I feel the same way. This secret does freak me out too for the same reasons.

I think people are misunderstanding this secret. Having thoughts about hurting the bullies does not mean you are going to do anything. I know because I've felt the same way and I don't have a violent bone in my body. I won't even squash a fly.

Bullying can be extremely damaging, to the extent that it can leave people with symptoms similar to those of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (usually attributed to people who have lived in war zones). When you've been badly bullied and you never got justice for what happened you can be left feeling angry and frustrated that the bullies never suffered as you did, and fantasies like this are a way of your brain expressing that. Just like people who fantasise about punching their nightmare boss, it doesn't mean the person would do it, it's just the only way they can deal with an awful situation where they feel powerless. I'm not saying it's healthy, and I do hope the OP finds away of getting this out because it can really eat away at you. Still, I'm really saddened that instead of sympathy some of you are basically saying that this person is a potential mass murderer instead of understanding that they've been through something terrible and are struggling to deal with it. It is incredibly ignorant to assume that everything a person thinks is a direct indication of what they will do, especially when they explicitly said they would NOT do that. Our brains, and particularly the way they deal with psychological trauma, are extremely complex. Please try to show some understanding and don't judge someone who is clearly already hurting.
