I find my personality very absract compared to my surrounding peers. I have disturbing thoughts about killing/harming others and sometimes about sex. I often have conversations in my head and laugh out loud. I like reading and viewing images about serial killers and paraphiliacs (not so much viewing). I'm very apathetic to a lot of situations. For example, when someone is mad or me, I laugh. I'm often happy one day, and the next day I can be really sad/mad/apathetic. I'm very shy, I try to avoid social situations. Lately I've been having strange urges to eat unedible objects (i.e. candle wax, bus ticket). I always think people are judging me negatively and when I hear people laugh, I think they're laughing at me. I avoid "lovey dovey" things, even from my parents. I sing music in my head a lot. I have low confidence. I have very different opinions on social matters compared to my friends/family/etc. Do I need help? Or am I fine?

Most of what you say sounds pretty normal and is probably a result of low self esteem. I know because many of things you said sounded exactly like me in high school!
A lot of it also has to do with your personality type. It's ok not to like lovey dovey things, it's ok to be shy and to hate social situations. It really doesn't make you weird, some people are just like that. I am actually.
I am not sure though about your urge to eat unedible objects...I have heard of people doing this, if you know a doctor, just ask what could make you want to do that. It's called something, I can't remember what, but I think it stems from a nutrition deficiency or something.
Also, if you are thinking of killing or harming people and liking it, or planning out in your mind just exactly how you want to do it, and even considering doing it, go talk to someone. But everyone has thoughts sometimes about hurting someone. And sex thoughts are completely normal. Unless it directly follows your thoughts about killing someone...then that's a little creepy.
You may have anxiety problems or even have a little chemical imbalance if you are on extreme highs and lows. Just go talk to a doctor, get their opinion whether or not they think you need anything. Even if they suggest some type of medication, don't feel like you are screwed up. Plenty of succesfull, average/normal people take medication just to take the edge off. To relax. To be a little happier.
But for the most part, you are fine. Stop overanalyzing everything and just be yourself. And don't eat the bus ticket. You might need to go somewhere.

I think if most people were honest, we have all had some homicidal thoughts. Everyone has conversation in their head. It's fantasy, like how you would tell someone to shove it but would probably never really say it to their face.... fantasies about what we would LOVE to do or see happen but now never will.
You do sound paranoid. The eating thing is odd. Get checked by a professional. There are meds you can take to help.

You are very good at describing yourself, alot of insight. However, to be honest what is happening to you is not normal and you do need to seek professional help immediately.
This is a hard thing you are going through and there are people who are aware of your condition and can help you with it. Talk to your parents first and all of you go to the dr.now. You are not fine you have alot to deal with in your head and you most definitely need help now. GO

I think you should get checked out. What's there to lose? You are already concerned about yourself, and the worst that can happen is you lose the doctor's fee. The best situation is you get help.
A lot of what you said is your personality. Few of the things you said actually bother me.

Please see someone. I am sure you are smart. But sometimes, we need some outside help. You have a very good potential to become someone great.
Please use your intelligence for the good. At this point, do yourself a favor and go seek mental help.
Good luck!
