I have a fascination with death. Many times I relate death or murder to romance, sexuality, and excitement. I feel as though life is very precious, and I have the utmost respect for people's lives and well-being, and I would never want to see anyone suffer.
However, the thoughts remain in my mind every day. Does anyone else have these fantastical deviant feelings like me?
What should I do?

I feel there is a difference between fascination and obsession - do you feel these thoughts are affecting your ability to function? Its not unusual to think about death often - there are plenty of things to remind us of our mortality. I certainly don't think popular music or television shows etc help, death has been somewhat glamorised, made into something its not. All i can suggest is that if you find these thoughts troubling please seek out a therapist and work through this problem with them. All the best.

Generally I think there is more cause for concern with any adult who doesn't have death close to their mind at all times.
Thanks for this!

Well, for what it's worth to you. I have already died once and thee is no sexuality, excitement or romance involved. There is peace and so much love that you feel like you could soak it up with a sponge. I had a near death experience and I don't know what you think is there but I'm pretty sure it isn't at all what you think. If your thoughts are deviant or troubling the perhaps you should see a therapist. I wish you well.
Thanks for this!

How? What do thoughts like these look like?

Also, how old are you out of curiosity? I feel like there were a number of times I've felt like I was thinking something dark or deviant others avoided and decided instead to embrace it. It's part of growing up really. It sounds almost like the prototype of any psychological growth at all.

Don't be afraid of even the darkest things you will think. Find no shock, or horror, or guilt, and I think all such thoughts soften, because you are thinking softly. Dark thoughts are often just punishment anyway: dark pictures you show yourself to frighten yourself. Nothing is wrong with you and it doesn't mean anything. The dark pictures JUST ARE the thoughts that something is wrong with you and that you have reason to fear, and as you think, you see. Think softly, and they will go, just as a child is reassured by the love of a parent from a nightmare.
