Are You Scared To Die?

[Deleted member]

Just so people actually read this, and understand that people like to BS themselves into things like not being afraid of death.

sounds like you have difficulty seeing an opposing point of view more than anything.

My family has already expressed to me that some fear of death would actually help my level of self-preservation a bit.

That post was the biggest mistake of this thread.

get ****ing *****

I'm not particularly afraid of it, but I'm not exactly waiting enthusiastically for its arrival. Too much to do before then >_<
There's most likely nothing after death. I live every day as best I can and try to enjoy my life, because it's the only one I've got.

...So basically you're saying;

"I'M AFRAID OF DYING AND I CAN'T IMAGINE ANYONE NOT BEING AFRAID OF DYING THEREFORE YOU'RE ALL LYING!!"

Right?

(P.S., that argument actually sucks since people commit suicide. If EVERYONE were afraid of death and unable to kill themselves, that would mean that every single suicide is like, a conspiracy by the government or something.)

As one of my friends so eloquently put it, "I'm not afraid of death, I'm afraid of dying."

Of course, once she stated this to other people, they didn't understand the difference...so just in case you don't either, I'll explain it.

Dying = While death is getting ready to set in. Being on your deathbed.
Death = Being in the afterlife (if any, depending on your beliefs).

I used to be really scared of dying, but all of a sudden I looked at this topic and realized...I'm not all that afraid of it. I can't really explain the change all of a sudden.

I'm still afraid of dying, though. Especially how I'd feel on my deathbed, thinking about what I never accomplished, everything I'd want to say before I went.

not gonna lie, being old is scary. But dying, i'm not really sure. its natural,l everyone dies. so idk really. w/e on national geographic, they say ppl alive today in their 20s and younger will live to a 1000. no lie. they's microrobots already made thats smaller than your blood cells and gene things that can make ur skin age slower.

I'd much rather rest for 10 hours and get up to enjoy the next day.

So, you'd like to be immortal and never die, waking up over and over again?

wow loads of people aren't afraid of death here.

I don't really fear it either.

What bothers me more is the general process of dying. Growing old, losing the people I care about, getting a chronic illness, being lonely, becoming dependent on others etc.

 

[GunmasterLombardi]

Death itself doesn't scare me, it's the pain I experience when I'm brutally murdered that does.

What I'm saying is that I'm afraid of how I'll die, not of actually dying.

^This.

I BELIEVE that I won't die anytime soon. I dream 'bout staring Death in the face, but I ain't scared of "not living". I've even dreamed about dying from a shot of a cigarette, falling down into Hell, and being slaughtered by a werewolf. There isn't enough good to actually LOVE this Earth since Adam and Eve brought sin upon it.(Christianity)

The process of dying is the catch. I've almost drowned at least 3 times, but there was always someone there to help. I'm currently healthy and smart, so when my body weakens after a while, that is when I'll prepare to rest peacefully..
