For some reason I keep wanting to ruin an n64 game label, but I know not to.
I really need help getting these urges out of my head, and I don't know if this is the right forum for this.

No, I don't want to. I'm trying to figure out how I can keep myself from doing stuff like this. I have Autism and for some odd reason occasionally I want to do something that might end up causing me problems.
WTF? Are you serious or just trolling? Why is this in Tech aid? If serious and you know that this is caused by your autism than I doubt anything anyone will say on an internet forum is going to help. If not serious, well.. welcome to my ignore list.
Well, shit. I'm not trolling, but I would like to not do stuff like this.
Buy a few really cheap sports games and go at it. You might feel better.
Microwave an FM Towns Marty game.
I don't believe tearing labels is the issue so much as it is your behavior.
I'm no doctor and it wouldn't be appropriate to throw your medical history out here for a bunch of Sega nerds (myself included) to try and evaluate as to why it is you feel like being destructive - but I'd suggest taking a break from games. Put your energies toward something else constructively: school, work, sports, art, exercise, musical instrument, whatever.
Sounds like a good idea, perhaps I could try something like that. Guess it's just that I've been so bored around the house.
For the record. I have Autism (high functioning) and I don't wreck labels on games. Whatever your issue truly is, put it towards something constructive. All I can think of, is that you have an anxiety disorder in addition to the autism or you were misdiagnosed.
Or you're a sorry excuse for a troll, looking to make fun of people who really have the disorder.
You need a good stern father figure to beat your ass for doing stupid shit. That's how it used to work back in the 70's (and millennia before that)Quote:

Try having some self control and doing something productive rather than destructive.Quote:

It's a well-known phenomenon -- the urge to do the thing you're not supposed to do -- that almost everyone gets at some point, though people with OCD and OCD-like conditions seem to get it worse. I've repeatedly read that trying to suppress negative thoughts is counterproductive vs. simply accepting them and moving on, and the above paper seems to confirm that.
