Does anyone have the urge to say nasty things or the worst possible thing?

Sometimes at some serious function, like a funeral, inside my head I am screaming "she was a prostitute, she was a promiscuous person". But it's some nice old lady or something who was in no way like that. I just have these overwhleming urges to say the worst thing possible.

I actually checked into Turrets at one point since I always want to scream something foul.

It's like a constant battle to keep myself from saying something bad to people or talking about certain topics.

I was wondering if it's just me.

No............it is not just you. From what you are telling here on this post, you are describing Tourette Syndrome. The thoughts are there, and eventutally the outburst will follow. The only thing that baffles me, is you are not experienceing tics. This could be anything from shrugging shoulders, blinking eyes, nodding head. I am not saying you have Tourrets, but I would most definately talk to a physican about it if it becomes so you can't suppress it. Might be an embarrasing situation you get yourself into! I know 3 differnt people with Tourrets and only one of them will bust out with a few unchoice words. The other two have totally different tics. Cool

No Tics

I have no tics, which is what made me move on from Tourettes when I was researching it. I can always control it, but I don't know where it comes from.

I have gotten myself in a few minor problems when I would say something inappropriate, but I've never said anything outright rude that I was thinking.

Sometimes I think of things just for the sake of then thinking about how someone would react. Once I was being interviewed by a male president of a company and his female daughter employee. I kept wanting to say "stupid blah blah, you are a dumb stupid prostitute" just to see how she would react. Would she kick me out immediately, what would she say....stuff like that.

My self defense mechanism is to just be quiet. I'm pretty quiet now, but inside I am thinking awful things.
