Obsession resulting in "evil" intentions?

Post Reply New Topic

Did any of your obsessions in the past (or present) result in seemlingly "evil" intentions? I quoted the word because I don't think its really evil its just that you are caught up in your obsessions and not thinking about what you are actually doing.

Here's my example. I often have obsession with statistics and numbers and during the SARS epidemic, I had some "evil" intentions. My family just came back from Hong Kong after visiting family and we were pretty much the last people that didn't need to quarantine. So I was obsessed with hearing about people getting infected and stuff and maybe this was my imagination, but I thought I felt a little bit of coughing and so I thought I had SARS. I remember I was at church (an area that was crowded) and I think I may have purposely coughed without covering my mouth, and feeling "power and control" hoping to hear that my deliberate spreading of SARS had an impact on the statistics. I felt really bad some time afterwards because it felt like I was attempting to infect as much people as possible all because of my obsesssion with hearing that people got infected. This was in grade 7. I don't think i ended up actually infected with SARS. It was probably just my imagination.

You could say that my carnal desires do scare away quite a few women, amazes me how Amy puts up with me as a friend sometimes.

My Austin Powers obsession did that to me. I became so caught up in it, that I became him, along with his Mojo.

I became so obbsessed with Alice and Wonderland that i started to believe I was the Mad Hatter, then I developed mind controlling devices and wreaked havoc on the city of Gotham as I tried to make my fantasy a reality. I stole peoples minds and used them to live out my own thoughts, only Batman could stop me.

Numerous occasions, Batman would foil my plans, until eventualy he caught me and sent me to Arkham Asylum. I was still convinced I was the Mad Hatter, I thought everyone else was mad for not realising this. I used my Mind control skills to escape from the hospital numerous times, but everytime I did, Batman would stop me.

It took me years to get over my obbsession, in many ways it completely ruined my life.

This thread is filling up with win very quickly.

Meerkats are my number one special intrest. When the local zoo finaly got them again, I had my mum ask me how I could interact with them. They made us wait over and hour only to give us a phone number of the people who make the zoo rules. My mum puts off calling it because she knows if they say no, I will have my most epic of epic meltdowns and probably have another nervous breakdown. I wanted to key the meerkat keeper's car and all sorts of horrible nasty things.

Everyone keeps telling me to be a zoo keeper but you have to go to college and have a degree, I may not be able to finish college because of various learning disabilites and crippling panic attacks. And even if I did become a zookeeper, you don't get to pick the animals you work with and I'd be insanley jelous of the person who did.

In the past I've been obsessed with serial killers and more specifically, the methods of murder and body disposal that were used. I had no evil intentions but due to my constant talking about it, people thought that I was going to become a murderer and practically banned me from my obsession - either that or the other option was to go into hospital, and I was NOT doing that.
