You would think it would make me feel better to know that every person has intrusive thoughts. But it doesn't at all, quite the opposite.
Yall are as crazy as I am, we are doomed.

You’ve never been near a ledge and thought, "what if I jumped?"
Never thought about dipping a finger in the blender or light socket?
Never thought of or touched something that you knew was way too hot?
Yes. All the time, and worse options besides. But there's no temptation to do those things. It`s more like I'm being reminded that those are options, that nothing besides my own will -- and the fact that I am in control of my body -- prevents me from doing them. It's scary. I hate it.
The part I don't get is the idea that other people claim to have voices urging them to do these things.
Do you have an inner monologue? Some people don’t and that’s okay but a lot of people do have a "voice" for their conscious thoughts.
But the other thing you described is intrusive thoughts. We think, "This is a thing I could do" and we mostly don’t do them bc we think about the consequences and our inhibitions kick in.
Yes, I have inner monologue. And yes I know what I am describing is intrusive thoughts.
I think if you're hearing actual voices urging you to do things that's a condition that should be addressed, that's not normal.
I am not hearing voices urging me to do things, don't worry :P
The call of the void. Super common and pretty interesting.
And it's always calling…
