[ WP ] A person who is addicted to murder is trying to fight their urge to kill .

Reader, do you want to know why I can not control my urge to kill? Well, I guess you must if you're still reading this far. 
 
 Ever had something you could n't avoid doing, like breathing? What happens when you ignore your urge to breathe - you pass out, or you die of course. Well, what happens if I ignore my urge? I'm afraid people die, just in greater numbers than if I had n't done so. 
 
 Okay, listen, I'll tell you what it's like, but you must bear with me through this, and I will require your cooperation. 
 
 Sit still, focus on the words, read them carefully. Take notice of your skin, *feel* it's presence. Now, you might not even be aware of the itch building on your nose, or perhaps it's on the crown of your head, even your cheek - I'll tell you what, if you are feeling that, just ignore it - it's not even there – it wasn ’ t there before was it? It ’ s just your imagination running wild. You did n't feel the itch, so you've no need to scratch it, right? No need to look for something that is n't there. You never know what you ’ ll find if you ’ re not looking for anything… 
 
 Even if you do have an itch, don ’ t bother paying attention to it. Just ignore it, at least for now. If you scratch it you will weaken your resolve and fail this test - never mind how great it would be to satisfy that annoying burn to relieve your desire. You do n't want people to think you're not capable of controlling your own body do you? Leave the tickle alone. 
 
 Now, *that* is what it's like to avoid my dark urge, only far worse than you can imagine. The stranger inside of me is far more persistent than your meagre itchy piece of skin. You believe you're in control, but there are those reading this that succumbed to that desire anyway, even when they were under orders not to. However, those that did n't itch - and I'm talking to you directly - you still *feel* it though, right? How long can you ignore it? 
 
 Forever is an awfully long time...
