I read that as 14.95 threads per day.

They came from that seemingly infinite thread on the 6' python eating a little kid.

Perhaps, my friends do say I lack emotions towards anything really. ( and yes I do have a couple of friends in real life but not many ) I also enjoy being alone I work better alone. When I am around people I feel I am constantly thinking about how I have to act towards them ( things like that don't come naturally to me like many other people ) and its makes me mentally exhausted. When I am around family, emotions ( or at least acting out emotions ) don't come naturally so I have to fake emotions ( so they don't think I am weird or something ) even when a family member died I really didn't feel anything about it( so I had to put on an act ).

What vitamin D? I am like the whitest kid in school haha

quote from wiki :

Emotional coldness, detachment or reduced affection. ( true )
Limited capacity to express either positive or negative emotions towards others.( true )
Consistent preference for solitary activities. ( definitely true )
Very few, if any, close friends or relationships, and a lack of desire for such. ( I have one or two but I don't care that I do and I don't care if I lose them )
Indifference to either praise or criticism. ( I ignore both, what does it matter it doesn't affect anything ether way?)
Taking pleasure in few, if any, activities. ( very few is true they are for me : computers photography and a couple others relating to technology, everything else is boring to me )
Indifference to social norms and conventions. ( why would anyone follow social norms? I mean to fit in? but even so whats the point in that? I follow my own ideas )
Preoccupation with fantasy and introspection. ( not sure what this means )
Lack of desire for sexual experiences with another person. ( hate to say it but I just don't see the point in pleasing myself with a woman or anything I mean sure it feels good, but so what? why waste your time with a relationship?)

Yes but you can avoid people if you stay inside .

Hay I have a question: is it normal to think about torturing people and REALLY enjoying doing so? I always think of torturing people for no reason really I just love that feeling that I get from doing so ( in my head of curse ) it feels freakin great. ( I often get urges to kill people and torture them ) is that normal? or not? I really don't know and I don't want to tell any doctors because if it is not normal they might think I am crazy... I often dream and daydream of doing thinks like torturing killing etc... I often have urges to do this as well and sometimes I am scared that I may not be able to control these urges...

if it helps I was in a mental hospital 5 or 6 times when I was little but I don't remember why ( my parents never told me and I never asked...)

I also used to be on a Ton of medical drugs but now I don't take any ( I used to be on 10 or so different meds since age 5 or so until about 2 years ago ( I am 16 years old now )

Those two posts really remind me of myself. I'm in my thirties now, and the best advice I could give would be to study people, learn to act like them, and avoid them whenever possible. School and work are the hardest for me. Feigning interest and remembering to smile and make eye contact can be very draining.

Wanting to torture people is not normal, but neither is wanting to avoid them. I use the fantasies to help me deal with people when I can't avoid them. For example, if someone is telling me something and I'm supposed to smile, I can imagine cutting their eyelid or splitting their tongue and I'll produce a genuine smile. Just don't smile too big and be careful about the eyes, unless you want to scare the person into not talking to you again.

May I ask why?


I find the melting of a rat a little more disturbing than shooting a bird imo

Sounds like we have an MR serial killer in the making...

And to think I couldn't even get past the first murder in American Psycho (he cuts someone's eyeballs open)


This thread's become quite interesting, in a very disturbing sort of way.

Holy crap!

There are some very disturbed people out there…

Seriously, if your only way of dealing with people socially is imagining having to torture them… Get help.
Wow.

You can safely talk to a professional all day long about your fantasies or your mental impulses. They will only want to lock you up if you actually present yourself as a danger to yourself or others. The standard accepted criteria for mental health admission and stabilization due to danger is that the individual presents suicidal or homicidal ideations, has a plan for how to carry out the ideations, and has the actual means available to do so.

Now if you were to tell a professional "I have a fantasy of torturing and killing my parents because of what they did to me when I was a child. I've actually thought about how I would like to use a knife to ... and then ... until .... Then I would get rid of the bodies by doing .... In fact, last week I bought a large knife from the local hunting and outdoors store. I sharpen it every knife almost compulsively before I go to sleep."

Well, three strikes and your out buddy. You described having the thoughts, formalizing them into an actual plan of what you would do, and now you have acquired the means to follow through with your plan. Ding! Ding! Ding! your a winner and your prize is a trip to the local psych hospital for admission and stabilization.

Now it is unknown whether what has been described in this thread is a real problem or just people who have watched too much Dexter enjoying the anonymity of the web. If any of you do actually feel that your thoughts are overbearing and could become a reality then please do seek professional help and support. On the other hand, if your just having fun creeping people out, then maybe you should consider taking up writing short stories or something else because you obviously have some talent.

Either way, the creep-o-meter has been tripped.
