I have vivid murder fantasies. iin?

IDK, I have fantasies about going on killing sprees in public places, and have from the time I was very little. The only thing that's changed as I've become an adult is that they aren't "power tripping" fantasies anymore as much as "revenge on society" fantasies. Basically they are fantasies about flipping the bird to the world and getting a "vengeance rush" now, whereas when I was small (>5) there was something different there... something more.... sinister?

Do most people experience this kind of thing from time to time, or at least know what I'm talking about how it was diff as a kid? Like w/smooshing bugs?

    I think it is normal that you have these fantasies so long as you absolutely do not or are not tempted to carry them out. I am sure everyone has thought about things like this before though.

    Is it normal that I'm laughing at this?

    As the others have said, it's alright to think those things as long as you don't act on them. I myself have had many a violent fantasy. One of my old therapists told me that she once worked at a place she hated and had daydreams about setting it on fire and throwing the receptionist out the window.

    I think it's okay, just as long as you don't actually do it. I used to think like that, but not so much now. More than a year ago I had fantasies of what I wanted to do to someone inparticular...I won't go into detail because I don't want to scare y'all. But it's in the past, I've gotten slightly less tempermental.

    Yes, I used to get that all the time when I was little, and from time to time still do now. However, I think when I was younger it was a lot more intense. I would imagine things in great detail, and think about it for long lengths of time, and only about people who did me wrong. But like Shackleford said, never carry these fantasies out.

    I rarely get angry at people, so when I do its pretty intense. I found a way to channel that anger, though. So my murderous thoughts have calmed down a bit. Thank God!
