In a conversation I had with my bishop, I had a similar feeling so I said to him, "I don't want to be sharing details or information that you really don't need or want to hear, but I just want to make sure that I'm being honest and that I'm repenting properly, are you sure that you don't need to know more about this?" And he confirmed that he didn't need to know anything else about this specific situation.

I agree with the previous posts - Satan's tools are fear and discouragement. If you have questions, ask them, but be willing to accept the repentance for yourself.
