Fear Of Dying

Samanthawho

Hi, I was wondering is anyone else as bad as me. When I think if dying i start having panic attacks, i break out in a rash and my heart starts to beat really fast. I have to try to snap out of it. I try to start up a conversation or think of other things to take my mind off it.

Should i go to see someone about this?

I just think, one day its all going to be over, i'm going to be gone! I'll never see the people I love again.

Havn't really taught about after life. I'm 50/50

You sound the perfect candidate for some brainwashing..

Have you ever heard of scientology?

I'm terrified of dying. However, death isn't as bad.

You'll cease to exist

Missing the people you love is unlikely to come into it

But yeah, of course death is scary.. avoiding it everyday is the only thing that keeps us alive after all =p

i think if your having panic attacks it's a bit extreme and maybe you should see someone. a hynotherapist ,possibly. i can pm you the website of a good one.

If there was such a thing, you wouldn't remember them anyway. Maybe I shouldnt have said that to you..

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyy too young to be worried about that sort of thing. And then by the time I'm old I'll probably be looking forward to it.
The way I see it now; I'm 21, if I think over all the things I've done, have happened etc. I still have all that multiplied by about 4... that's a lot of things. I'll prob be fed up with this place by that stage.

However no boards when I die... sh1t.

Oh my god, I know exactly how you feel. I start to get anxious and start breathing fast and getting generally panicky. I just can't imaging not existing, it seems too overbearing to me.
I thought I was the only one who got so scared of it.

wudangclan

how old are you ,op?

true.
it's unlikely we pack our egos in a little suitcase for transportation to the afterlife.

I'm 24. No kids, but sometimes i think i should start having kids becuase life is too short and i need to do everything so i can enjoy it longer. I always think like that.

Myself- i wouldn't go that far.
I'd say it just scares the life outta me.

Scared of dying is one thing ,it's what ( if anything ) that comes after the also worries many, which is probaly not one and the same thing I suppose but a double worry to some

angel01

The way I see it, life is short, you have to enjoy every second.

it's not unusal to freak out about death, i think you'll find you're not alone. it is however a problem if it makes you panic a LOT or if it inhibits your day to day life, if that's the case then i'd say look into seeing a counsellor and talk it out with someone or go chat to your doctor (they're very understanding).

i used to have a lot of panic/anxiety problems but i pretty much am over all that now (i went to a psychotherapist for over a year & it really, really helped) so if you want to ask questions just send a PM

Whosbetter?

I hope to die peacefully in my sleep, like my Grandfather did.......not shouting & screaming, like his passengers.
