I get the urge to do really stupid things. Like i'm really tempted to jump off my roof, and i get tempted to drive my car into a tree, or drive on the wrong side of the road, or like jump off platforms at train stations.
I don't wanna hurt myself, i just wanna see what it'd be like :hyper:

Worryingly, yeah, I get that. It's some kind of morbid curiosity. Although I have done the car/tree one. It was fun to an extent, which is also worrying! :nervous:
:yes: Oh the excitement :yippe:
i always thought i had some sort of mental instability...
maybe its just common?;)
'After hypothesizing a number of causes (particularly the idea that we repeat traumatic events in order to master them after the fact), Freud considered the existence of a fundamental death drive that would counterbalance the tendency of beings to do only what they find pleasurable. Organisms, according to this idea, were driven to return to a pre-organic, inanimate state but they wished to do so in their own way.'

Then again, sometimes a cigar is just a cigar...
Yes. When I walk over a bridge I want to chuck myself off, not suicidal but I just get the urge. And when I meet knew people, I often want to punch them even if I like them! Not that I ever do but it's a strange urge!
I watched a tourettes program and apparently sufferers have the same kind of thoughts and can act them involuntary. It's also linked to OCD!
