When I'm up high somewere I get a thought about jumping off for no reason and sometimes when I see a knife I think about picking it up and cutting my fingers. It's just random stuff like this. It's like I think of the worst outcome for everything. Is this called something and is it normal?
Its just random dangerous thoughts, everyone has them we just dont tell anyone about them. Like right now for instance Im thinking about throwing my computer out the window. Will I do i........ -offline-
Sometimes when im driving at high speed I think about what would happen if I just spin the steering wheel. I have to think about other things just to get my mind off the thought in case I go ahead with it.
You didn't need to put the comma before, urges. And you're fine as long as you don't actually hurt yourself.
Unless you do it constantly or if it's getting in the way of every day life it's normal. Like mentioned, on the highway I wonder what would happen if drove off into the ditch. I go through everything in my head. Who would I call? Could I call? Who would be affected by me dying...etc. I also think about jumping off cliffs when I'm at th edge, but that's because I love heights and that would be great.
You likely have OCD if these urges feel so lucid and real to the point where you feel like you'd actually attempt them.
Don't worry, you won't, we all have these urges, some people just also happen to carry the fear that they'd actually do them.
Sometimes when I see a knife, I do think about sticking it into my hand for no reason. Just "because I can". Just like I sometimes feel like standing up in a silent, very crowded room and yell something, just because I can. Obviously, I never do, because there would be following therapy sessions.
i get that only they're compulsions like rubbing my nials and fingers into a point and then part them on hot surfaces under hot water even touching disgusting surfaces its not normal but what can you do. XXX
