so i often find myself imagining my death for no real reason. it doesn't have fear attached to it, just like a movie playing in my head.. for example, when i'm driving over an overpass i'll see myself driving straight off the side, crashing into an agricultural field full of cows. or when i'm walking down the street, i'll think about being shot in the head from out of the blue. Or a bus will wreck into me and it'll be all nice and gory. i dont know if this is "normal" .. but does this happen to other people...
When I hear a plane or a copter flying outside, I always think about it crashing into the house or dropping bombs. I'm not gonna say these thoughts are fear free though.
I do the same thing, sarah. I think it just has something to do, (for me), with being aware of what could happen. a little morbid, yes, but its just one of those things. I amnot a morbid person by any means.
I had a whole period of my life fantasizing my death by gun wound. I grew up middle class, but I've experienced some instances of extreme violence when young. Now all of that is gone.
WL, wha? Cate- well at least im not the only one good. i feel the same... its like, i want to be ready for any situation...
Daydreaming is perfectly normal and even healthy; the content whether positive or negative doesn’t not reflect upon you as a person Hotwater
Oh, your avatar picture reminds me of one of my favorite cartoons ever! The girl gargoyle was the first love of my life.
I hate to be the bad guy here, but such morbid thoughts reflect on your psyche same as a Rorschach Test. Maybe you could talk to someone. Well I guess you are.
Yeah, this sometimes happens to me too but I also imagine good things happening as well as everything inbetween. There could be other explanations other then a reflection of the psyche, such as it being the experiencing of simultaneous multiple realities or just mental simulations in preparation of if something like that actually happened.
we all have twisted thoughts, pink. I think it's healthy to realize that terrible things can happen to us. in the sheltered lives most people lead these days it can sometimes be strange and maybe difficult to imagine something happening to ourselves, realize that it's possible, just like it happened to those people you read about in the papers.
my imagination lives in the world i would rather be. there is no normal. there is only sanity, which is the avoidance of stumbling over your emotional shoelaces. =^^= .../\...
I used to think, when I was a child, what was going to happen with my toys after I died, how they'd be lying in a garbage can somewhere...lol...
Now that is kinda creepy. ^^ Sad too. If I thought about crashing my car while driving..... well it just might happen 'cause I'm OCD like that and I'd start having a panic attack. That's why I don't drive.
I have goliath, brooklyn, and bronx the evil dog gargoyle thing as action figures the gargoyles were the best
It happens to me sometimes, not in a suicidal way (I've been there, I'd know if they were) or wishing it on anyone, more like after you see a movie and something reminds you of it, but without the movie. When I was a kid my school had a glass roof near the entrance and I'd picture it crashing down all the time, not nessicarily on me though.
