How do you feel about dying? Any thoughts or concerns? Are you scared?!
Question: Nope I grew up with the idea that I might not live a normal life span as I was born with a really rare blood disorder and wasn't expected to live past 18 months of age. Since the disorder can manifest it's self at any of three stages in a person's life I could never know if I was going to redevelop it again and this time it would kill me. So far I've beat the odds in fact I'm the oldest person in the US if not the world to survive this disorder. I've also lost 3 brother's and 1 sister who died before the age of 45 so the idea of dying is something that my family is very familiar with. Death doesn't scare me, my children dying before me scares me more, but my own death doesn't scare me I've already lived a lot longer than people thought I would. 16 years ago I almost died again giving birth to my daughter when the placenta separated pre-maturely and I started to hemorrhage and had to be transfused with 21 units of blood. The doctors said that I died on the operating table where they were doing and emergency C-section and they were going to pronounce me dead when my heart restarted. It took about 3 weeks for my kidneys to come back. So no I'm not afraid of dying at all it will be the next great adventure in my existence.

the biggest fear is fear itself. i personally have no fear of dying. it's natural, and when it happens, i believe i'll be going to somewhere i kan have a shitload of fun. i mean it can't be worse then here can it?
I've grown up around death. I suppose my only concern is that my daughter is taken care of after I'm gone. I at least want to see her graduate. I'm not afraid of death. I see it as a natural part of life and have made my peace with it.
My biggest fear is dying in fire or water. Other than that I'm okay with it.
Why would you be afraid to die? Unless you are not leading a moral life and are afraid of the inevitable consequences. I am lloking forward to seeing loved ones who have passed on already and are up there waiting for the rest of us..
Nope. No fear of death. If I die I'm dead visa vi I won't be alive to see it happen.
i am a nihilist and a cutter. i've attempted suicide before. obviously not scared. i have no concerns because once i'm dead it wont matter. i dont want a funeral or to be buried, i want to be cremated and used as fertilizer. that way my body will be useful. i would like to be left in a ditch to rot but ethically no one would do that for me.
I'm not scared of death. In fact I'm a little curious what is beyond. Everyone and everything dies. The Universe itself will die and will reborn.
if asked same question a few months ago-I would have said that I was a dead ,evil man who was in a hell level as I was feeling i was at that time-but I had a severe case of amnesia whereas I had no idea who i was -what i did in my past to deserve this-etc-this is true-as far as physically dying -ive been there and it isnt so bad-i would basically like to be a better person in this life -perhaps later on there may be a few benefits?
Everyone has to die sometime and you can't get away from it so what is the point in being scared of it.
It does no good to be afraid of dying or death, but I am a little concerned about what forever is. Lets suppose we get to heaven, do we really spend and eternity there? Doing what? Forever is, a long time.
i don't care. my only concerns are what'll happen to my friends and family once i'm dead. but no, i'm not scared.
Hello,,my major concern is for the people who are still living and have too much negative emotion. The world is slowing down and life must be transferred on some far away planet or moon based operation. The scientific brains are smoking to much crack in their think tanks and we must become a more positive human being creating a secure future for those people that want life on a place that allows for freedom and feeling the good earth beneath them. Solar and wind generated power is something they need out there in space? hello it works here on this PLANET. Anyway I'm not scared about dying and if I'd die today it'll just be another hole to dig and fill.
have to sday i am scared to death, pardon the pun, of death
i dont want to die, i dont want those i love to die
but we will and theres nothing you cand do to stop it
its terrifying to me
i dont want to not exist anymore, those who have died in my family i cant fathom in my mind that they simply dont exist here, body or mind, nothing
just gone
yep afraid i have serious issues with death
I am not afraid of death, Ive grown up around it, dealt with it and have to live with it. Death is nothing but natural and isnt really death to those who have salvation, death is really just the begining. I am more afraid of how I am going to die... any type of suffocation or burning alive. Other then that I am not scared. But the pain only lasts for that moment in time so really I have nothing to be afraid of.
