Intrisive thoughts are fairly common, and not related to a specific community or exclusive to any identifiable subgroup: > These thoughts are part of being human, and need not ruin the quality of life. Treatment is available when the thoughts are associated with OCD and become persistent, severe, or distressing. > One example of an aggressive intrusive thought is the high place phenomenon, the sudden urge to jump from a high place. A 2011 study assessed the prevalence of this phenomenon among US college students; it found that even among those participants with no history of suicidal ideation, over 50% had experienced an urge to jump or imagined themselves jumping from a high place at least once. A 2020 study carried out in Germany reported similar results. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intrusive_thought#Aggressive_thoughts https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intrusive_thought#Aggressive_t...
