“Would you rather live as a monster or die as a good man?”
– Shutter Island
I hear constant voices telling me to do bad things. They excel
at distressing me by putting violent and sexual images in my head. But why are
they so distressing and if they are ‘just thoughts’, then why can I not simply
brush them aside?
They are crippling because I am basically unable to even
try and comprehend a situation that is out of my comfort zone for fear of them occurring.
The question is am I worried that what the voices are saying
is what I want to do, and if so does that mean that I’m a monster?
Could the way that I act now simply be a controlled,
watered-down version of the real me, which is really lurking under the surface waiting
to break through when backed into a corner – even if it's a psychological one?
