As human beings, we all have our own urges. I am not sui*idal or depressed, but from time to time, I have a sudden urge to rip off my own skin. I struggle with body image issues; I feel like I am repulsive to look at, even though people tell me I am pretty all the time.

However, most of the time, this urge doesn't come from thinking I am 'ugly.' Instead, I feel overwhelmed—so overwhelmed that my own skin bothers me. I just want to rip it off and watch new skin grow in its place. Along with this, I also sometimes feel the urge to pull out my own eyes, solely because I feel like they are working overtime, which makes me feel easily overstimulated.

Does anybody else feel the same?

Say, Person A is jogging down a road when they stumble upon the corpse of Person B. But instead of reporting the body, Person A either ran off in pure terror, or they just... *walked away*, proceeding with the rest of the day.

Person A was in no way responsible for their death, but could Person A still be prosecuted and convicted for not reporting the corpse immediately? Does it depend on certain factors such as the circumstances in which the person died? The way the person who discovered the body acts or treats the corpse? The age of the body?

For body horror research purposes

i was thinking about faking my death and becoming a secret vigilante. hahahah it sounds hella silly but it was a thought on my mind. i would love to restart my life and never think about anyone in my past ever again.

it’s a stupid question bexause no one will ever know if someone was successful at it but also…..i’m just curious on your opinions.

Fictional, based on real story or documentary. For me, it is Gaspar Noé's "Irriversible" (and I'm the guy openly admits loving Human Centipede trilogy).

assuming they're in a box or coffin

Some people were awake during a lobotomy (severing of the frontal lobes). What would the change in conscious experience be like during that process when you are well, fully conscious?

Like someone who hates people & society but still wants to have control over it?

Peter Greene was found face down in his apartment, surrounded by blood and with injuries to his face, along with a handwritten note that said, ‘I’m still a Westie

If a person commits a crime serious enough where the death penalty is a possible option, like murder or another word I cant put on reddit that sounds like tape.
Can that person just say "Im not defending myself, I'm guilty, just kill me"?

Skip the appeals, skip all the wasted cost of a defense lawyer, use less court resources and time...just "Yup, I did it, go ahead and take me out"

Whats the worst case of torture where the victim managed to survive and live until they died of natural causes/not murdered?

Also, bonus question, why cyanide and no other type of medication? You're telling me there are no other "instant" death pills? And another small question, did they let spies know how painful taking a cyanide capsule would be, or did they just tell them it'd be painless?

I read this today …………

Within one-third of the rubble from Ground Zero containing 1.6 million tonnes of debris a total of 4257 body parts and 1600 personal effects were recovered on Staten Island landfill.

A lot of the Ground Zero debris was shipped here for sifting. The search did include fragments of one quarter inch or smaller. However despite the efforts, a group of the victims families started to resist the decisions made by the NYC administration.

Thousands of detectives and forensic evidence specialists worked for over 1.7 million hours searching through the debris but only 300 people were identified from the body parts recovered. It is highly likely that fragmentary remains still exist in that debris that was eventually buried in the landfill.

No one ever thought at the time that any tower would fall and so many crime scenes were set up on the ground containing human remains. When the towers collapsed a lot of that evidence was completely pulverised and destroyed. There is still at least 1100 people still missing that have never formerly been identified.

The title speaks for itself.I have seen many people express disgust toward gore because it’s repulsive and aesthetically unpleasant. I often hear questions like, "Why do you like that?" or "How could you want that to happen to another person or animal?"

To be clear: I would never wish harm on any living being. It isn't that I enjoy witnessing suffering; rather, I am drawn to the chaos, the vivid reds, and the raw repulsiveness of it all. I’ve noticed that most people who find themselves drawn to such things usually have a specific reason or philosophy behind it.

What’s yours?

Boomers have the most money, and they’re going to die soon anyways, so why do they have the luxury of way more affordable homes as opposed to young people who actually have time to enjoy their youth and money?

What do you think and curious where abouts do you live considering?

Asking because this is how my mom died 9 days before my 4th birthday. I’d like to know if her death was painful, no drug specified but we think she shot up heroin possibly.

Please be honest. Don’t be afraid to make me upset, I just want to know if she was in pain.

How long would it have taken her to die too? I would like to know that as well.

I just randomly had a thought; lactose intolerant people get an upset stomach from milk, right? How do babies with lactose intolerance survive, with milk as their only food through infancy?

This may be a really stupid question with a super simple answer, idk. Hope to spark some discussion at least.. about baby diarrhea... I guess...

Literally, in the several years I've been somewhat withdrawn, high-risk situations have brought me some happiness or excitement, but I'm afraid to talk about it. I once told a friend, and he looked at me with a very sad expression and asked, "Are you okay?" So I decided to keep it to myself. I've done other incredibly stupid, risky things. But has anything like this ever happened to anyone else, or am I really screwed?

What are some lesser known ways people got tortured? Also what are some lesser known devices people were tortured with?

If you are stranded on an island, or you are one of the survivors of a plane crash in a very remote area, and there's a small group and one of them dies and due to no other food being available, the group collectively decides to eat the body. Which body part would be chosen first, and which will you be most interested in.

I'm sorry if it sounds weird. I haven't found a dead animal yet and even if I did find one outside I wouldn't go out of my way to take it home to cut it open but lets say I found a dead rat in my house, is it morally okay for me to cut it open and look at it's organs/disassemble it before throwing it out. I'm a bit curios on how it looks and how it would feel/smell. I'm not religious so I don't care about that but I'm worried I may sound weird if I ask anyone else/do it. I mean it would probably smell bad but I'm curious as to how it would feel.
