Is it normal that i like looking at dead bodies?

Lately, I've been viewing looking at either gore or photographs of dead bodies. So, I guess I'm morbid. Should I be worried about myself?

    You should be worried about yourself depending on the reason why you're viewing these images. However, humans are curious animals, so if you're curious about death and dead bodies, then it would only make sense that you'd want to investigate. Just remember to balance it out with something happy.

    No, that's kind of fucked up really.

    On a related note, have you ever heard of rotten.com? There was some pretty gory stuff on there before.

      I used to go on rotten quite often. Its been years though. I recently found the body farm and watched a time lapse video of a decomposing human. Pretty nifty. Ever watch faces of death?

      I'm not the op, just sayin ;p

        I think I've heard of that one. I don't think I've seen it though, and not sure if I want to really... Lol

    It depends on why you like looking at them. Curiosity? Healthy. Pleasure? Not very much. (Though both may be common, one is not normal, just as in the sense mental illness is not normal but is common)
    When you look at these pictures, do you crave them? ('them' = situations in which you are the cause of the death, touching the body and/or an innate urge to have it.) Not healthy. (Though personally I'm one to speak. But hey, do as I say, not as I do, right?)
    As others have mentioned, great gore material can be found at documenting reality, and at my personal favorite- goregrish.
    Just take care of yourself, use your moral compass, or otherwise your commonsense.
    Happy browsing.

    So do I. It would be a dream come true to explore the Body Farm. I look at all the gore stuff I want at www.documentingreality.com

      Human decomposition isn't really my thing. Just looking at those rotting flesh really makes me lose my lunch because I can always instantly imagine what it smells like.

      And I too use Documenting Reality but it has its view limits. Luckily, I have a way to bypass that restriction.

    I was looking at mouth cancer internet pictures not even five minutes ago :P abnormalities are interesting.

      Strangely, I can look at gore videos/pictures without any cringing at all but maggot videos really gross me out for some reason. I don't even know why.

      D:

      • I know right? *shudder* I don't know why either. Those are the only videos I have seen that truly gross me out.

    Oh, I actually forgot to mention. I only look at these because I find it intriguing. Sometimes, I just want to see how much my gut can stand before puking. So far, I haven't yet.
