What’s the secret you’re keeping right now? 

Did your heart just stop at that question? We bet you can probably count up to a dozen memories or pieces of personal information that you don't want to share with other people. And that’s fair! Humankind has fought for privacy rights for years. We’re not here to learn about your secrets, but to show how 50 people got the burden off their backs with anonymous secret confessions.  

As the professor of psychology at Georgia Gwinnett College, David Ludden, Ph.D., points out, secrets can be psychologically damaging because the secret holder can't express what happened and discuss it with others. And as we’ve all experienced, talking about our problems and getting a second opinion can be a huge relief. But when it comes to secrets, we can’t share what happened and have the same approach. Actually, the idea that someone else might know our secret leads to sleepless nights. 

Most of the time, you probably think of letting the cat out of the bag because it’s driving you crazy. Still, you can’t hand the power of blackmail or shame to family, friends, and strangers, so you prefer to take some secrets to the grave. But, that’s where the advantage of anonymity comes into play. Instead of confessing to priests and bartenders, try confessing sins anonymously online. Without further ado, we’ve found 50 anonymous secret confessions shared on Fesshole to help you realize that your secrets might not be that bad.

    This is lovely! A friend of mine is 31 and almost every time we get together she talks about how hot she was when she was 20. Well, duh, we all were. I told her someday she'll be 60 wishing she was 31 again and to stop wasting her time missing out on life now!

    I only noticed the difference between Irish, Scotch & American whiskeys, but never between brands. The real quality is only noticeable if it's aged over 21 years, that's when you can tell the difference!

    Yeah they do. You see your parents and grandparents helping each other out in odd, gross ways your whole life. Sometimes you're the one helping out, or it's your aunt checking a mole on grandpa's shoulder at the Christmas gathering. Because, you know, you care about them because they're family and they're human beings. I sense that this guy is more about cracking a joke at his wife's expense here, posting it online, and it makes me wonder what he thought women were supposed to be like when he was 20.

    I gave CPR to a lady that collapsed while on my way to work. Once the paramedics turned up I got back in my car and went to work. The local papers were calling out for the "hero" to come forward and even had a blurry picture from someone's phone. As much as I would love the attention, I couldn't be bothered with the hassle so decided not to own-up. Not one of my friends or family recognised me when I showed them the article and don't believe it was me.

    I knew someone who was like this, but stole it from their mom I was staring at the ground for ages, and never found a dime. And she kept finding tenners and twenties. She told me somewhen and I was honestly shocked, as from the outside she was a lovely person. But boy, the more you knew her, the more disgusting you realized she was...

    i was making baked beans one time and cutting up the salt pork when i saw this "growth" and was horrified. Took a sec before i realized what it was. just hadn't occurred to me before. totally should have, as my family have a tradition of cooking whole pigs on a spit and i've helped prepare them dozens of times. somehow the little sealed pack of salt pork was a different thing in my mind.
