Father Scott Bailey joins Patrick to discuss Scrupulosity
(2:43) what is scrupulosity?
What are signs that we might be scrupulous?
(7:26) how can someone who struggles with confession find peace in the sacrament?
(13:26) Ella - I'm convinced my young daughter has a major issue with scrupulosity.  She keeps asking to go to confession.  She keeps saying she has to go again.  She thinks everything is a mortal sin.
Michael - I have a friend who suffers from it. He's working at dealing with it. I'm an addict in a 12 step program. I see a lot of similarities between scrupulosity and addition. AS one who suffers, if they'd use the 12 steps, it would be a plus.

(21:16) Break 1
Iris - I had something bad happen to me when I was young, and didn't tell anyone.  I fear the woman who called about her daughter earlier is dealing with the same thing.
(24:46) Rae - If someone has been away from the church, made a confession, and then thought of something later, and was troubled by that, even though the priest said you were forgiven, should I be worried about that and take it to confession.
How does Pride play into scrupulosity?
Sarah - suffered from it in the past.  He identified that I was dealing with it. My penance was to sit in front of the manger and contemplates God's love and mercy.
(33:29) Mary - I struggle with repeating (starting a prayer) and don't think it's good enough and then start over. It makes it difficult to get through and finish because I'm constantly starting over.

(38:26) Break 2
(39:27) Latasha - I struggle with repeating (starting a prayer) and don't think it's good enough and then start over. It makes it difficult to get through and finish because I'm constantly starting over.
Who are some good saints about scrupulosity.
