Do you fear death?

"You're already dead. You were dead the moment you were born. If you can accept that, you can accept anything." :P

I think fear of death is mostly just fear of the unknown - unless you're absolutely 100% secure in your religious beliefs or any other thoughts you might have about 'life after death' then it's scary not to know anything about this inevitable, unavoidable event that could crop up at literally any point in your life; and the lives of everybody you know. I low-key believe in reincarnation and one day I started to think of death as the gauntlet we all pass through, so it stopped being so frightening to me.
However I'm still scared of people like my friends and family dying, there's no getting around that, I think. :V
 
I don't fear death in and of itself, but I fear what happens after death. The inexistence. Faith is something that I still struggle with, so I honestly have no idea what will happen to me afterwards.
 
I know I do even though I try and tell myself I don't because I think I know where I'm going after I die (according to my religion). Regardless of my faith in what I believe, there's still no one who can tell you for 100% sure what happens after you die. I just feel like I have so much to do during my life here on Earth that I don't want it to end suddenly. I'm also afraid of dying a horrible death and suffering, such as being burned alive or being trapped underwater and drowning. Just an overall scary concept, I suppose.
this is how I feel about the morbid topic of death
 
It will happen to everyone, so in terms of fearing actual death, no. But I'm afraid of whether or not it's painful and what would happen after you die. They say you get reborn into an animal/go to heaven, but I'm still unsure.

I hope I get reincarnated as a bird o3o
 
To some degree, yes. But when I get older, probably not.
 
I don't fear death anymore. Seen it too many times for it to become unusual to me.
 
I'm scared of dying, there's so many things I still want to do. I really want to experience being a mother and having children. But I'm way more scared of my loved ones dying... :(
 
No...but I AM afraid of dealing w/ certain life choices I've made after I die! I've read you go through a bit of a "life review" and you really ARE your harshest judge. Still, I'll face those w/ humility and correct them however I can..
 
no, I'm not afraid. I came to terms with my mortality fairly young (around 10 or so). I'm afraid of not having enough time to enjoy the things around me, and afraid of not making enough memories with those I love. Because of this, I try to make each day count though.
 
Sometimes. There are times I'm fully aware that I'll die anyway, I have no choice, what's the point of being scared? Plus, I'm at the point where I just feel like I'm just a walking dead, whatever happens now, happens. There were many times I almost died but I'm still here? So there's no need for me to be afraid anymore, I'm already lucky to be here right now.

But at the same time, I'm just worried of not being alive? ??? Like, I'm here but I don't feel it. And at the same time, I'm also afraid of living. Going through everyday, being scared of just about everything, and idk it's hard to explain,,,, but everyday feels like hell

no, I'm not afraid. I came to terms with my mortality fairly young (around 10 or so)

Same, I like to think this. So when something happens, something bad like if I'm sick or anything, I'm prepared for it.

I have no real fear of death. I see it as a part of life of which I will have to experience one day. A fitting conclusion, if you will. That being said, I don't want to die yet, because I have so many things left to do. xD
