It definitely is crazy shit, not always self harm. For whatever reason I always get it when I see nice cars, my brain immediately goes to "kick the headlights!" and then I cringe when I imagine it actually happening, it's so odd because the desire pops up but my reaction to it is disgust or "pain" like I definitely don't want to do it.

Brains are weird lol

Humans are so adaptable because we constantly test boundaries, especially subconsciously. Intrusive thoughts are just testing risk management.
