Ok so im not here to say i have a bad life, although my step parent abused me and i have been raped....everything is seemingly going great...except...

My problem right now and has been for awhile is my... sort of.... addiction with death. Everytime i think about it i cry, i mean, we're all going to die. nothing no one doesnt know about that. but im so afraid of it! i just cry when i think about my boyfriend dying, anyone in my family, me dying and just anyone i know and even people i dont know.
i dont want to think about this my whole life, even tho its the only thing anyone breathing is guaranteed. how do you just, live happy with the fact of knowing your whole life is going to end sooner or later?

Well, I know I'm going to die eventually. I could die right now, or 20 years from now. All you have to do is live your life, ignoring the cold, vice-like grip of Death.

I fear death also, but I don't make something of it. I just act normal, and be happy. It's just like doing something you love. You get so worked into it, that you never wanna stop doing it.

Like, I love to have fun. Even if for a few minutes, or for a few hours, I wanna always have fun. It's something I love. Now, think about your boyfriend. Why don't you have fun with him more often? It will straddle your mind away from death.

But, if you become depressed, and think about death again, tell yourself this. "I'm not afraid of Death. No matter when it shall come, I shall never be afraid of my own death. I will stand proudly and fearlessly, and never let death scare me again."

But, that doesn't mean you should kill yourself when saying that. It's only meant for when you are scared. Thank you for allowing me to speak.

Life is hard to live, but death just seems terrifying. No one knows what happens after just the here and now. I think that is what makes death so terrible to look at. twisted

Well yeah it is hard and everything it is scary...sometimes I just want to ask God why did he have to create us if we will just die in the end?

Im scared of the thought and everything I am scared of losing everything after I die I am scared of just being in heaven or hell just there sleeping...no purpose no nothing.


So you wont be as scared just think that everyone is going to die with you anyway! Everyone is scared everyone feels the same way and besides if you just stay there scared its going to be even worse knowing you did not make anything out of your life when you die so dont worry about it it happens to everyone we cant hide from death anyway....It is scary but just have faith in God cause we know he wont let us down ^^

Don't worry about it. Death is part of life. Try to keep yourself busy with other stuff.

Easiest way not to be scared is to forget.

So what if you're gonna die? Everyone is.

So live life and treasure every frickin moment. Life isn't perfect, we all know that. So just live it out. You only get one shot.

There is no need to be scared...just don't worry. Once in a while it'll hit you that "Hey...I'm gonna die" but only worry about it for oh...five minutes, then go on with your day.

I don't fear death, death is what gives life meaning, gives it value. Where ever you go the value of something is determined by it's rarity, if anyone could just pick up diamonds off the street they'd no longer be valued. Similarly if life didn't end it wouldn't have any value.

Pain and suffering are inevitable in our lives, but misery is optional, so choose not to be afraid and miserable and instead just try to enjoy it's pleasures. You're family and friends will die, which is just motivation to enjoy their company now while you can and to fill yourself with as many happy memories as you can.

Someone once said that so long as you are remembered with love you are never truely dead smile

I'm getting sentamental in my old age but I hope this helps

mmm i dont actually fear death. yeah we're all gonna die, so its not scay, because everyones doing it sooner or later. just live life the way you want to and be happy.

The fear some people have of death can be rational, but at the same time it can also be irrational. Death is inevitable so fearing it is kind of pointless.

Everyone hurts when they lose a loved one and the process of going through that stage can hold such pain that you just feel like putting a knife through your heart to end it, but this is a part of life's process and we can't do anything to avoid it.

Endless worrying isn't going to make death go away, it just takes up effort when you can easily turn your attention elsewhere. Life is so much better when you do productive things. So try to live a fulfilling life and dont' excessively worry about the end. Look at it like a period of rest after a long while of labour.

That's rather morbid.

But what you have is a case of Necrophobia, fear of death.
There are a lot of things in life that you have to face even if you're afraid of it.

I don't believe in 'death' but in 'rebirth'
So that's makes me happy sometimes.

You can die in a few decades from natural causes.
Or you can live forever until the sun blows up.

I have the same problem as you.
But I'm afraid of aging.


You have to live life.
After all.
That's what separates 'living oraganisms' from 'those who live'

We shouldn't think about death & we should be brave enough to find solutions to solve our problems. Life is so difficult crying

enjoy what you have while you have it, death should not be feared, it is going to happen to all of us in one form or another
