Suggest Treatment For Mental Illness

Hi, I'm 15 years old and i have a question..
I do things, that scares me.. for example, when i'm on my way home at night, i choose to go the way through the wood, cuz I know that it will make me feel scared. And i watch horror movies alone, even if i get really scared.. I watch movieclips on sites when people die, on real..
I do all of these things and more weird stuffs.. even if I get so scared, when i do it.. but i like the feeling some kinda way..and hate it too..
What's wrong with me? I can't stop.

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. You should talk to your friends. At the age between 15 and 20, young people do undertake so many tasks which are off the normal and such an attitude is natural. At this age period, young people do have risk taking attitude and is universal attitude. Nothing to worry about. Such attitude shall diminish when you understand the fact that risk taking behavior is actually harmful, and such a wisdom comes after a delay. Don;t worry.

If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe some psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition further.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
