why am i scared of death
 

i think about it constantly
and im 21
this is gay

try it - if you dont like it - then dont do it again

you are going to die

Don't be scared of death itself. Be scared of how death will approach you.

YT-Live the moment.:2 cents:

time for you to put the computer away and step outside and realize that death is not something to dwell on.. go camping in the mountains and I am sure you mind will have other things to dwell on.. like not dieing(dying?) :thumbsup

Dude you are still young i don't see reason why to be afraid .

It's not death that is frightening, it is not living life! :thumbsup

most likely because you now have a child in your life, and you are now concerned about what goes on after you are gone. Not just the now and near future?

not sure though..perhaps you are just nutz

:winkwink:

i dont dwell on it
it just seems like dying is going to suck

when i was 17 i got stabbed in the neck in a fight and almost died
my buddy sean has been dead since september

life is just fucking short
coming to terms with mortality is a difficult concept

One that fears death is one that doesnt enjoy life. :2 cents:

:thumbsup

i contemplate it - i realized a clarification is in order
when i am constantly thinking about it
its just a bothersome conundrum

Haha, this may be the wittiest thing I have seen on GFY in the last year.

Watch, it's probably a line from some movie and I just didn't get it.

"Why am I dying to live, if I'm just living to die":glugglug

:glugglug except hes pouring it out for his homies
nice line rip 2p nb

you need to read some existentialist Philosophy.

"Every day is a good day... just try missing one sometime"

examples? authors?

i always need something to occupy my time.

enjoy life, everyone dies

ROFL:1orglaugh

Crazy !!


Why be scared ? Happen's to everyone. Shit happens.

start with Kierkegaard. then Nietzsche. followed by Heidegger. might be better to pick up a general book on existentialism, rather than read the names i mentioned straight up, unless you have a Philosophy background.

i am not afraid of dying but i am afraid of aging.. how fucked up is that! like most people i have had some VERY close brushes with my # being called.. and strangely i am at peace with it.
however, aging scares the crap outta me :(

ok - thanks for the recommendations

You could be 30 or 40 or even 50, but you still would look absolutely fantastic for life LL :)

fear not death. for it is meerly a transition.

ho shit, thanks for the tip :Graucho

I think it would help if you think that you are not the only one who thinks that is going to die... I think about that... I could die every morning when I go to buy the newspaper.. or while I'm having a bath... or maybe sb could kill me in the street accidentally..

Nobody lives forever... and sometimes the death is a solution as well.

Don't focus on death. It will only give you creeps and problems. Try to enjoy life!

Ya, you'll be too preoccupied with the poison ivy and mosquito bites to give a shit about anything else!

:thumbsup

why worry about it now... worry about it when it happens... live life to the fullest and always do what makes you happy

You need more xanax

Dude you are seriously freaking me out ... quit obsessing over it ... fuck it i have been shot, stabbed, and gotten the shit kicked out of me ... i am still here .. i just do not want it to be too painful is all i worry about ..

Go out and take more risks.

That is pretty fucked up.. I'm 8 years older and it hardly ever crosses my mind. :)

yo yt, i like you dude.


if you ever need to talk and just bs, hit me up:)

I began worrying about death when I was in grade four... (hey, I was a weird kid). The reason I began to worry because it suddenly dawned on me what death means if you don't believe in an after-life. (which I don't)

I've found it helps a lot to look back on your life and think about how long it seems to have been so far. Then look at how many years you are likely to have ahead of you, and how damn long those are going to take. Might as well put off worrying until you are much older.

That's the only solution I've been able to work with.. just not thinking about it. And figuring out ways to make sure I am happy today... not tomorrow, not later... NOW. That way, if I do die soon, at least I lived happily.

I used to think about dying all the time, I lived my life in fear & terror,

But now that Sadam is gone, I feel so much safer.

Look at it this way. You won't be alone. Everyone living on earth right now will be dead by the year 3,000 or just about dead.

So you'll have 6 Billion people to keep you company. Assuming of course you get into the air conditioned place and not the warm one down below.

"It's not death that is frightening, it is not living life!"

Absolutely, and we should all make time to get off the computer and live life a bit more.

:2 cents:

if i died and went to heaven and had to endure eternity with some of the zealot bible thumpers, i would put in a transfer

thanks izz u rock too

When I'm depressed, I welcome death.

Everybody will die sooner or later. You don't even have to think of it.
