Hi everyone, this is my first post. I'm a little scared but looking for some advice.
I have anxiety and possibly developed scrupulosity recently, based off confessing and asking for forgiveness from others. I'll say something wrong, tell a little lie, or not offer to share food etc and then get it stuck in my head that I have to confess my sin to the person. If they have no idea about the sin or have forgotten, do i still have to apologize to them or is God enough?
My anxiety makes me replay everything in my head so I remember something 6 hrs later and then go apologize and well you can imagine the confused looks.
It seems impossible not to sin in some way or another but does God want me to apologize to them for every little thing?
Its been exhausting and stressful and its affecting relationships. Any thoughts/kindness would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
