Before confession it could be nerve-racking, but you should focus on the task ahead of you and confessing everything. Being in confession can be a little intimidating, but just remember you are talking straight to God and to not hold anything back. After confession you feel relieved and renewed and you feel more careful about what you say and do for next time you are going to confession.
