Yes.

I used to be obsessed with the idea that I had evil in me, and was a demon/devil. (this is still in place, but more under control, since the idea is probably ludicrous... probably... maybe... I think...)

I always feel like I need to repent for my sins, thus have gone throughout life trying to help people. I constantly feel guilt.

I think I used to self-harm, in part, as a way of repenting, but it was a few other things, too.

I used to be relatively obsessed with a cross necklace I had, and when it broke.. so did my faith began to shatter.. it was symbolic to me. (I was about 16 when I lost my "faith" - now 26)
