When I watch TV and see people being physically abused, I can't help but think how nice it must be to do the same, to hurt someone so much that they're like temporarily crippled, in a sense (either physically or emotionally, but not permanently scar them though) and then tenderly nurse them until they're okay again.
But then, the rest of the time I wish that instead of physically and emotionally dominating someone else, I was the one who was completely dependent on someone else (perhaps not being beaten in the same way) but otherwise, like a child.
Is this kind of split mentality normal?
I'm guessing not. But, if not, what should I do about it? I feel like it affects my relationships, even the less emotionally/physically intimate ones. Sometimes I'm really coarse with people, to the point of being condescending but other times I feel really clingy and I get anxious about being alone and when I am with other people, I have this insatiable desire for attention/affection.
He's back
i think you should talk to someone about this, probably a counselor or therapist. This sort of thinking is not good/healthy for you or anyone else. If you go down that road, it will only become worse for you.Calm down and think through it

I have to go see a counselor soon, so I'll discuss it with them then, thanks
Chill out. Smoke some pot. Many people have those thoughts. I myself have thought of many of the same things. Bad thoughts about family, friends, dumb people in general. Maybe you should workout. Or change your diet. Keep an eye on the positive side of things. Meditate once In a while. And allow those thoughts to bubble up. Then really address the reason for each person you want to hurt. Or why you would want to hurt them. The people who build up those thoughts are the ones who act them out. It's all about aversion brother. Stay strong.
