My question is pretty simple. What should you do if you think you might be in a state of serious sin, but are really not sure (say that you don’t know if all 3 requirements for a mortal sin were met)?

I agree with the other posters. When I find myself in this predicament, I abstain from the Eucharist at Mass and go to confession as soon as possible. I’m also of the opinion that a regular confession is very healthy. I try to go once a month no matter what.
