Is this random?

For about a week i have been "seeing myself" stab strangers with a flathead screw driver. Specifically a size 4 into the clavicle area. It is like a daydream. It is disturbing. Even more disturbing when in public and someone walks close to me and has prefume/cologne. I dont walk around with screwdrivers but this has been bothering me. It drifts in and out daily.

Today a stranger approached me as i had my headphones in. I took them off and heard the chaos of city noises. I looked at him and said something out of character but i cannot remember what i said at all. I only remember as he walked away...how it would be if I punched a few holes in his clavicle.

Is this random? My OT says as long as I dont act on it.. it is normal but i NEVER had random thoughts like this.

Am i alone? Is it really normal because i do not think it is.
 
When I saw this one neighbor the other day, I made the comment to her that I didn't need any stress in my life at the present time.

Her comment to me was that she would always have stress in her life because she has a family and I didn't. For some reason, her comment just didn't feel okay. She knew about my surgery but I am finding it is becoming harder and harder for me to be around her and some of the things that she says.

Oh well, I am aware that she probably has no idea how some of her comments are way of out of line but she says them anyway. Just get tired of hearing them!
