intrusive

intrusive is not the same as impulsive
impulsive implies a whim and intrusive implies a violence

impulsive is more like I should smash my hand into this pile of flour while I’m baking
the consequence is a mess

intrusive is unwanted, like the crippling fear of never being good enough
the consequence is feeling the will to live slip through your fingers

it isn’t fun

mental illness rarely is
