Is it normal that i want to set fire to things.

I have these random thoughts pop into my head all the time about burning building down/ setting people on fire. Usually I just randomly think, "I'm going to set you on fire." or, "I'll burn you all." things like that. Sometimes I even say it out loud by mistake. This happens for no reason,its almost like a tourettes style kind of thing.

Of course I am never going to burn anyone or set their house alight. These thoughts pop onto my head out of no where.

    I kind of experienced that, except I keep having the thought of punching them instead of burning them to ashes.

    Sounds like you would make a good arsonist. ;) But all kidding aside, I don't think that's really normal.

  • You called them random thoughts but they really don't seem all that random. Those are very specific thoughts that are occurring all the time. Obsessive thoughts.
