I love the idea of getting seriously injured - 44% Normal

For some reason i just love the idea of getting seriously injured or getting infected by some virus. I always hope for the worst. For example, if i twist my ankle, and the doctor says it might be broken, i would be so excited and tell everyone! Now i've never actually broken a bone, or been infected with some huge virus, but is there something wrong with me? Is it normal?
Do you think it's normal?

You know sometimes I do this too. I think its because we seek attention or something. We think of ways that would make people really care for us because we are in some kind of pain, but we're too chicken to actually fling ourselves under the bus so to speak. HEHE. Keep on daydreamin its what makes you who you are.
I do it all the time.
It definatly helps at the time
You're more relaxed.
Sure it doesn't help forever , but what really does help forever.
I'm guilty of doing this too. My life is really boring, so I think I just want something interesting to happen, so I have a story to tell, or to see how many people really care about me.
I got injured several years ago in school. I dislocated my shoulder and had to wear a sling for several weeks. I loved being injured and walking around with my sling, but after awhile it became boring and I tossed the sling and acted like everything was back to normal. Unfortunately it wasn't, and for the next 10 years I would spontaneously dislocate both shoulders almost every week or two. This pain is indescribable...if I could sit and reflect on all the pain I've had from my dislocated shoulders over the years, I would weep and weep and weep for a very long time.
I also fell and hit my head once, and woke up with paramedics all around me. It was exciting - wow...these were real paramedics talking to ME...but then the seizures started happening. (Don't hit your head EVER) Over the years I became quite familiar with paramedics and waking up in the ER with intravenous tubes in my arm, etc. I woke up with paramedics around me many, many times. The 'fun' element of epilepsy quickly wore off and I would say to anyone who thinks getting injured is fun: it's not, and you don't want to be.
