I think about it. Or it might be more accurate to say I worry about it. Whenever I'm on a tall building, a cliff, a bridge, or even a boat, I'm literally afraid that I won't be able to stop myself and will just jump right on over - almost like it would be beyond my control. Granted, I don't think I obsess over it and it doesn't keeping me from going to those kinds of places, but it's this little voice that I have to continually work to push out of my mind. I've been that way ever since I was little and I have no idea what it's about.
Interesting question. I'm glad you asked.
