lately i've been unconciously having what seems to be suicidal thoughts...there will be times where i'll be daydreaming about something, but all of a sudden, it turns into something where i end up grabbing a pair of sharp scissors, or a knife with a serrated edge, and i slit my own throat or wrists, or stab myself in the neck. i sit there in my daydream, and basically think of ways to kill myself with a sharp object. why am i doing this? i have a pretty decent life, i'm not depressed, and i have no intention of ever offing myself. why do i have these thoughts? and is this healthy?

Not too healthy. I had that problem and my doctor called them intrusive thoughts of suicide. In my case, I have depression, anxiety and a mood disorder. The intrusive thoughts were a symptom of mental illness that I'm being treated for. You may be OK but you should probably talk to a doctor about it if it's uncontrollable and it's bothering you.

This is not healthy nor normal. You have an underlying cause, possibly sub-conciously or even unconciously, that is causing you to do this. I would suggest going to counseling or talking to someone.

Are you watching horror/slasher movies a lot? Maybe they're just creeping in to your subconscious.
If you're not, maybe you should try watching a couple. Maybe it'll cheer you up.

You should talk to someone about it like a doctor.

I think you need to talk to someone A.S.A.P. Good luck.
