No and No, already been dead twice, trust me people, there is nothing on the "other side".

"Dying" in the medical sense is not dying in the spiritual one.

Lots of people worry about death. You just need to learn to come to terms with the idea. Letting that fear rule you will take time away from things you could be enjoying about life.

i'll welcome death with open arms......later.

the only thing i fear is dying in my sleep, or when i'm drugged up or something. i want to be alert and awake. it would suck to miss the experience of dying.

dying in yoursleep is alot less scarier then dying while you are awake! why do you think lethal injfecton are so popular vs hanging or being shot at???
PS: what cracks me up is that you want to enjoy dieing, lmao.

Having religion definitely decreases the fear.

it can help.

anxiety about death is a good religious motivator, but i don't know
whether it's sufficient for conversion.

i know if you believe, then you won't fear death, but the
process of being freed from fear may not be quick.

I have no religion, and I fear pain more then I do fear death, how's that?

no i dont fear death... when i'm supposed to die i will

no i dont usually think about death too much... i try to think about life (i dont even know what i'm doing tonight and it's 7pm) haha

Do I fear death? No. Do I fear dying too young (under age 65)? Certainly

I just hope I live a decent life and make it to at least 65 without cancer or physical pain or some such debilitating crap. If I hit 65 and live a healthy happy life then I think I'd be ready to go out.

I used to be afraid and think about it obsessively. It was part of my Panic Disorder. But every since I've been taking medication (Paxil CR) I don't think about it anymore. It stopped me from thinking irrational thoughts.

 

[jhu]

when you get to my age, death is around every corner. aaaah! death!

 

[bugsysiegel]

Death is a punk.

You must own it, not fear it, for it is the last, great adventure.

 

[EvilKittie1312]

I fear it and think about it alot. Actually I think of suicide alot but I know I'll most likely never kill myself because I'm too scared! And because I couldn't do that to my mom & dad...

Drugs alone will not help you to recover from Panic Disorder, it has done more harm then good in some client. Get plenty of exercise, fresh air, be socially active, and don't think too much.

I know it doesn't help me to recover from it. But it is the only thing thats helped. I've tired everything else. It runs in my family, and it seems drugs are the only way to ease it.

I started having panic attacks after my grandma died. It was always late at night...every night I felt like I was going to die, so I couldn't sleep and had to go to the doctor...they put me on paxil too. I was depressed also, and it didn't help the depression(been depressed since I was about 8 years old; I guess it's just the way I am.)...it did help me sleep though, but that's all it done for me.

Better get spamming

On a serious note, im more worried about those around me, and how'd they deal without me, rather than death itself.

Yeh, for some people it doesn't help. But its worked great for me.

I don't fear death, but I do fear dying.

"It's not death that scares me; it's the sudden stop at the end of life that does."

I love life. I love living. I love pretty girls and sex, and food and sunsets and puppies. But I also welcome the day that I can leave this rat race and stop killing myself to live so I can make more money to live in a bigger house in a better neighborhood so I can buy more stuff to compete with the Joneses so I can work harder to make more money so I can.............

The only thing that would suck about death is finding out that there actually IS A GOD and he's really, really pissed off at me. Until then, Imaginary God can kiss my ass.
