Why Do People Fear Death

Recommended Posts

I understand fearing the pain of death but when you die you just...... die. What's there to be scared of

It's not really scary , more like well you no there anymore , you don't want to just go and leave everyone / everything

i already accepted death. i did go through a stage in my life where i was scared of it and thought that there was no point in living if i was going to die, but im pretty much over it and dont mind dying right this second.

Not knowing what comes after, the thought of missing out on things you'd see if alive, etc. I don't think it's that hard to understand people's fear about it.

In the case of others, it's the fear that I will never see them again, especially with my family. I'm the youngest of 5 in the family (two older siblings and two parents), so unless something happens, then I pretty much have to experience four funerals; four experiences of saying goodbye. The prospect of me being all alone during my death is a little unnerving too. And I also get afraid of them having a painful death, or perhaps waking up in their tomb. I used to be able to ignore these things earlier but now that my parents are in their 50s and my siblings are in college the age gaps are really hitting me and it makes me realize that they're going to die sooner or later and IT'S SCARY.

 

As for me dying, it's fear of the unknown (and waking up alive in the tomb because there have been many stories of resuscitation in the hospital and such despite being considered clinically dead and all). Just what happens after death? What happens to your conscious? Where does it go? Does reincarnation even exist? Also, yeah, I've had pretty shitty times in my life but for the most part life is pretty darn great tbh. I don't want to lose that. It kinda makes me wish me and my loved ones were immortal. Kind of.

 

idk maybe I just have that growing "death anxiety" as wikipedia says? These days I can't sleep at night whenever anything relating to death pops up in my mind, and it doesn't help that I'm currently at a nursing exploratory camp. rlytearpls.png  I'm just really scared of it okay rlytearpls.png

My only fear is not getting to do some things...not getting to grow up, have a family, have a career, travel, do things on my bucket list....T___T

 

But if we die, well, we'll forget about everything so I guess it won't matter....I'm not afraid of death, but it makes me feel really sad nowadays. Before, it made me feel better, but now I really value life and I really want to do a lot of things before I go...

Can't personally relate but i figure people either don't know what will happen to them after they die, or they think they know and fear whatever will happen (such as going to hell, reincarnating, etc). Another part is not wanting to leave friends/family/lovers behind or not wanting to make those they leave behind sad (this is the only part I can relate to)
