never had a valid confession and i got really scared to the point i couldnt breathe,at that moment i realised I had about 2500-3000 mortal and venial sins, so i thought i would go to a general(life) confession, but there is one problem i didnt feel contrite,at the moment of realisation of the unconfessed sin i was in heavy atrition,but that feeling quickly faded.One day when i was going out of school and i fell in despair,i wept to god “If i cant go to heaven please let my mommy and family go!”.I always loved Jesus and Mary but i never realised how much sins i acumulated because of heavy shame.I have big mental problems and i had a pretty horrific childhood, and because of that i picked up some sinful behaviours at a younger age before i realised it was sinful and i couldnt get rid of it.Please, someone help me!My parishioner told me my counscience wasnt dull or that my heart was hardened,but he told me i was sensitive and because of the psychological aspect i couldnt truly feel contrite.I dont know what to do, im in a horrible situation,psychologicaly im almost going insane.When i was examining my counsience i didnt realise some things i was doing on a pretty regular basis were sinful.Please,please help me!
 
I don’t go to confession like I should but God knows your heart. If you are truly sorry for your sins, God will forgive you.
 
Have you made your first confession, communion, and confirmation yet? Just go to confession and talk to the priest. Tell him how long it’s been and that you need help from him with your confession. Your priest has heard it all. Don’t worry about what to say.

I talked about it (vaguely) with my chapelain,but the day i needed to go i ended up in emergency psychiatric care.
 
Im not, because my parish is a decanate central parish so they have much to do and they are not able.The chapelain told me i can always talk about general confession and make one at the franciscan monastery.
 
Simply go to Confession.

If you need some help, I HIGHLY suggest watching the Forgiven series on FORMED.org. If your parish doesn’t have it, you can get a free 7 day trial.

Here’s a shortcut to Forgiven on FORMED – https://goo.gl/HiQMLj

God Bless
