hi i am going through the same problem and i know how all you guys feel i have a 4 YEAR old son and i constantly think about what if something will happen to him if i loose him i cant focus i feel sad often but i have been studying with the jehovah witnesses and i have learned alot that we need to believe that there is god and he loves us and all of those calling him for help he will help us and i have been able to read the bible and god has lots of promises and this gives me faith that he is there for me and i will get better some day also talking to psychologist might help so i know it hard not to worry but remember that god is with you and one day everything will be ok.
fear of death by: SeravialAngel@aol.com
Like so many others, I as well, have a great fear of death. I obsessed for several years about committing suicide because I was so afraid of dying, it may sound backwards but the thought of taking control of my own death brought me peace of mind. The only good advice that I can offer is to try to find a semblance of peace when you are thinking of death. This particular fear is not one that can be conquered easily, and those of us it preys upon suffer for years. It may very well follow you you're entire life. There is nothing wrong with that, but do what you can to fight it from controlling your life. I personally do not believe in an afterlife, many I know find peace thinking there is something after this one. I want to but I just don't feel it. Nor do I believe in God, but I like to think if there is a God out there, they know I am a good person at heart and would judge me accordingly when my time comes. Life is an amazing adventure that will allow you to feel a rollercoaster of emotions from one day to the next. There is no one true piece of advice that can ease your fears, just look into yourself and address them the best you can. And Hopefully in time you will begin to feel more at ease and capable of coping with the idea of ending of your life's journey. Remember that we all die and in that we are all united in a bond that every living thing must share. Best of luck to you, I left my email for anyone that reads this to share their stories with me. I truly understand how death makes you feel and I pray that helping ease that burden on others will ease my own unfortunate fear of demise.
grieving by: Anonymous
A friend's 8 month old daughter passed away last week. I was devastated, attended the viewing but not the funeral because of living in a different state. Everynight i cry myself to sleep thinking about my daughters a 14 and a 10 year old. Can't imagine myself without them in my life. I can't help myself but think, what if? and i don't think i will handle it the way my friend did. i need help and i didn't tell anybody how i'm feeling :(
I am the same! by: Julia
I had to comment as reading your blog was like reading my own life, I also am a little relieved that I now know I'm not on my own. Just recently my fear of death has gotten worse, I like you wake up in the middle of the night gasping for breath or thinking "I'm going to die and I don't want to die" I talk to people about it but they just say well you can't do anything about it so why worry? But I can't help it, it's on my mind most of the time, I think it's the not knowing if there's anything else beyond this life that scares me, the thought of nothing forever, not existing drives me nearly insane. Well I thought I would just let you know that you aren't alone either and if you ever want to talk just drop me a line. juethefox at googlemail.com
