By the explaination you have give, i think you are undergoing series of panic attacks, and this attack is called "fear of death".Dont have to worry about this, there are several cures available and do not go to meds.Just try some of the tips given in this blog

You need to seek a psychiatrist. There must have been something that altered your thought process or outside factors that twisted it. Sounds serious, you need to see what medication they can put you on to ease your mind from the anxiety. Too much anxiety will cause you to become psychotic.

Man I know what you mean I never had that but for 5 years Ive been having a dream-like feeling, i also been having the feeling of depersonalization. Sometimes for some reason i feel like nobody loves me not even my parents. Sometimes I feel like im lost in time or something and i can't do anything about it. Ive had suicidal thoughts also but deep inside i know i would never do it. Stay strong man, and i think it may be Anxiety attacks becouse thats how i fell when i had mine.

I'm not a dr. but it sounds like you need to see someone right away. Not only to help you but to make sure you don't hurt anyone else...

There could be a possibility you have more than one type of mental illness. There is nothing wrong with having a mental illness and in most cases light medication or therapy will fix it. There is a supposed 12 million people in the united states with a mental illness.

Please go find someone you can talk to about this and get help... it'll only get worse over time.

'White Lilly' gave the adice I would give. You're exhibiting a deep paranoia and it's not rational. There are meds that can help alleviate at least 90% of the symptoms you describe.
Please seek some intervention; it's only gonna get worse if you don't.

Your last paragraph, regarding Jesus, confirmed what I thought while reading your second to last paragraph. Religion is the source of your mental problems. Back when I was a psychology student the professor had a former mental patient come in to speak to us, and toward the end he mentioned that his belief in the supernatural, Christianity in particular, was at least partially responsible for his naked midnight run through the golf course with police and helicopters in pursuit that led to his being committed. He said he thought he was Jesus.

Religion is often contradictory and extremely threatening and harsh. One of their commandments says that to think a thing is as evil as to do it, and many people take this to heart, especially children, and come to hate themselves for failure to live up to an impossible rule. In the book "1984" George Orwell called the breaking of such laws "thoughtcrimes" and in his vision of an oppressive society the government insinuated it could read people's minds, just like the Christian God.

Please consider that mysticism, the belief in anything unproven or unreasonable, is the opposite of reason. And that reason is what defines us as human beings. Therefore, what threatens reason, such as superstitions, religions, and other nonsense, threatens each of us at the core of our humanity. Giving up these false beliefs will free you from this self-deluded oppression that is causing your mind to run and your thoughts to disturb you.

There's nothing wrong with thinking things, and you should try to think of more things, and you should always keep in mind respecting your humanity by using critical thought and reason to answer life's questions.
