I think of horrible scenarios for no reason?

Sometimes when I am talking to someone (especially someone that I am expected to show respect to), I am compelled to think of the worst possible thing I could say to them. Even if its not true. Its usually something like "I want to have sex with you" or "Im going to kill you". Or I think about what would happen if I just knocked things over, spilt a drink, etc. Typing this now, I realize I probably sound like a psycho. But I am not a violent or mean person at all, this is why it confuses me so much that I do it.

Occasionally it gets worse; I have this irrational feeling that I will carry out those actions without being able to stop myself. Or I feel like the person will read my mind and know what I am thinking about.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about, or have any idea why I might be doing this?

    I think that is OCD - intrusive thoughts of horrible scenarios, I think. Try not to worry about it - it will likely go away in time, and it's not really abnormal.
