I seriously think I may need psychiatric help. I was depressed while ago and then something inside me snapped and I've been like this ever since. I'm scared but at the same time I have this grin that won't leave my face. I may just try to go to sleep and see how I feel when I get up. Have I gone crazy?
I've had that before myself, many times.
Do you feel like you've gone numb, in a way? Like suddenly, nothing matters and tearing up anyone or anything that comes your way sounds great? In that case, hole up for a while until the numbness passes- for me, it comes as quickly as it goes. When it's over, go see someone. If you see them immediately, you may be a danger to yourself and others.
If not, then do what you can to distract yourself. I've had uncontrollable laughter coupled with extremely violent motives arising in my head...in that case, stay away from society in general until it passes.
The texture of salmon bones sitting in a soupy mix for ages is still in my mouth and crunching in between my teeth--it was like a mixture in between chalk, salt, and glass. I keep dry-gagging every time I think about it. It was scary to crush nearly an entire salmon spine in my hand, and accidentally having some in my food either--auugh!
I had a severe stimming moment while in the bathroom, I haven't had a real, 'obvious' session of stimming for a long time, and I haven't had a biting one since I was about 3 or 4. For about five minutes, I could not stop biting myself. I've been under a huge amount of stress of late, and over the last few days, I'm losing functionality socially. I can't get myself out of my apartment, not even to my second job, and my last line of defense seems to be how I come off. I asked my roommates about how I've been acting the last few days--they all said that I was normal.
Well, I think I'm going off the deep end, S.Fantom, on the big diving board this time...
I kind of feel like what you described but I won't have violent motives. I do have the same numbness that you mentioned. I thought I good night's sleep would help but I still feel the same way, kind of. I don't intend to hurt anyone though. I think this may just be a new way my mind is coping with the fact that I may never find someone to love me. This feeling scares me but at the same time I love it.
