Since nobody really knows what happens after we die, I would reccomend that you find a belief that is comforting to you. I personally like to believe that after we die, our consciousness ceases to exist. This is comforting to me because I think the saddest thing about death is the pain it causes those left behind, and it would just hurt to much to be around to witness that. But I also like to think about my body being reincorporated into nature.

I want to be buried without any embalming or a fancy coffin, and then I want to have a tree planted above my grave so that I know that part of what was me will become the tree.

As far as being afraid of death, I'm not really. I don't like the idea of dying, but I know that I have no control over it so there is no sense in worrying about it. Like I said before, the thing that makes me really sad about dying is thinking about the people who would be sad about my death.

I hope you can find a way to think about it that causes you less anxiety. If not, maybe you should talk to someone about it.

I think that someday everyone will die and there is nothing that we can do about it but until then we need to live our lives as we normally do.

I do not fear death, at least not my own. You would be comforted by the Buddhist way of knowledge. You don't have to abandon your current faith, but if you read and practice the Buddhist way, you may be at peace.

I have that exact feeling. I can't stand it! Its like we should all be invincible and never die. I find it hard to believe that everyone dies but then i come to realize that many of my family members have already past away and dieing really does occur. I get sad, i have panic attacks when thinking about death but then you have to realize that we should all live life to the fullest!

There is no avoiding the inevitable..... all of us will die sooner or later..... my philosophy is: why let something as ominous of death run your life? I think you should not think about it, just let yourself live in peace.

a death in the family or if you came close to death, it effects people differently. its common when someone you loved dies, it makes me think about life...death. i get scared of living tho scared to die. when i overdosed,it made me think differently about life. ever since, i think about "what if i did die...what would happen..."? weird things come in my mind & i think im the only one. its so much fear about death, the unknown is an issue for me sometimes. all those questions in your head after someone dies...can be distrubing. i made a video about my experience, about lfie now. i'll be fine, then the next ill be thinking about it. i hate it! "would i know if i died?..how would it effect my family?..would i be forgotten...." what happens afterwards? i sometimes get these thoughts that maybe ill be reborn, redo life. tho thats unknown. bugs the heck out of me! i cant keep thinking like this, it ruins my day to day living. i cant let it get control. if i die, i die. its so scarey for me that others think its dumb. with my OD, life is better...tho those questions always come to my mind.


im sorry for your loose hon.

Probably almost every person does at least sometimes. Though the recent loss has probably left you feeling pretty vulnerable, it has a way of doing that... You'll most likely eventually calm down though after a while.

something tells me its awsome...

i dont think about death at all to me it just happen it dont bother me at all when someone dies sometime i just think about all the funny ways it could happen and youll get over its probally just a stage

i have faith in God and that gives me peace in my heart.
I'm also content with the life I've lived,
if you have fear you could have something Misssing from your hear. i cry at funerals , because i will mis them.

i also am scared of dying and i am a christian and i should know better but i fear doctors and their procedures i am ashamed of myself my friend you are not alone i did sadly watch as my best friends sister actually die of cancer it was an emotional thing but as we sadly stayed by her side it seemed as she died peacefully it seemed like it was harder for us to be left behind i still am uneasy about dying you are not alone believe me just be right with God and i promise you will be in heaven where there is no pain or death take care my friend

read the bible honey. There is a fraze that says "the dead are aware of nothing" There is nothing to fear ECCLESIASTES 9:5, 10

ive died before. It's not that bad. Don't try it though.

A person progresses their whole life and suddenly leaves. Does this sound like graduation.... or loss?

A purpose to all this sounds more likely. Therefore, death is just a doorway....

When you walk through it, one thing is certain: you take a lifetime's progress wit' ya.
