Is it normal to have vivid murderous thoughts?

16 Comments

I am a 21 year old college student and have been struggling to pay for my schooling. I can't get a job in this economy so lately I have been having disturbing thoughts and i think i might act upon them. I fantasize about murdering an old pawnbroker who lives in my neighborhood. He's saved all of his money in cash so if I killed him I could easily steal it. No one likes this man and he is a menace to the neighborhood he's killed three of my dogs so it's not like he will be missed. I'm worried because I think about every single detail about how I would murder him like what i would do with the body and even what I would do if the police caught me in the act. Recently he invited me into his house to help him with installing a new tv and I almost stabbed him with a screwdriver right then! I am deeply concerned about my mental state should I see a doctor or will my thoughts pass once I get a steady job?

    yes i think you should STEAL a dr lmao!

    but on a more serious note..when ppl are dealing with alot of crap and stress like you are, trust me, they have thoughts like that that scare them..cuz its like a mental survival technique that our brains pitch together.. their own way to create a perfect outcome for a shitty sitution. everyone has a tendancy to brew up some scarrrryyy ass shit in their heads. i would like to say that when you get a steady job, that will be a huge amount of weight off your shoulders and youll be fine. but i dont want to say for certain. you might always come back to "should i do it?" just bcuz it would be the easy way out..easy money, and one less asshole ....but at the same time, maybe not! so idk. maybe see a dr...i dont think its a big deal tho i think its pretty normal

    Uhhhhh. Are you trolling or is this legit because you actually just described the plot of crime and punishment to the letter except you actually would have attacked him with a shovel instead of the screwdriver?

    penguin1, dude you have yet to learn that this guy can actually get away with the crime if he kills the man, dumps him in th ocean with a suitcase so people think that he left, keeps the money hidden away from his house, then when the invest. is over he can dig up all that money and move to avoid being caught with all the money money... then again I guess he should see a doc.

      dude your logic is so flawed. First of all when dumping his body into the ocean he would more than likely be spotted for a number of reasons. second of all he's probably not the only one who knows about the money so if he moves all of a sudden the he will become a prime suspect. the smartest thing to do would be to blackmail someone else and not to make a movce until they've been convicted, but he'd still have to be on the look out for unconvinced detectives.

    I have thoughts like that towards my grandfather. everyday he yells at me i imagine just shooting him or shoving a knife through his head. i've only told two people about my problem. but, i think just to be on the safe side (since you almost let yourself go) you should see someone. I'm getting close to attempting.

        And if you go along with your idea now, and the guy turns up dead, the cops'll be looking for you.......

    Definitely steal a doctor. You obviously don't trust yourself.
