Is it normal i constantly fight this temptation?

Whenever I am near a cliff or at the top of a mountain I get an urge to jump off. It's so hard to refuse, yet here I am! Does anyone else have these temptations to just jump off and end it all?

Yes, I am tempted too. 45
No, I am not tempted. 19

    Look up Vsauce on you tube. He explains this feeling and why we have it in very great detail.

      Me too! I also have a tendency to binge on vanilla meringues.

    Cognitive dissonance. Vsauce talks about it in his "why are things creepy" video.

    Not really. But I do get urges to do other dangerous "stunts" like....I can't think of one right now but I do get those similar urges.

    There's a scientific explanation for this feeling. I just can't recall what it is.
