need advice... im so anxious
I need some perspective. Recently, someone in my family caused a major financial mess, and my parents strictly asked me to keep it a secret and not tell anyone around us. but because i was so stressed and overwhelmed by the situation, i accidentally vented about it online to a small group of friends in a private Discord server. it was TMI, but i didn't share any real names, ages, or locations, and I immediately deleted the post after an hour once I calmed down.
but now, I feel horribly guilty for breaking my parents' trust. i'm also deeply anxious about whether someone might have screenshotted it, even though my profile doesn't contain any real-life info about me (it's just a typical Discord account). Should I confess to my parents that I slipped up online, or should I just keep it to myself, learn from it, and move on? I'm so lost right now... i feel bad
do they know your name, location, etc?
no?
then it's basically the same as talking to a wall.
online friends, as long as you don't breach certain privacy concerns, can hurt you about as much as you let them.
telling your parents is just asking to get scolded for something with zero consequences. that and as a kid, they should be more aware tha...... reply
