We set up an anonymous hotline so that strangers could share their secrets and confessions. These are some of the calls we received.

So, I'm 23 years old. I'm turning 24 on December 24.

I feel like I'm lost in life and I'm never going to amount to anything living with my abuse of that.

I ran away at 19. I came back to take care of my dying grandmother and I'm not in school.

I wish I could go back to school but I just don't feel the motivation to get up and do anything because of depression and I'm also a borderline.

My fiancé, he just up and left me a month ago and I've been in a whole basically.

I'm just not going to get in job and I'm not in so difficult trying to find employment because it's like, oh, you don't have a job degree.

But I have great experience and good work ethic that makes me amazing employee and I have great leadership but I just, I don't know.

I'm just that, I guess. I don't know who I am and I'm lost. I'm just that. I feel like I have no one.

And my friends, they disappeared and I just don't know when God is going to help me. Every day, he feels like I'm going to die.

I think I don't want to die but I don't want to live like this. You know?

I got really close to cheating on my partner about a year or so ago and I've never told anybody.

There was a salesperson outside of a Walmart and we started chatting and I took their number and ended up sending some things that I would consider cheating.

I got as close to almost actually physically cheating as far as meeting up with them. And as you're driving in separate cars to the destination, I flipped the U-turn illegally and just sped up because I couldn't handle it and I knew that if I went through with it, I wouldn't be able to live with it.

I was just like this with myself. I've never told my partner but they cheated on me in the past. So in my head, it's somewhat justified but I know that if they, if the same thing, I would be seven on heartbeat if I found out.

So I don't say anything but I don't think I could ever go through with actually physically cheating. But sometimes I just get really lonely even being with somebody else that attention or desire from somebody else feels really good.

And I wish it didn't.

My mom is an alcoholic. She's sober now. I have a lot of anxiety that stems from that and that anxiety has kind of caused me to have an eating disorder.

And outwardly, I have forgiven her for a lot of that stuff. But I'm not entirely sure that I have or ever will fully let go of it. And I wish I could.

Hey, Joey. My name is Alyssa and my secret is our confession, I guess, is I am married to a registered sex offender and we got kicked out of our apartment last year and divided his record and then knowing.

And now we've been living in hotels for six plus months now. I truly believe he's been wrong, fully convicted in the state of Arizona.

And I can go and we can go into that about that if we ever have a chance to be on other people's lives.
