Im sorry to hear your fear! It must be so daunting. I have this fear too when I was 10. To the point I do a lot of mental and physical compulsions and persuade myself that I can live forever. It is daunting to think about death. But it’s the living part that’s important to think about. I like to think that a second is just a measurement of time, but any good moment can be forever long. When we die, we don’t disappear, we just walk out of time.

I’m so sorry…it’s so painful to witness ourselves be so gripped by fear. Let the tears roll friend. I will hold hope for you. Keep seeking help, and keep trying…life is just beginning. Better seasons will come.

You aren’t just someone, you are someone special to so many. You are living the wonder years of your life and your probability to die at 15 is less than 0.05% - that is 0.05 out of 1000 or extremely unlikely. I am not a therapist but from general experience living life, it might help to replace these disturbing thoughts with something exciting m. Maybe daydream a little. Maybe think about the beautiful life that awaits you on the other side of 20. Think how you want to build your career, what you want to do, where you want to go… just think something else happy. Good luck!

existential crisis
Really bad theme right now is death, I keep thinking about how one day or at any moment my heart will stop my brain will stop & my memories & everything I know will all fade away. It is giving me so much anxiety I’m only 18, but I realize it all happens to us it is bound, we are born to die. I know it’s a silly thing to be scared because it’s not helping the quality of my life worrying about it and even when I do die, I won’t care , if you don’t have a working brain then how can you care 🤷♀️. It is tainting my everyday life currently & honestly making me terribly depressed & it is giving me derealization & making me feel nihilistic, I’ll remind myself it’s okay but then with my ocd i don’t stop thinking and thinking about it and it’s seriously so hard to stay present in the moment because this thought just feels like I can’t scrub it away it’s miserable I struggle with religion, but I do pray to anything that’s out there possibly listening, because it is comforting, it just feels like this whole experience Is pointless & I am afraid of the unknown and what is to possibly happen but I’m subjected to it anyways so why should it matter

Been obsessed with death
Of course we can’t stop the inevitable but with my ocd it’s all I can think about. I’m afraid I’ll be alone for ever and I’ll fear forever. Fear does not stop death it stops life. But how do I stop fear??? I can’t think of anything scarier than the fact that our conscious will vanish for eternity. I am only 20 years old but I mean the last 5 years flew by like nothing.
