I have found that going through hard times brings a large bounty when I have learned to "deal" with the reality that I had avoided.
I see more and more everyday that there are actions I can take to be a more adventurous guy.
Adventure to me covers all aspects of life. I can be adventurous by testing peoples emotions.
I can tease people and run as fast as I can, hoping they don't have a gun.
I can go to a mental shack and help with the patients.
Scarier still, my mind drifts into helping out the most depraved individuals until I share their view on life, and they share mine.
I really want to go to prison. Just to see if it really will change me, and if so how.
I have a view that being a masochist can be good for you if you are strong enough to recover

It sounds like you are a "sensation seeker." This is an actual behavioral condition, and it can be a "mutually reinforcing activity", in that a positive affect on the seeker results in the repetition of the activity. Here are a couple of links where you can test your "sensation seeking" disposition:

When I was younger I used to drive too fast, drink too much, and engage in other risky behavior. As I got older, I took up flying, scuba diving, and became a surgical tech - all more acceptable versions of sensation-seeking. There are ways of seeking "stress" as a sensation of challenge and excitement that are more constructive than the ones that you are trying out. And there are even worse ways, as well.
