I have a constant powerful urge to kill, need some advice?
So this is my first time ever doing anything like this. I am an unremarkable person living an unremarkable life. I have a solid education and career. I also have a lot of friends and people who express love for me. The reason I am asking this here, is to be without fear of judgement. For as long as I can remember (Perhaps even before teenage years) I've had a very strong and unforgiving desire to take lives, I also would say I have violent fantasies. I find myself having to fake most of my emotional responses and empathy.
The thing being is that if you knew me, you would never believe that to be true. I am a single, young, white female who can come across as extroverted and loving to most of my friends. But in reality I tire easily of people, use them for what I need and lie to ensure they are in my favor. I don't bother with relationships as I find after a few dates I am already bored and that person has so to speak "outlived their use". I feel like nobody truly knows me, I could never tell anyone my true intentions because I know that they are socially unacceptable.
I have no past history of mental illness, abuse or anything of the sort! like I said I have had an unremarkable life. But these desires seem to have no intention of budging. No matter how much I try to feel emotion genuinely, I constantly find myself "pretending" to appear normal. In fact I've done it for so long I've started to believe there is nothing I could do to develop normal emotions. I know that killing somebody would achieve very little other than minor relief of these urges. The law is also stopping me from acting. Logic says most killers are caught, and spending the rest of my life locked up outweighs any benefit of the kill. Yet surely I should feel some sort of moral objection? All I feel is a preconditioned notion that "Killing is wrong"... and yet still the fantasies remain.
So to conclude this essay, I would appreciate your advice. How would I go about remedying this situation? are these urges to hurt and kill possible to get rid of? are they simply who I am? giving me no choice but to continue my life in a mask.
