I think that the effect of someone living with a secret sin would be devastating to that person’s life. The reason I think this is because this person would have to live their entire life keeping this horrible secret, and never be able to tell anyone.

So, if someone has a secret sin, they most likely are having a difficult time in life and they are drastically failing. The only way they could make their life less of a failure is to tell people and let it out what they did, no matter how bad it is and except the consequences. If they were to do that they would surely feel much better than if they kept it in for their whole life, even if the punishment was to go to jail for the rest of their life, they would feel better knowing that they told people about the evil that they had held in for how ever much time, and they will be able to die at peace, or live out the remainder of their life happy and cheerfully, until they died of natural causes, or cancer.
