Death Thoughts DailysteemCreated with Sketch.

I woke up this morning thinking about people being turned inside out... their intestines, Brains, and other internal organs showing and scattered all around. Only problem, I had no idea of how to communicate the pictures in my head, in words on this blog.

Then, I found this.

Thank the godsessess for art...

I present the art of Andrea Hasler.

Pretty cool, but I think you need therapy : )

Thank you! Actually, I am studying to become a therapist. :)

You will probably be a very good one!

Thank you! I really think that it is important to face the things we fear. Hence, Death Thoughts Daily. A bit of me trying to get over slight thantophobia.

I looked for a something-phobia name for it once, but could not find anything. I know that it is a relatively common phobia though and that is I have a fear of when I'm on top of a tall building that I will be compelled to throw myself off the thing. It does not keep me from going to the top of a building or high places, but it does seem to be growing slowly. However, suicide never crosses my mind. I also have a thought that if I were ever falling with a group of others to grab one and use myself as a cushion for that person so that one of us would survive. I'm too old to think there is something wrong with me for having these thoughts. They are just a small sampling of what goes on in what is left of my mind : )

Actually, what you describe is completely normal human phenomena. Scientists think it is your brain’s response to cognitive dissonance and self preservation. Here are a couple internet articles I found, while looking really quick...

Thank you! I'll check them out.

Those closeup shots look pretty gross.

Still not close to my brain picturing decapitations and disembowlments at 4am.
