When I went I told the priest about a certain situation and told him “ I think I did have a bad intention when I did this”. At the time I felt like this was a good way of saying it, but now I am wondering if I don’t own my sin enough. Should I go back? Did I commit sacrilege? Maybe I should have said “ I had a bad intention when I did this instead of saying “ I think “.

I take it that your Priest absolved you?
You could always go back and talk to him about it.

He did absolve me, and yes, am I am planning on it. I guess it’s just a matter of I’m wondering if I have to reconfess everything again.
 
I don’t know the whole story or your intentions but it would only be sacrilege if you were intentionally trying to mislead the priest or lied. In that case you’d have to reconfess everything.
If that wasn’t your intention… don’t overthink it too much. God’s not trying to trap you, He wants to forgive you. But speak to your priest and he’ll help you I’m sure 🙂
