Weird thoughts

83% Normal
7 Comments

Always wondered if other people have this, or if I'm just weird, and since I just discovered this site, may as well ask...

Sometimes I find I have really odd thoughts that just spring out of nowhere, often horrible/mean/disgusting things, often sexual, sometimes they don't even make any sense.

I think it started when I used to wonder (years ago when I was a kid) if anyone could hear my thoughts, then my brain would just start spewing out all the worst kind of thoughts it could, to try and embarrass me presumably, in case anyone could hear. No idea why, usually I just try to drown it out with a song in my head or something.

Only happens occasionally nowadays, but used to happen quite a lot.

Anyone else ever have that kind of thing?

Is It Normal?

    Adolescence. Your brain was growing.

    But if you enjoy thinking about violence, you have a problem.

    I'm very happy that people can't read my mind.

    That's normal. I experience the same thing with the inability to drown out the thought. I feel like our mind is the one thing we should be able to have control over but the fact that we sometimes can't even suppress our thoughts fascinates me. It's interesting - but normal.

    That happens to me too. I think it happens to most people even if they would never admit it. Sometimes having those thoughts sorta means that your brain is sort of assessing a risk, i.e. "I wonder what would happen if I jumped in front of that train?" or a norm, like "Yeah, having sex with an animal would be really gross." If these thoughts are frequent enough to cause distress or have a recurring theme, they're called intrusive thoughts and are a symptom of OCD.
