I ran this thread about 7 yrs ago, I got some really interesting and some really crazy answers. I definitely have a dark side and those who know me from here know this much to be true lol. I'm a Psych major so it interests me....

Dare to answer???

We all have a dark side, some will and some wont admit it...tell me a bit about your dark side....dont be scared...

I love the darkside, my darkside. very interesting.

I only show my dark side here...i only show my soft side to people who matter ....

care to share? love this pic!

been through something like that. saw it. scary but yet exciting. only once though. wild

people from anywhere should matter, ive made some of the best friends of my life from this site. so what is it about here that brings out your dark side?

you visually saw something similar to this? not being sarcastic at all, but asking... where you straight or under the influence?

i kinda wooshed through it. i was young at the time. no

definitely find that very interesting. i only asked about being under the influence because back in the day, ive seen some craziness but was a little out of my mind on whatever... so that is why i asked.

i dont know. i passed out and coming too i wooshed back thru this black tunnel. i remember screaming the whole way. who knows.

how old were you? did you suffer some sort of mental or physical trauma?

around 26, being married to my first husband. just joking but no.

haha if he was anything like my ex, i feel ya girl! lol...

so you were a little older, not a child.... and it just happened out of no where?

pretty much. to this day nobody can figure me out. lol. maybe cause im left handed and use the right side of my brain there is something amiss. i am quite different.

being different/unique is a good thing darlin! nothing wrong with that! xoxoxo

In 1973, the US journal The Journal of Genetic Psychology published this:

"The shadow is described as the dark side of the personality or representing the original conception of evil in the world. The latter conception places the shadow in the collective unconscious."


so to better ask my question: what brings out your dark side? what traits or practices do y'all have that you believe is your dark side?

one person's ray of light can be another person's darkness... visa versa

I love discussions about this sort of topics! A nice book to read on this topic is zimbardos "luzifer effect". It is about why people are drawn to the "darkside", and why we find it so fascinating.

I believe that there is no good side and no darkside.
Serialkillers, psychopaths, soziopaths lack empathy, therefore they seem to be evil for us "normal" ones. To be fair, they do not understand what they do wrong. Helen morrison, a leading expert on the field of serial killers, believe that this kind of.people are on the emotional level of a baby. They do not know the the power of love, or other feelings. Without those everybody would seem coldhearthed.

A little bit off topic but interesting never the less.

I believe we all have the ability to live in extrems. To be really evil or unbelievably good. But it is not like to sides of a coin in one person. If it was you would get evil in an blink of an eye. But for me it is more like a develepment. When i realize that i get angry, i take a step back and try to reflect the reason and try to counterfit it.
It is all about balance isn't it?

Ive gat DEMONS !!

My humor can be quite dark, and my make-up, too.
