I have a bad habit of visualizing myself getting hurt. A lot. When walking down stairs I think about falling and breaking my arms, legs, ankles, and wrists in extremely awkward angles. When walking up stairs I picture falling forward and knocking out my front teeth. When I wait for the subway I sometimes watch it come into the station, feel the woosh as it passes me, and then see myself get hit, while my stomach does flip flops.
Every time I picture these things, my limbs ache, my teeth hurt, and I physically cringe. But I can't help it. I think that it's a subconscious method of self-preservation--my hand always hovers over the stair rail, I step back from the subway--and I enjoy sharing my gory stories in detail.
