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.

all of this is me.

i always sit and think about death sometimes. it only hit me that death will catch up with us all when my grandad passed away. like. it's a scary thing knowing there as such things as just dying instantly. it happens and it could happen to anybody at anytime... really freaks me out :(

i'm really quite afraid of it to be honest with you.

i don't think about it all the time, but when i do it really does scare me. :(

It's human nature to be scared of death tbh.
No matter how much people try to help you not fear it, you still will. It'll always be there ready to take you at any moment in time, not knowing how you'll die or what happens after death.

Yeah, I've always been scared of death and I actually hate myself when I start thinking about it cos I can't stop thinking about it.

i'm mostly afraid of not being in control of what happens through the fact that i'm going to die regardless of anything and not knowing what happens after makes me even more wary tbf.

Nope :) - it's inevitable and I learnt to deal with the fact that I shouldn't be worried about dying - it just doesn't scare me :P

I'm terrified of dying. I don't like not knowing completely what's going to happen. I also don't like the idea of it being complete "nothingness" :/ I sometimes cry just thinking about it. At times I think I may even have a weird phobia.

Ever since i've been diagnosed with Anxiety Disorder back in January i've been fearing it for quite a while :(

I feel there is no reason to be afraid all your life. Your not dead yet so make the most of it. I havn't ever been faced with a life threatning situation so my view is a tad biased I suppose :(
