Why do I want bad things to happen to me?

probably cuz all u want is pain and suffering, u may think that u deserve bad things to happen to u when u dont, no one does, its ok in some ways but u dont deserve to be in pain every single day of ur life, u should be free and happy - that may not make sense sorry

because you cant remember how good somethings were... thats why you need to focus on what makes you happy and work towards it

When you desire to have bad things happen to yourself I often find that it is do to feelings of guilt, depression, or PTSD. Dont panic it is completely normal. However, if you are having the urge to act on those things then I highly suggest you see a professional or tell someone you trust.

Maybe you think you deserve it. You blame yourself for something and you think you deserve pain. That’s not true though don’t beat yourself up over stuff.

We might feel really bad about ourselves, and maybe it’s a passive way of thinking of death or intentionally hurting ourselves. It really depends on you and the situation and how you feel- maybe you want to be cared for more and shown more love by people, and we think we could get that from having something bad happen to us.

Because people think that they’re not worth it, that they shouldn’t have born, that they are a waste of oxygen and space

To get attention? Not in a bad way. I have personal experience with wanting something bad to happen to me so I would be more interesting and I could get attention from people.

This is a lot more common than you think. In a sense we all play around with catastrophy as a concept. Sometimes just to entertain us, sometimes to try and predict possible disasters and try and present them, and sometimes to fulfill a subconscious processing of our mortality. The trick comes in when you want them to happen. This could be that you are frustrated some situation and have an extreme desire to disrupt the course things are heading in. When that want turns into destructive action, it is best to consult a mental health practitioner as soon as possible because there might be a mental health issue causing this.

I never want anything bad to happen to me, but i guess at times bad things do happen to me. At times i am the one at fault and i accept my mistakes, learn from them and make sure that the same scenario doesnt occur in the future

Maybe because you see it as the only solution to your problems and give you temporarily a way out.But its not the solution
