Should I have not told my therapist I committed a crime?
My wife is pregnant with our first baby. We didn't know if we even wanted kids and I fear about my ability to be a father because I had the worst example for parents. My mom left when I was 8 because my dad was abusive and just left me there with my abusive and my dad started forcing me to have sex with adults when I was 14 and I didn't get out of that situation until I ran away at 19. Me and my therapist have talked about my shitty upbringing and yesterday I confessed to something bad I did and I went and talked to my wife about it and she thinks I should not have confessed to a crime to my therapist. When I was 19 I committed assault. The last time I ever saw my dad was a few months after running away. He found me and had a friend drive him to where I was staying. He tried to get me to come back home by admitting he was a bad father and he was so sorry. I wouldn't leave so he decided to insult me and told me no one would ever love me and that my own mom didn't because she left and didn't care enough to take me with her. So I snapped. We were by the person I was living with garage and there was this 4 foot long pipe that I picked up and hit my dad with. I was red. I kept hitting him and yelling at him and only stopped because I realized he turned me into a monster. I was never violent until then. I didn't kill him. My dad died a few years after that from a stroke but I did threaten to if he ever spoke to me again. I don't forgive my dad and I never will for ruining me and breaking me as a person but the reason I brought it up in therapy is because I have had a hard time forgiving myself because while I hated my dad. I never wanted to hurt him or be violent and I have wondered for years am I just as bad because I beat my almost 50 year old father with a pipe. My wife isn't judging me. She's saying maybe I shouldn't have confessed to a crime to my therapist and now I'm having anxiety because I thought they can't say anything. I'm 27. This happened a long time ago and my dad is dead. Should I be worried?
Edit: I don't really care to forgive either of my parents. The last time I ever spoke to my mom she made it clear she didn't care what happened to me after she left and that it wasn't her fault or her problem. I have never treated my wife or any woman badly because of my mother. If anything I blamed myself because I thought something must be wrong with me to be so unlovable that neither of my parents cared about me. I know a lot of people say forgiveness sets you free but personally for me I rather not. I hate my dad obviously more than my mom but I think all I want is to finally work through this and move on and forgive myself for letting myself become a monster. Forgive my parents are not on my 2025 bingo card and I'm fine with that. My therapist is too
Edit: I don't believe in God. I don't do religion. All I wanted to know if I could get in trouble confessing to a crime I committed years ago. Not
talk about forgiveness or be told I'm going to hell. Thx though.
