What are your intrusive thoughts?

r/

We all get them. What are they? Sometimes I wish I had an old beater car so I don’t need to defensive drive. Just let them destroy their cars for their stupid decisions.

    Oh, many.

    I want to hurt myself/kill myself.

    I’m too fat/ugly/stupid/worthless.

    None of this matters or could ever matter. Nothing I do matters or could ever matter.

    I want to love. I want to be loved. I wish I could never interact with another human being in my life.

    Flashes of wild fancy and brief daydreams, from the exceptionally mundane to the fantastic to the romantic and horrific.

    Random thoughts about things I’m interested in, or were interested in, or musings about random subjects.

    Basically my head is a eight lane highway of bumper cars somewhat but never fully going in the same direction, constantly colliding with each other and causing small explosions that derail my train of thought and what little mental balance I have.

    This is impulsive thoughts. Intrusive thoughts is like I could stab that baby with my box cutter right now.

    I wish I could slap groups of people who stand in the way of doorways or aisles in public spaces

    Wow she’s cute!

    Slap someone’s phone out of their hand when they’re watching or listening to music out of loud with no headphones

    “Just try it, buddy.”
    Why am I always itching to get provoked into a fight? Why? I don’t want that…

    I don’t have intrusive thoughts. I don’t have an internal dialogue.

    Blissful and silent.

    I can’t tell you. I don’t even feel confident telling a therapist. Make of that what you will.

    It is ridiculously easy to make triethylaluminium. Any idiot can do it. It’s hypergolic to oxygen and any potential oxidizer / oxygen lender regardless of temperature, including water. It’s like napalm and fluorine had a baby, a profound incendiary. Most things this dangerous would require a decent laboratory to make, not to mention a comprehensive understanding of organic chemistry, but TEA is about as complicated as making whiskey.

    So far I haven’t tried to make it (read: burned my house down), but it’s just… always there.

    Saving that one for the nursing home I suppose.

    I dont feel like getting banned again. Sorry man. I have some rather wild thoughts that I tend to keep to myself for good reasons

    Intrusive Thoughts=/=Impulsive Thoughts, and it’s annoying that people have combined the 2.

    An Impulsive Thought is “I wonder what would happen if I did something socially unacceptable” for 5 seconds before it passes and never comes up again.

    Intrusive Thoughts are “I wonder what would happen if I killed this annoying person sleeping right next to me?” and having it happen multiple times over and over and over again with detailed scenarios about and after the act.

    As someone who deals with actual intrusive thoughts, I can’t actually post most of them due to Reddit’s ToS. Not something I’d ever do, but I literally only have partial control over my own thought processes sometimes.

    Depends mostly on the time of day.

    When I wake up it’s mostly “I want to die”. I often need time to get out of bed and shake off those thoughts.

    When I’m at work and I end up some calls, it’s mostly “I could follow you after work one day, catch you unprepared and beat the shit out of you” but it’s mostly for one person who kinda deserves it.

    Sometimes in the evening I have positive intrusive thoughts. Like I’ll be doing something and pause suddenly thinking “it ain’t so bad, it’s even good sometimes”.

    But then at night it circles back to “fuck it I should jump in front of a train someday before it’s too late and I get dementia or something”

    Have had a few…

    Get a SAM (surface to air missile) and paint a military aircraft to see their reaction. Not with the intention of shooting it down, just to get someone’s heart rate up.

    What would it be like to “yeet” someone out of a window?

    I have a lot of bad intrusive thoughts. I have just enough control to not go through with it!

    Sex. Imagining people. Like the bosses at work. Or, like “Does old Mrs such-a-who from next door still do it?”

    And then I feel dirty.

    I think about all the people who have pissed me off. Then I remind myself that living well is the best revenge.

    I should put a gun to my head and pull the trigger. It’s always the same too, a big revolver to the right side of my head.

    Also, the standard “Why am I waiting at this red light, there’s a perfectly good field I could cut across real easy and cut two minutes off my trip” comes up a lot.

    Also also the standard stuff about kissing the pretty woman or slapping her ass. I’ve never done it, but the thought persists.

    I’m good on tattling on my self but I will say on the insurance front. I haven’t owned anything that wasn’t 7 plus years old and typical they’re if the shit box variety. Anyway a have said for years that they shouldn’t give a guy like me insurance because I’ll let you hit me! It’s a shit box I gave 500 for 5 years ago, don’t test me!

    “What if I punched that guy right now?”

    “Is that guy stalking me? Does he think I’m evil?”

    “What if I grabbed that girl’s ass right now?”

    “What if I screamed at the top of my lungs right now?”

    And it gets worse from there.

    It’s been six months since one of my first three thoughts when I pick up a knife is putting it across my arm.

    It’s bad, but it’s just as bad for my health and safety to talk to a doctor sincerely about this.
