I've had a lot of impulsive thoughts about doing reckless stuff. In the moment, I feel embarassed when these scenarios pop up. I shouldn't be thinking this way. These thoughts start appearing so often that I wonder if I actually want these things to happen.
But now that I'm calmer, I realize it isn't that deep. There is basically no chance these scenarios are happening in real life. It can be frustrating sometimes, not being able to talk to people about what I'm feeling. Buuut not every thought you have in your head is meant to go out into the world.
Whenever these thoughts enter my mind I need to acknowledge their existence, let them hang out for a bit, and let them go. It doesn't matter if they pop up again, they're just things my imagination makes up when I'm bored. Now that I'm thinking about it, I feel like this should be common sense. But sometimes you forget the small stuff when you're emotional and need to remind yourself.
