I’m not a doctor but it sounds like you might need to seek professional help. I don’t think those feelings are normal or healthy….

Agree with Moogan!

I don’t think there is an easy answer for this sort of thing. It’s possible, I suppose, that you are just stressed out. It’s also possible that there is more to it than simple stress, and it might help to talk with your doctor. I would start there, and let him give you some professional guidance.

sounds familiar, you have some sort of personality disorder.

sounds kinda like bipolar…in a way. You could be screaming for attention. Are you feeling like you are being ignored or anything

I agree with [think peace] why don’t you try therapy ?

Hey, don’t worry, therapy is normal now. I wish I had a therapist! Honestly! Sometimes its good to have an objective outsider’s point of view on whats going on in your life. It might be a little scary if you’re a young person still in high school or something, but theres no harm in reaching out to someone, just to share your thoughts and feelings. It sounds to me like these thoughts are really scaring you, so that points to the fact that you aren’t crazy. Crazy people don’t question their insanity. But if you are really worried that you might say or do something hurtful to your loved ones, then please seek help from a professional. You don’t need to tell your parents. Speak with your doctor (they can’t tell your parents or anyone else anything either, unless you’ve committed a crime), they get help you get in touch with someone who you can talk to.

i often fanatize about these things too

i don’t see why they need therapy, its normal

No, it really isnt “normal”. Its actually quite twisted and not the norm.

I don’t see how

Hey can we be friends? Maybe hang out and talk some time?

try seeking professional help.

you dont want the urges to become uncontrollable.

and you want to change so it will be easier for you to work wth it.

try the yellow pages under therapsit.

Please seek help. It must be very frightening for you. Help yourself and the ones you love. You don’t want this to get away from you.

I have had this problem for a long time, I tend to get very sweaty and tense in a moment where I’m trying to hold my anger towards an individual that did nothing to me, I just want to kill them and i dunno why. I have been seeking counseling to my urges to kill ***** or whores or any girl i know that sleeps around, I nearly murdered my step sister so i agreed to see a psychologist. After examining me for a few days he believed its a childhood thing where i was neglected and i was in search of love and their was no one in my life at the time only my family who never understood my feelings, he advised i get a spouse or a girlfriend because it has been sometime i haven’t had one, I think this problem begins with people neglecting you or people misunderstanding you so you turn to violence. Movies have a great effect on you as well, You’d be surprised how many of our thoughts come from them.

This is an “anger issue” that should be addressed thru therapy!

Ewiw, glad you like it..have a great day!

really believe this is NOT the norm. sure, we get mad at people when we are wronged, but to take another person’s life is way out there! therapy would be the answer to anger issues. Anger build up inside a person only causes harm to that person usually, but occasionally, we see it played out on the news when a person kills a bunch of people. So, the key to deal with those issues through therapy before it gets to a breaking point.

ummm..this was not the post that was answering..wild…oh well!

again Ewiw, glad you like the site and have a great day.

professional help…before you hurt someone you dont want to.

I am having the same feelings but this has been going on for a couple years. I have a great family life, but it all starts when people that i dont know start running their mouth. Thats when the violent urges start coming. I start to imagine how much physical pain i can cause them in their remaining moments on this earth and how much i would enjoy scilencing them. Whether i need to use a gun or knife or any instrument to get the job done. It honestly does scare me but i feel more and more like my sanity is slipping from me. I’ve told my mother about it and she hopes that i dont try anything stupid. I dont think its stupid, i think the person running their mouth to me is the stupid one. I am worried about going to a psychologist or whatever because i know they wont tell me what i want to hear. Just a warning to all you people out there who like to mouth off to strangers, one day a normal guy like me might not be so normal in the head. Sometimes i think i need to join the Army so i can kill people and get paid for it, HAHA i mean what a ******* job am i right? I would probably move on to a tank crewman so i can blow **** up next.

cfgifgfi, we ALL deal with that…hurting others. First and farmost, forgive yourself. Life is about today…yesterday is gone. Just use those mistakes to live a better today.
