Priests can get exhausted too. They are standing in for Christ. But they tend to get frustrated when we become overly scrupulous and do not trust in the grace and forgiveness that Jesus gives us. Jesus I trust in You.
I can imagine. I did however preface my confession with telling him that I think I might be undergoing scrupulosity issues. I'm in a stage at this moment where I'm kind of scared of Jesus because he can be scary when he's angry.
The priest was receptive to me confessing venial sins nonetheless. I just hate the feeling when someone who I want to confess my sins to shows impatience of any sort; I hope that if he did feel that way, it's not forever. I was having a good feeling about this confessor, but I think my scrupulosity got the better of him.
I understand! Several years ago,I was going to confession almost every 2 days over the same sin, and I think the priest was growing upset with me. He eventually helped me immensely.
Did he eventually stop getting upset at you? Since you said he helped you immensely, how long did you keep going to him anyway? I know these sound like picky-une questions, but I tend to overthink things in the eyes of many people.
You should also seek a spiritual director. They can be very helpful.
