While I appreciate your willingness to give me a book on something I already know how to do, I doubt it will be of much use to me.
that is a lame list of "exciting" sports.
by Thrill KillAccording to the psychologist it actually does have to do with sociopathy (AsPD), and my upbringing apparently. Since he's with the one the degree in psychology, I'll take his word over yours.
Why do you assume I haven't done extreme sports?
I've played all kinds of sports - basketball, soccer, tennis, squash, horseback riding, dirt bike riding, abseiling, rock climbing, martial arts and drag racing (though, I did that last one illegally).
I'm not sure what getting out of my country has to do with anything. I'm quite content to stay in my own country and travel around. I've already seen quite a few places here in Australia due to having lived in three different states, but there is still more I would like to see. That won't be happening until sometime after my daughter leaves home though.
by Thrill KillAs many of you know by now, I have an obsession with murder.
While I don't consider it wrong to kill people, I'm aware that my obsession is a very unhealthy one. It's a path to self-destruction that may one day land me behind bars.
This obsession I have is similar to a drug addiction. Murder is all I can think about sometimes.
I discovered a long time ago that I have some impulse control issues, so unless I want to end up in prison, I have to avoid situations where I know there's a very high chance that I will act on impulse again.
While I don't have an issue with murder itself, I do wish I wasn't obsessed with it. The problem is, I don't know how not to be.
Do any of you have an addiction or an obsession with something/someone?
Have you tried to find alternative ways to deal with it? If yes, how did that work out for you?
If you don't have an obsession or addiction yourself, then how would you deal with someone who does?
Oh to skate the ice so thin between what could be and 'shouldn't' be. Hear that temptation calling? You better be careful. In my experience obsessions are relentless and it takes a strong person to resist consistently, but how much resisting is suppression of need or nature? How healthy can that be? Not so healthy for your victim, I suppose unless you were motivated by say, an act curiosity or mercy or vengence. Whatever the justification you choose, if you cannot rid yourself of it, then the only way to quiet the need is to indulge it. Maybe that's bad advice but oh well. We all have a darkness about us. Sometimes it's hard not to imagine the knife through someone's throat and the ensuing blood and convulsion but we don't do it because they haven't earned it. And those who have, well, the imagination soars.
