From draft to published
What happens to a confession after you send it, and what we do and do not know about you.
The four steps
- 1Write it
Say what is on your mind in up to 1,000 characters. No account, no name, no email.
- 2We review it
A moderator reads every submission against the community guidelines before anything goes live.
- 3It gets published
Approved confessions appear on the page you sent them to, and may be shared on social media.
- 4People respond
Readers who recognise themselves in your story react to it. That is where the support comes from.
Anonymity and privacy
- Names or other personal identifiers
- Email addresses or phone numbers
- A social media connection
- Your location
- Your identity stays off every published confession
- Traffic is encrypted over HTTPS
- IP addresses are deleted after 30 days
- Submissions are never linked to each other
How moderation works
Every submission is read by a moderator before it can appear. They check two things.
- Appropriate language and tone
- Something meaningful to say
- No spam or repeated submissions
- Within the 1,000 character limit
- No personal information about anyone
- No harassment or targeting
- No hate speech or discrimination
- No threats or illegal content
How long it takes
Writing a confession
- Personal experiences and reflections
- Academic struggles or wins
- Relationships and friendships
- Mental health, in your own words
- Campus life and what you notice
- Career worries and hopes
- Names of specific people
- Contact details of any kind
- Explicit or inappropriate content
- Harassment or hate speech
- Threats or illegal activity
- Spam and repeated posts
Before you rely on us
khconfess is a place to be heard, not a support service. It cannot offer counselling, medical or legal advice, and the anonymous format means nobody can follow up with you.
If you need help now
Confessions can cover heavy subjects. If reading them is making things harder for you, step away and talk to someone.

Your experience might be exactly what someone else needs to read. It takes a minute and nobody will know it was you.
