Synopsis

Characterized by fears and anxieties about sin, guilt, punishment, and hell, scrupulosity is a psychological affliction that effects tens of thousands of individuals, many Catholic. Based on twenty-five years of questions and answers to the "Scrupulous Anonymous" newsletter, Understanding Scrupulosity offers advice, spiritual counsel, and peace.
