are you afraid of death?

Words like die, dead, death are taboo words to superstitious people esp. chinese. :P They say it'll bring bad luck but how many of us believe in luck? haha. I'd rather believe in fate. ok that's a bit off topic. So, what do you feel when you first heard of tragic news like 9/11 etc.? Or what do you feel when you first saw a fatal road accident? Well, I still remember how I felt when a road accident killing 28 people happened at where I'm from. I mean I was there! It's like 'i could have died'. And that doesn't mean I don't know that everyday, people die. It's life but are you afraid of death? To me, no atm.

Slightly but it's not something I think about to be honest. Would rather live my life to the full and when it happens, then yeah it happens I suppose. :P

Yes, I am. I'm terrified of death, actually. I think maybe I'm so scared because I haven't really achieved anything yet. I'm scared of dying worthless and alone. If you don't live for something, you'll die for nothing, as it goes.

Not afraid at dying cos I know it's going to happen no matter what. More afraid of how it's going to happen cos ideally it'd be a 'I'd go to sleep then not wake up' but there are millions of other ways you could die and I'm afraid that I'll get one of the horrible ones.

yes. and i have this really weird thing (it's probably part of my array of mental illnesses) where if i'm thinking about a future event or even looking back at a memory in my head i come up with about 100 different ways i could be killed and then i'm so scared i can't sleep.

for example, i was thinking about a time me and an ex boyfriend went for a walk beside the birmingham canal and then my brain started thinking about all sorts of ways i could've died: i could've slipped on a wet paving stone and given myself a head injury, he could've thrown me in an drowned me, someone could've mugged me out of a bush.

absolutely terrified. but i think it's just me. NO WORRIES.

lol it's not just you, I do that too. We can be weirdos together :P

oh thank the lord, honestly thought i'd completely lost it.

i've never really thought about death in detail... i've never seen myself dying (immortal lol). when i was younger though maybe 5 or 6 it used to freak me out and i dunno why :S

No and I can't wait

i over think about death so much, like after watching films like 'final destination'. i went to a car show and was convinced they were gonna crash and i would get crushed by a car engine fun times. yes im scared of death, terrified
