16 Comments

for months, ive been having thoughts and urges of wanting to cut off my arm and consume my flesh. i'd often have voices even telling me to do so. i am nervous to tell my therapist, so i am resorting here.
for more context of my situation, i suffer with depression, anxiety, adhd, schizoaffective disorder, and ptsd.
i don't know why this is happening or what caused it but it is scaring me.

    Once you get it cut off I bet you'll forget about the eating part.

    i'm 99%sure this post is a troll, but a couple years ago there was a fucktard at my job who used to say he always wanted to cook and eat human flesh.one day he even cut off a tiny piece of his own finger and fryed it to know how it taste. If you're not just trolling, you should seek professional mental help and proper medication.

      thank you for being a serious response. i have tried bringing it up with my therapist a few times but i always felt scared of the idea of being sent away. i know i should be sent away but it scares me thinking about being locked away again. mental hospitals arent a nice experience and it's just something i try to avoid going to. im scared that my therapist will try to send me away if i tell her the entirety of what's happening.

    Intrusive thoughts often do not reflect the true intentions or morality of their victim. However, if this has been ongoing for months, I must agree with the comments above and say that you should be completely honest with your therapist. Nothing can be done if you are not open with them.

    You should talk to your therapist about it. That’s what they are there for, to help you. I’m sure it will make you feel a lot better to get that thought off your chest.

    It is definitely not normal that you are on this website seeking a diagnosis, please consult your own private therapist.

    So let's say hypothetically you were at point of no return and you were gonna do it in 5 minutes from now. When you get one cut off, then what would you use to get the other one off ? Maybe start a chainsaw first then just do one then roll over and do the other ? I'm just curious how that would realistically. I'm not making fun of your post, just wonder how. P.S. dont do it. You would need someone to dress you, undress you, feed you, wipe your ass. It wouldnt be worth it.

    Yes, you need to talk to a professional. I'd even see a neurologist... You're having very bizarre intrusive thoughts.
