Anyone else scared of death? Its inevitable. But the thing im worried about is what will happen. Will my consciousness be trapped in a state of existence to live out the memories of my life? Will I be a higher being who is above emotions? Will i get rest? Or will I simply just deteriorate. The thought of my body rotting terrifies me, and being in a deep sleep. Im terrified more terrified than I should be. I hope its peaceful and is different from this life.

>>85438560I got used to it after nights of crying and dealing with it mentally, I am ready to die any time i wish now and feel at peace with it. Wont cause theres a few things i wish to do before that.
>>85438700I thought so too but acceptance was a copeing mechanism. The process of death seems eerie to me. Guess over the years I havent given it much thought until now.
What does it matter? You'll get there whatever happens. Everything is born to die. Even if it's not as you would want it to be, there doesn't seem to be anything to worry about.I never understood this. I don't feel any anxiety about death. I haven't "accepted" it or "come to terms" with it or anything else people talk, about, I simply don't feel fear of death. Well, I do for imminent pain and injury, but not for dying in itself and not for death, or otherwise abstractly.
I'm scared because I feel like if I died right now I would go to hell, become a preta or lose my individuality.I should take things more seriously...
