Are you afraid of death?

I've noticed over my 30 some odd years on this planet that different people take death different ways. Some welcome it with longing, some with happyness, some with trepidation, and others with abject fear. What is it that scares you about death or makes you want to look forward to it? Just curious what the members think.

This might sound a bit morbid, but hey, we all have to die at some point. 🙂
 
Yes, I am. But I am also afraid of getting old and sick, maybe even more than of death. Sometimes I think it's better to die young and healthy than live up to 70-80 years. On the other hand, life is so hard and there doesn't seem to be a single glimpse of light (at least for me) that I don't object dying in general. I wouldn't like to live like this forever.
 
Don't take this personally, but that's a not very good question.

Am I scared of death? Well it depends. If I knew I was going tonight, yeah I'd be scared. But I'm 17-am I scared about death coming to get me when I'm 80? Of course not.
 
been asked before and will give the same answear as i always give no, u are dead everytime u fall a sleep.As u don't know that u will wake up or that u are even a sleep its consider to be the same thng as death
 
This is one of those questions that can be asked a million times over and still never fail to intrigue people. Death isn't something i'm afraid of per se, but rather something i would like to avoid, but not at all costs. If i had to give my life for the person i love, i would. If i had to risk my life for a friend, i would. If if i had a knife to my throat, and i have, i wouldn't tremble. My perspective will change someday though, and that will be the day when the person i love dies. After that day, death would be something i welcome.
 
I used to be afraid of death, but then you have to think of it this way: "I'm going to die, there's no way to aviod it." So, you just get over it. You can't do much about it, just try to make it as painless as possible.
 
Iv'e been dead before, it's no big deal, everything goes silent, no pain, no light, nothing but silence.

How come it's possible? 😉

I can tell that I was under narcosis once, it's the same as brain death almost, and I felt terrible. I just wasn't ready for that. I think it's very important to be ready to die b/c death can be really painful if you don't want to die.
 
Hey Booster, you felt pain ?

When I was electrocuted, I felt nothing, just a dimming of the senses and my vision slowly fading away while listening to my heart stop.

Yes, I did. Not physical, but the pain of losing my mind and my identity.

Well, I see what you mean. Nothing much to lose maybe. But I was a lot younger then and I really loved myself, not what I feel now (despair, sorrow etc). I just didn't know that I would be such a failure. For some strange reason I thought that I'd have some glistening and wonderful future, and now I see that I'm stuck in a craphole and can't get out of here. I've been rejected by women, denied workplaces, insulted by thousands of people since then. That's why the older you are the easier it is to die I guess. And it's a piece of cake for an old man.
