The violent thoughts when you're near others always worries me. I have millions of flashes. Like chucking a workmate infront of that bus when we're casually walking to the pub, or when the missus is driving I just envisage grabbing the wheel and steering us both into the path of a lorry. (I sometimes sit on my hands when she's driving now).

If I get worse in the next 8 years I'll definately send you a PM (if you haven't flipped out and stabbed half your town).


The few times they've happened actually scared the shit right out of me, I was half way there to pushing them and pulling the wheel...I wasn't actually going to mention that part but seeing as you've bought it up...

It's a date, although I have got around twenty people on a mental shit list so we'll see how it goes...

Something else I have is Twitches, they get worse the more an ' episode ' is kicking in...

Honestly...I've never spoken this much about this as people judge you for it, the older I get the less I care what people think but still, it plays on your mind, I'm half happy to talk about it and half dubious as I don't want to be seen as " A fucking Mental " who " Needs help " but it does feel good to share it with peopleother than close friends and the Missus' half of my family know what I'm like but I've never discussed it with them, they just see it as me and sort of accept it due to it ' running in the family '...

I understand it was a bit insensitive.

But asking about a possible mental condition on an internet forum?

Well, say what you like, I'm glad I'm not the only one.
For some reason, though, the sounds I get are either a) fresh out of eraserhead, or b) sirens.

The destructive daydreams are fairly common, I'm told, although I've not actually met anyone else that admits to them, so Karma to the both of youse loons.

I get the visions of hurting people with things, I thought it was normal as I've never acted upon these things.

I don't mean like when you purposefully imagine something, more like what Adam describes, see heavy blunt object, see missus/friend/randomer and all sorts of twisted violence occurs clearly in my head.

Helps keep me sane I reckon.

I was always told that many people hear voices and have impulses to do random and dangerous things, but it is rarely a problem unless you act on them...

They're called taboo impulses... I remember talking to pabbers about this on the drive to Hetzers.

Essentially, your mind knows what is wrong/danger/damaging, and likes to run simulations.

My ones tend to run into;

Vividly seeing me hospitalising people I'm talking to... and I mean nasty beat downs

Getting the urge to kiss men I'm sat with in a vaguely intimate way (ie sat together watching a film)

Wanting to jump off of bridges

Wanting to swing my bike into oncoming traffic

Vividly seeing myself destroying my laptop/glass whatever

Stabbing myself with things.

The whole gamut really.

I realised long ago this didn't mean anything particularly dodgy, as long as I could control it. But when you;re talking to your Grandma or mum and you can vividly see yourself staving their head in with the spade that's sat next to you... it gets a bit disturbing.

Fuck it, who wants to be sane Mr. Green

So by that conclusion I should see a shrink...



I suppose I should have added the caveat that a person with these conditions should see a quack if those events are detrimentally effecting that persons life/well being/relationships etc but as you seem to be doing ok and haven't buried or eaten any bodies yet then business as usual I'd say.

I've had the violent imagery before, I have actually mentioned it on here before ages ago in another thread and I remember a lot of other people saying then that it was something that occured to them as well. There's loads of incidents but one was where I was standing in my office and the Managing Director was holding a meeting with some VIPs and I had just made a fresh scolding hot tea, and my hand jerked forward a bit as I was imagining saying "Oi, Geoff!" and as he turned around dashing the scolding hot liquid right in his face, then I started giggling to myself and the VIPs looked at me funny and so I went and sat down.

I've been stood having a convo with a friend once and all of a sudden he jerked his hand towards me with a clenched fist, I was like WTF you doing? He said sorry mate, I just had an overwhelming urge to punch you right in the fucking face then, he had trouble explaining it but then I laughed and said ah I know what you mean, we then exchanged stories and realised again that it's more common than you'd like to think. I don't worry about it as long as I'm not actually doing these things then where's the harm.

EDIT: Found the original thread here:

https://www.bikechatforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=152851&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight

This was of course when I was fairly new here and wasn't accustomed to Warped spouting constant and utter shite all the time.

Wouldn't bother me one iota, although it's helpful knowing this stuff since I'm likely to meet you at this Quatt meet, as the "Staring" thing would have set my internal alarm bells ringing, as is only natural really, but now I know, I'll just remind myself that you mean no harm........or are about to stuff a claw hammer into my skull Laughing Wink Thumbs Up

Oh yeah I had one of those the other day.

I imagined that I had a huge knife, with the tip touching my eyeball. And I was relying on the cat that i was holding next to it, not to move.

Well firstly, sorry to the OP for sort of derailing his thread...

Secondly, after talking about issues on here and reading the replies I've concluded you lot are a right bunch of ' loony ' bastards, I didn't mean to bring others out of the woodwork, nice to know I'm not alone though...Thank you Karma

( I've always asked people that comment on my, let's call it a ' condition ', how do they know I'm not ' sane ' and that they're the ones with a problem, normally shuts them up as they try to work it out...Also the words with '...' around them are there because that's how people read/speak, I hate labels, but those are the words that people associate with this/these ' condition/s ' )...

I also always look ready to go to war when I'm walking alone. Doesn't matter if I'm just nipping to buy some milk... Probably saved me a lot of agro in my past.

Just a small thing, and going for some of the other miserable nutters...

One cheap thing to check out is vitamin B...


Not just drinking heavily, I think Carl Sagan proposed fortifying all the foodstuffs in the middle east with it because he figured they had a B-vit deficient diet and the effects on brain function were why they couldn't help from getting needlessly wound up and kicking seven shades out of each other all the time... And good levels of them are necessary for proper foetal mental development in pregnancy so there may be something in it. (Also helps with iron absorbtion, and having enough of that about is a good thing for dealing with stress if only to keep the oxygen flowing and your mind alert)


Bagger ... Though the details are sparse it sounds like you're in the sort of spot I found myself suffering a few years back, and in a more mild way from time to time since. As far as I can tell, it's the outer stages of clinical depression (fairly justified if your life's on the skids no matter how hard you graft). Keeping yourself busy with positive things in whatever "off" time you have can help, and keeping up with mates and family. Sharing your troubles for one thing and knowing there's someone who you can lean on - even if they can't actually do anything concrete to help - is valuable. Also if you can have them agree to kick your arse if you seem to be crawling into a hermit shell and getting suicidal, which is even better.

Doesn't always work though, so having a word with your GP and seeing if there's an NHS councellor you can talk to would be worth a shot. They can check you out generally whilst you're there too and make sure it's not actually something physical (thyroid, dietary deficiencies, other disorders)... this may require a blood test, mind. And though the implications, outcomes and severity of the situation for everyone is different, they may put you on some (hopefully temporary) antidepressants. I got a bit paranoid at it all when I was prescribed them when really the root of what was going on was a shit job and arguments with my mum - and the councellor helped with some of that (though I never did get her to come in for the agreed group session), as did quitting the stupid grind in favour of something lower paid and less reliable, but far less soul crushing, so I never actually took any of them. But they're still at the back of the cupboard just in case.
