I think people would be overcome with a strong feeling of selfpreservation that would be described as fear

Im not really sure how to communicate my thoughts lol

How small is your life if you've never encountered it?

I think you're communicating your thoughts well enough, but I also think you're projecting your own feelings, how you would feel, onto others.
I can think of all sorts of people that have faced certain death without fear - men in battle, mothers protecting their children, people who commit suicide, the depressed...

We are not talking about absolutes here, it's only do you fear death. Some do, some don't.

I've got a thread on here a year or more back that was about all the ways I've nearly died. The list is long. I was always scared. In the moment, I've always been afraid. That fear has kept me alive on more than one occasion. But in the larger picture, I'm not afraid of death, I eagerly anticipate it. Can't wait. I just want it to be at a time and manner of my choosing. I've got people that depend on me now, can't check out, but can't wait until I'm free.

The only thing i fear is the impact it would have on my family/friends.

other than that, no. death is just a form of release.

Yeah I am. I've been aware of my mortality since a young age after losing someone close to me as a young child an the idea of leaving this world suddenly like that to never experience anything ever again is scary. To lose everything and everyone around me is a frightening prospect. Of course there are states of existence in which death would be preferable to but really facing the prospect of everything I am and know ending for me now is too much to accept. How could I not fear everything being torn away from me by my life just being switched off? It's all I have. I want to continue experiencing everything and feeling emotions because that's all I have now.

Nah, not scared at all. death means moving on from a world full of pain and suffering.

in my 26 years ive been through and seen a lot, and at least i know, that when i die i will be free from that.

Admittedly I'm still in that "blissfully ignorant of the real world" stage so I guess my opinion isn't fully formed

I think the singer of that band died... Right?

I am not scared for the fact that i'm gonna die someday. i am more scared of the idea that my existence shall disappear on the day i die.

Electric_Head · Post by **Electric_Head** » Fri Dec 06, 2013 12:51 pm

Absolutely petrified of dying.
Not so much the actual death but the fact that I no longer exist.
So I guess the same as Nihilism.

I just think of everything I'd leave behind, the things I'd miss, the experiences, etc.

but dying, for sure.

Yeah, this. I'm only really concerned about what route I'll take to my inevitable death; I just hope it doesn't hurt too much or take too long when it happens. I hope I'm able to regard my life and times with some pride.

The only people scared of dying are those who regret how they lived, IMO.
