Thoughts that control me.
5 Comments

There is something weird that has been happening to me in the last 2 years. I have involuntary thinking and acting. If something pops into my mind I have to say it or do it. I can't keep it in because then I feel like I'm going to explode. One time after my daughter was born a thought popped into my mind to cover her face with a blanket. I didn't do it. I told my boyfriend about it. It's dangerous stuff like that that happens. when I drive, I want to swerve into the other lane because my mind is telling me to. or to drive into a ditch. this cannot be normal can it? it if not, what could be wrong with me?
Do you think it's normal?

It is good that you realize this could be a problem. It IS a problem, especially if these thoughts actually come as some form of urges. Apparently you're having some problems with some stressful situations, and it's bothering you to extremes at inappropriate times later on. Seek consultation and treatment, and be cooperative and accepting of their advice. Question things that you don't understand, because I'm sure that confusion stresses anyone. As long as you remain willing to help yourself, I'm sure others will be more willing to help you out too.

Please listen to your heart and do not hurt anyone.

i have the same thing but i don't feel as compelled to do it.
it may have something to do with Tourette syndrome. you don't have ticks, it sounds like. but if you feel the need to do these things, it's unusual and it would probably help to talk to a professional about them. it's not you making the choice, it's the feeling and your mind. you realize it's bad, and that's a good thing. ^^

It is wise to seek some help. Go to a therapist
They will help you. You should be in charge of your actions.
