So see a therapist already! I only mentioned a priest because it sounded like you were concerned about confidentiality. But honestly, nowadays animal cruelty laws are getting stricter and acts that used to be misdemeanors are now felonies. Here in Nevada there have already been several cases where minors have been charged with felonies for animal cruelty. I understand that you don't want an increase or change in your medications but that's better than you continuing to abuse animals and eventually killing them. Studies show that people who hurt animals eventually go on to hurt people. I'm so sorry you are going through this ordeal and having these awful urges. But it's really commendable that you're admitting to having these problems because it's true that most people who do these things don't seek help until they are required to by a judge. It's none of my business but I'm curious as to your diagnosis. I'm guessing some kind of personality disorder. I hope you get the help you need.
Is it normal I have the urge to hit my pets?
