Is it normal to often day dream of the worst things happening.

When driving down the street if a car was to stop short or go through a red light, then i will day dream of the car flipping and killing me or crashing and making other cars crash into me. This happens all the time, like at the bank if i see a hooded person i think they are going to rob me and kill me, everyday it is a new scene that goes through my head and usually it is more than once a day.....

    I tend to do this as well, I agree with a previous comment that it can really keep you alert and on your toes. I find that you can't let your mind get to crazy though least you let the thoughts start hindering you. I joined a gym again and I keep imagining things like, " what if my grip was off just a bit and the bar while benching came slamming down on my chest!?" and so of course I see this entire event happen in my head. You could say, well shit I won't even risk that! lol but it just makes you more cautious.

    I do this too. Mine is always a commercial airplane landing in a residential area. I need to stop watching Final Destination.

    That sounds like me... Everything I do, I imagine a horrible outcome. Like me going into a building and someone purposely pushing me down the stairs, or somebody waiting behind my car in a parking lot, etc...

    You're a pessimist in a strange and dangerous world. it's perfectly natural to fantasize about bad scenarios...keeps you on your toes.
