There's something evil inside my head but I'm not evil and it makes me feel powerful, like a rush of excitement.
Am I wrong about this or am I actually a really horrible person?
I feel cursed, like I can unintentionally kill people with mind tricks or the way I look at them. It really scares me and I find myself "running away" from the people I love because I don't want to hurt them because it'll be all my fault. I can't shake these thoughts and I hate myself.

Kaxx, Please try relaxing by breathing exercises or Mindful Meditation and you can always try relaxing or removing your "evil" thought with the help of hypnosis. You control your thoughts and yourself. Don't forget that. Try not to entertain your negative thoughts and just being in present can do most of the work too.
Hope it helps.

The fact that you recognize these thoughts as bad, and that you don't want to do them speaks to how good of a person you are. I kinda suck at giving advice and I'm not a psychologist but those sound like intrusive thoughts. And yeah they're a pain and hard to get rid of but they don't in any way make you bad. Like they said above, mindful meditation can help. Relaxation and all that good stuff. But it's important to remember that these thoughts are just thoughts, nothing can force you to act on them.

Do you see a therapist? Or take some meds?

That is called intrusive thinking ,you think about it but you wont actually act on them.You sound to me like a caring person.If it makes you feel better to talk then talk to me or anyone else here , I have intrusive thoughts all of the time and it scares me because it is about hurting and killing my kids and grandchildren but I have no intension of hurting or killing them,I know it can be very scary to think like that because numerous times I feel like I am going crazy. here is a hug to make you feel better.

There is a component of OCD thinking that deals with horrific violent thoughts, you should look into that.
