Yes, excessive guilt over past actions, like injuring someone while playing, can be related to OCD, especially Moral Scrupulosity OCD. It involves obsessive guilt, over-responsibility, and constant self-judgment.
To manage it:
1. Recognize it’s irrational – Accidents happen; guilt doesn’t change the past.
2. Challenge the guilt – Would you blame someone else for the same thing?
3. Practice self-forgiveness – You’re not defined by one mistake.
4. Consider therapy (CBT/ERP) – Helps break the guilt-obsession cycle.
If it’s persistent or distressing, therapy can help. If you want to take online therapy sessions, connect with me on nine two six six seven two six zero six five. I can help you work through these challenges with therapy and coping strategies.
