Has anyone here legitimately felt like they could kill their own mother (but don't because it's illegal and immoral)? How do you cope? (lemmy.ml)

I am familiar with a child abuse victim who feels this way. Not like actively seeking it out, but they wouldn't regret it much if it came to that point.

But I'm not personally qualified to comment on it. If it's becoming more than a passing thought and starting to bother you in everyday life or causing actively homicidal thoughts, it's a good time to seek professional help before it gets you into trouble.
