I have an appointment tomorrow and am going to have to confess to this. Hoping I can cross the bridge of fear and shame to do that though. Thanks for making me feel not so alone in this.

Good luck with telling your t. My worry about telling him, was worse than it actually turned out, & I had lied about it initially, when we first met just over a year ago! I am quite open now to talking about the overwhelming urges I get now, which has helped me curb this habit somewhat.
