Is there a specific person who has wronged you in order for you to feel this aggression? It's not the right way to hurt other people - no matter how suicidal you may be.

Thoughts that you won't act upon or is it driving you to actually plan to commit? Violence towards another out of grief or pain is not an acceptable action. In immediate defense of one's self or against the harm of another is. You have bodily autonomy so what you do to yourself is your right and not my business. If you want to harm someone else and don't think you can prevent it, seek local help or turn yourself in.

My advice may sound cheesy, but figure out the internal root cause that is pushing your anger and sadness. It may have something to do with your past.

It depends. If it's more of an "intrusive thoughts" type of urge, then that's one thing. If it's a "true" urge (like you actually want to kill someone, literally), then that's a different problem. Like Julgran mentioned, is there someone who badly wronged you? Is this feeling directed towards one specific person (or a few people)?


Either way, I would HIGHLY recommend seeking help from a therapist, especially if it's "true" homicidal urges. It's never ok to hurt others. So please, no matter how tempted you may be to hurt someone, please don't. Not only would you have hurting an innocent person (taking them from their loved ones even) on your conscience, but you'd be put in jail. That would be worse than your current circumstances.

Also, another thing is that, in a way, it can be normal to feel the urge to kill. What I mean is that in a moment of anger, if someone badly wronged you, you may feel an urge to beat them up or even end their life…but you don't "ACTUALLY" want to hurt them. It's just a weird feeling of hatred (think comedy shows where it shows the character fantasizing about killing their asshole boss). It's not great to think that stuff though. Hopefully you can understand what I mean when I say this vs the other 2 things I mentioned above.

Again, please seek help. I wish you the best.

Well if the urge feels very strong and you feel like it is hard to not hurt someone when you feel that way, the best thing to do for yourself would be to talk to a professional. Giving into this urge would negatively affect your life very significantly, which you probably already know. Only a professional can help you with this kind of thing.

I've had the urge for years. I'll spend some time nearly every day fantasizing about it. None of my therapists considered it a problem, prefering to treat my depression.

Hard to not be depressed when you can't look at a person without imagining yourself cutting off their head and using it as a sex toy.

Mine is OCD and anger towards the world.

I think you should talk to a therapist. I've heard that this can potentially be corrected with medicine. It's worth a try at least

I felt this way when I was a teenager before I realized most people aren't self aware, they are products of their indoctrination so I stopped taking stuff so personally. I'm still no beacon of light but just try to target my hate against the evil people who are very self aware of the harm they are doing rather than just lash out at some random person who attacked me when they were drunk. Because they'd been taught no better. Whilst the spoiled person who encourages, eggs these idiots on to do these things is working their corrupt mind as a lawyer to gey them out of prison to use them again or put them in prison so they can steal their partner.
Plenty of bad bad people in this world and its a shame when people explode it tends to be not so bad people who take the blast.

This isn't CHEESY!! Studies have shown there is always an emotion behind the anger... we need to ask ourselves what that emotion is and where it is coming from....

What emotion is behind that anger and where is it coming from? In addition, focus on the word forgiveness for a few moments and see where that thought leads you.

oh hell yes, homicidal ideation goes right along with my suicidal ideation like pb&j haha its bounced around for ages, you are not alone there chief earliest thoughts are of wanting to kill my dad and older brother (obviously never acted upon these) but yup still there, i have silent murderous ragess and they are often

For me fantasies work...When I opened up to a "professional", got a lot of judgement and no help, but I don't think that's always and shouldn't be the case, hope it goes well for you if you decide for that. Music helps me too.

Channel it into something creative or vent it at people that actually deserve it (not ones that trigger you because of your own problems of which there are numerous here for me)

 

[Lifeless mindset]

I get the same urges. I feel like discovering the root of the issue and attacking it with full force is an effective way to deal with it. I hope sooner or later you won't have to deal with those thoughts anymore
