Anyone else do really stupid stuff sometimes?

[Olimar]

Don't know what is wrong with my brain. I get the idea to do something, won't be able to shift it, until I actually follow it through and so it.

So my latest was to cut of all my hair with the kitchen scissors last night. But other times it's been far stupider stuff, sometimes to the point where I could have died. I regret it afterwards slightly, when I see what a bad decIsion it was. But at the time I don't see that at all. And actually part of me doesn't care much either.

It's not all the time, but definitely doing it a lot right now. Am I the only one?

Yes, I was like this a lot. I did a few rounds of DBT which helped.
What is good remember is that ' thoughts are not facts'.

I also cut all my hair off with a kitchen scissors recently. I was feeling depressed and just had this feeling that I wanted reconnect with the authentic me.

I'm afraid of heights because I think I might jump just to know what would happen 🥺
Not quite the same and I can't give an example but I know I have it in me to listen to that voice and have done. Like saying something I know I shouldn't say.

I get all kinds of weird, obsessive sometimes very dangerous ideas. I don't (usually) act on them any more because I'm on medication and seeing a psychologist regularly.
Do you also have periods of depression where you're really low and exhausted and don't get ideas to do anything?
I'm asking as I have a diagnosis of bipolar. And the tumbling, crazy ideas occur when I'm in a manic phase.

BTW this is NOT intended as an internet diagnosis at all. I'm just raising the idea. I would definitely tell a doctor regardless and see what a professional has to say. Especially as you say some of your ideas are putting you in danger. Good luck

Yes I do get depression sometimes too and don't do anything let alone any stupid stuff. Don't worry though the doctors are aware, you don't end up in hospital 3 times in 2 weeks with no one noticing
