So I keep thinking about hurting myself in a very specific way, and it’s clearly a hugely irrational thought.
I cut my fingers down from the fingertip to the palm, cutting down to the bone. Then with that done I peel my flesh from my fingers leaving just the bones. This is the really irrational part, I then watch in amazement as I move my fingers (just the bones) like some sort of skeleton in a movie. So the question I have is it better to have such a serious SI fantasy that I clearly know is impossible. Or would it be better if I had something less violent idea but something that would be possible. This question assumes that I have some control over what goes on in my head but I really don’t. On a final note please don't try this at home----PLEASE and I'm not going to do this today, or tomorrow.. hopefully never... |

I think it would be best not to have thise thoughts. But given my normaly semirational state probally better to have fantaises that are impossible. But I fear that one day the impossible won't seem that way

Mike, I'm sorry that you are having these SI fantasies. Are you in therapy?

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
