Scrupulosity
My boyfriend can tell you that probably the characteristic of mine that he finds most frustrating is my tendency to over-analyze and worry too much. Today while examining my conscience, I acknowledged that I suffer from scrupulosity, though usually in a specific area of morality.
I share this here because I realize how easy it must be for anyone who is as analytical as me to also be scrupulous. I’ve recently discovered some portals to help online:
Thoughts That Will Not Go Away - an article by the priest who founded Scrupulous Anonymous
10 Commandments for the Scrupulous - an excellent aid for confession
