Death

[Richie]

It's a weird topic to discuss but sooner or later we all die. In the past I was scared of dying but it doesn't go through my mind as much anymore.


Are you scared of death? if so why?

I guess I still have a fear of death but I suppose my main concern is my family having to grieve, suffer and sort out all of the normal problems when someone dies. I'm not trying to be big headed by saying "everyone loves me and they'd be heartbroken if I died" its obviously what happens to most family's when they lose someone close to them like a family member.

I'm not going emo on your ass so don't go emo on mine.

I used to be scared of dying and think about it most nights but now I've come to terms and I'm no longer scared. Have a good few years hopefully ahead of me

I used to be scared of dying and I used to think about it and actually be really upset... but now I just think well we all die and there's nothing I can do about it and I have to live my life to the fullest, enjoy what it has to offer etcetc

I really just don't think about it myself. What's the point in bothering yourself about something you can't change no matter how hard you think about it? That's the way i look at it.

i'm not scared of dying, i'm scared of dying without accomplishing what i want. or living the way i want. i'm scared of dying with regrets, guilt or burdens

Im not scared of dying at all. I feel that life is what it is, enjoy it now, im not saying go skydiving everyday, but just enjoy it. No point fearing over something out of my control and that no one has any real knowledge on.

I'm not really scared of it because everyone will die eventually. Might as well make the most of it while you can.

Tbh you can say you aren't scared one bit but have you ever experienced lying in your deathbed knowing that youre gonna die soon?

People say they aren't scared because they're young and stuff but if tomorrow you got told that you had weeks to live then I think fear will hit most people like a brick wall

I'd say that I'm not scared of death until I'm close to dying

About 2 years ago, I went through a difficult time and I actually contemplated dying. Not committing suicide but just thinking about death and how I'd feel. At the time I was so worn out and depressed that thinking of not being alive wasn't a bad feeling. And I imagined everyone I'd known who had died being in heaven together, and what it would be like to meet them again. I just felt like things weren't going to get better and death was a way to escape the pain and just be happy. Thankfully I got through the difficult time and now I don't feel scared of dying. I'd be scared to die in a painful or slow way.

Could say the same back really, you've never been on your death bed so you don't know how you'll react. Could go either way. Some will accept death and know that its just a part of life. Others will obviously be scared. I think its just a different mindset, and from what i can say about myself i dont fear death at all.
