I was just wondering what everyone's feeling were about Death and dying. I'm not doing this in a morbid way, I'm just curious to everyone's feelings towards it as my Uncle passed away this weekend, and I have lost a few family members in my life including my Dad and brothers, and some of my mates are afraid of dying, whereas I look at it as a new beginning and a new life starting somewhere else.

dying doesnt really scare me in the sense of being dead as its a fact of life i nearly lost my dad in 2005 and from that i now live each day as if it could be my last (he had a car accident)
the only part that scares me a bit is the thought of who will be left behind without me in their life

[Fom]

Im not scared of dying... I am more scared of other people dying, I am petrified of the day I lose someone close to me, I never want to experience the world without my mum or sister. I want them here forever, I'd rather I died first tbh.

[Captain.Remy]

I'm not scared of drying, I'm frustrated that I won't know what will happen once I'm not here like new technologies and all that stuff. It's frustrating.

[Ramsay]

Im pretty scared yeah but as fom said im more scared about someone close to me dying

[MR.K!]

Death dosent scare me, it's just a factor of life that you have to deal with. I am scared of the death of people close to me though :S

[Victor-Smith]

It scares me to death (get the pun)

heheh ditto

Death really doesn't scare me. Of course I would love to live for as long as possible but when it comes I will be fine with it
Like others, I am more scared of losing someone close to me

[Simone.]

I am scared of death but I've experience loosing people close to me & I don't think I'd ever be able to handle that again.

[KillER]

it doesnt scare me. its gotta happen sometime! i believe in an 'afterlife', as ive experienced/seen ghostly happenings... but i dont believe you either go to heaven or hell etc.......

[Fangz]

Death itself doesn't scare me, but having a lingering, painful death like my uncle had with skin-cancer scares the hell out of me. I've always said, if I ever get diagnosed with some lingering, terminal disease, I'm going to put my affairs in order, say my goodbyes, and do myself in.

[Z]

Death scares me. I don't want to think about growing old and getting ill and being forgotten about and being shunted into some care home... I just don't want to think what it would be like, taking your last breath and all that, just strange to think about, so I just don't think about that kind of thing.

[Zac]

Nope, it happens to everybody but having a painful death does scare me, I don't believe in the after-life either so I just think that when when you're dead, that's the end of you and your life's over. So no, not scared of death, at all.

[merijaan]

No, If I knew it wouldnt hurt I dont giva .........

[Iceman]

No doesnt bother me in the slightest I lost the person closest to me and it hurt like hell and still does, I find that worse than the thought of me dying.

[ILoveTRW]

anyone who says that death doesn't scare them is a barefaced liar or just mentally retarded.

people who are not concerned about death and their position after death obviously have little intellect and are therefore unable to contemplate and understand death.

[Tom4784]

It unnerves me, I tend not to think about it much. I accept that it's one day going to happen and it's a fact of life though. I just like to keep it out of mind.

Yes Young Dezzy


Stay Strong.

[ManicWolf]

It kinda scares me too when I think about it too much. It's kind of ironic that in my teens I actually wanted to die, and now the though of it happening scares the hell outta me. I can't seem to get a happy medium where I don't wanna die, but aren't scared of it either!

Also, everyone else is so blase about it, saying things like "there's no point in being scared, everyone has to die" as if that's supposed to make you feel any better! Whereas it generally makes me feel worse. I sometimes feel like the only person around who is actually freaked out by the idea of dying.

[TheMac]

I know they seem like the same thing, but i'm more scared of my life finishing than death. Like will I know that life is over and just be in existense and stuff, it's weird to think about.

[xDramatick]

I'm scared of death.
I know it's gonna happen someday but I really hate thinking about it.
Just.. not knowing anything. Not being able to do anything.
Being a corpse. Laying in a coffin buried deep underground, no knowledge, no mind, no thoughts, no breath. Forever.
Just the thought gives me shivers, I hate thinking about it.

So have I little intellect or am I mentally retarded? Just because I'm not that bothered about dying, I mean it's gonna happen why dwell over it.

[Jen]

I agree with TheMac.
I'm not afraid of dieing as I know there is life after death, it's the fact I will not be living with the people I love, that scares me, the aloneness of death and the fact I will not be living as me.

You are way off, it doesn't scare you if you do not think about it. Life is for living not worrying about when it's all over.
