Admitting the truth, no matter how nuanced and uncomfortable it might be, can set you free. That’s the point of a confession—you lighten your psychological burden and get rid of a ton of anxiety by spilling the tea about whatever it is that’s been making you feel stressed or guilty (or both!).

That’s where the popular ‘Fesshole’ Twitter account comes in. It styles itself as a place where you can anonymously confess your sins, whether they’re serious or silly. We’ve collected some of the best recent tweets, as featured by the account, to pique your interest, Pandas. Scroll down, upvote your faves, and if you suddenly feel the urge to confess, we know the perfect place for you to do so…

Created in June 2018 by Rob Manuel, the ‘Fesshole’ social media project has since grown absolutely massive. The account has over 952k followers on Twitter, with another 23k people following the project’s Facebook page.

What’s more, ‘Fesshole’ has become such a phenomenon that the founder has published a book, ‘The Very Best of Fesshole: Britain Confesses Anonymously,’ featuring some of people’s most hilarious posts over the years. From deep and dark secrets to the “most outrageously funny faux pas,” there’s a bit of everything to keep everyone entertained.

The entire project has grown tremendously over the past five years. So much so that Manuel, the founder, is even hosting ‘Fesshole’ shows in the United Kingdom. Clearly, people enjoy sharing their innermost thoughts and hearing about others’ sins.

In fact, with ‘Fesshole,’ you get served a broad range of relatable thoughts and emotions. On one side of this metaphorical platter, you have some of the darker aspects of humankind—the things that we’ve at least thought of doing. On the other side, you have lighthearted, comical content that helps balance everything out.

Bored Panda recently spoke about the importance of confessions with Andrea Bonior, Ph.D., the host of the mental health advice podcast ‘Baggage Check’ and the bestselling author of ‘Detox Your Thoughts.’ She shed some light on why confessions make us all feel better and what we can do to be a tad kinder to others, even if we might feel inclined to judge them from the get-go.

"The idea of confessing in order to absolve yourself of something has been around, likely, since the beginning of time, and has of course been incorporated into many religious traditions,” the mental health expert told Bored Panda during an earlier interview.

“By admitting to something we are doing, it can help us feel less alone with the secret—and more accepted, even among strangers, rather than imagining that we would be cast aside and rejected because of our secret," Dr. Bonior said.

One of the symptoms of Prosopagnosia (also known as face blindness or facial agnosia) is the inability to tell twins apart. I can't. You might have it too, 3% of people do.

I can't even tell siblings apart, or unrelated people for that matter, if they look a lot alike.

Just call one of their names. Whoever comes, is the one you are looking for. I work in a school library, and once, many years ago, there was a set of identical triplets, just known as the Thompsons. No one could tell them apart. I knew their names, but when one of them came in I just said, "Are you 1, 2 or 3"

I taught a pair of identical twins. They always dressed exactly alike so it was hard to tell them apart. My method was to tell a joke. They had completely different laughs.

I taught a pair of twins I was only able to tell apart by their different handwriting.

A doctor once said even the most identical rwins will have different belly buttons - because it is not genetic, it's how the doctor tied it off.

My best friend from high school has identical twins and the only way I can tell them apart is because one of them has a small scar on his face. Before that happened, I was clueless.

There are identical twin boys in my son's class (they all have learning disabilities) and he always knows which is which, even if only one is around, and I find this awesome. (These are the first twins he's ever known)

If they're about to turn 5, surely they know their own names by now and respond to them. Try speaking to them

I know identical twins (male, 60+ years old), both married with children. Even today they switch homes without their spouse knowing.

You had better find that way to know who is whom, children aren't stupid, hon.

"It helps validate that we are still acceptable as human beings, and haven't driven everyone away. It also just typically helps to put words to our own experiences and feelings, and to have someone bear witness to something difficult—which is part of why therapy can be so helpful,” she explained to us.

Dr. Bonior noted that making immediate judgments about others is “very natural,” but we have to keep one thing in mind: we have to understand that our initial perceptions of what people are like might be wrong. Or they might be distorted or incomplete. There’s usually a larger picture to be aware of, there are different sides to each story.

"By recognizing that we only have one side of every story, and that we can't automatically assume that we'd behave a certain way in a situation we've never been in, we help remember that although we might have a knee-jerk reaction, we shouldn't necessarily let it inform our behavior," the expert said.

"It also might be helpful to think of times in our life when we had our perspective widened because we didn't realize until we were in a situation just how we would behave. Finally, we can recognize that even when someone HAS made a choice we don't agree with, our reactions are often most helpful if we can meet them where they are, and try to understand what led to their decision, and gain some insight from it, rather than automatically condemning them and pushing them away."
