Hello.
It’s been a while since I’ve wrote on here. I’m going to confession soon and every time I go through an examination of conscious but have to wait a while to go to confession, the list gets longer and longer and sometimes I don’t know if I’m accusing myself of sins I haven’t even done. I start feeling physically ill and am consumed by writing down everything. I feel like I’m scrupulous but that doesn’t mean there aren’t sins. I do have almost every form of OCD in the book, at some point or another in my life–sexual OCD, blasphemous OCD (which hits me a lot lately), germ OCD etc. AndI suffer from intrusive thoughts.
But I have a few questions.
Is making a inappropriate comment about an actor a sin. We were watching a show several years ago and this actor was wearing tight pants and ‘things’ were visible. Is noticing a joking about it a sin? Is noticing it in another movie they are in and again joking about it a sin?
Is listening and singing along to music with God’s name in it a sin–for instance “Running up that Hill” by Placebo. I also sang along to “Personal Jesus” by Depeche Mode without remembering how inappropriate that song was and felt gross about it.
Is snacking and eating desserts a sin?
Is eating while not hungry a sin? I read a video that says it isn’t, but then there is a quote by St. Thomas Aquinas that seems to suggest it is. If so is it mortal?
Is unintentional arousal a sin. If I’m reading anything remotely sexual–Song of Songs, Theology of the body, forums on here asking about sexual stuff, sexual crime reports, or watching Tv with kissing etc, it happens. I even had it happen while reading about female wellness checks and got worried that it would happen if I had that checkup done. It makes me feel that reading any of these things is a sin because it happens and doesnt stop. I dont enjoy it.
I was also wondering about kissing? Is thinking about kissing, or kissing someone a sin? Is reading about kissing or writing a scene with kissing a sin? I’m not lusting or thinking about it to induce sexual pleasure or anything–so not lusting, so I was wondering?
Also if anyone else says God’s name in vain it repeats in my head, and I try to fix it by turning it to gosh. Mental fixing is a sign of OCD, but I don’t really know if I’ve said it. It also happens with cuss words too.
Thank you. I’m sorry if that is a long post, I just have a hard time with this.
