Are you scared of dying?


Not me. I'll finally get to sleep as long as I want. No more pain, no more insulin injections.

Signed, million man.

Yes, I don't like the idea of not being around anymore. I'm agnostic but I think most likely when you die that's the end of you.

That's pretty much how I feel.

Not really anymore. I was terrified of it when I was younger. I just have a few obligations to my deceased parents I need to fulfill first, take care of my pet and after that I really don’t care. What I am far more scared of is becoming an invalid and being trapped in a nursing home. I couldn’t stand those places when my mother was there and I don’t want to end up in one.

I was terrified of death as a young person, but the fear has slowly faded with the decades. Now I'm over sixty, and the fear is pretty low-level. This has got to be Nature's way.

Not scared if dying, but worried about my manner if death. Being in a fire would be just awful 😕

Hope I go in my sleep.

I'm more scared of 'how' im going to die more than death itself.

reply

No. I learned a long time ago that it's a waste of time to worry about it. There's nothing you can do to avoid it. I'm getting old enough that I think I'll be ready when the time comes. All I can hope for is an easy death - such as dying in my sleep.

reply

Yes, there's lots of stuff I'd like to still do and learn. I mean I am not actively worrying about it, but would like for it to not happen.

reply

No, but I think most people are afraid of how they will die, than dying itself. Well, that's my view anyway.

reply

That's true. I don't fear death as it's inevitable but I do fear dying. There are very few ways to die that doesn't involve pain and terror. I just hope I die in my sleep.
