I would be laughing and everything, and then all of a sudden, my mind will say "im going to die someday * and my emotions change
Same here
Same, I'm struggling with it
@@joyakhan6982 want to talk about it?
true
Samee 😢
i don’t want to forgot my amazing memories. i WANT to see my dead loved ones.
i don’t want to be in a state of un-existence
i don’t want to be forgotten
I hear you. I empathise with that.
This perfectly encaptures what I feel. Also that I don't want to simply cease to exist, gone, reduced to not even atoms. Horrifying, honestly
@@karlvalteroja4675I just can’t phathom being non existent for eternity in a dark lonely abyss unAble to feel hear smell see I just can’t comprehend it and I get really sad thinking about my children sometimes I wonder why I even brought them into this world
Same ToT
Yes! I want to keep “feeling”, I want to live even if that includes sadness in it. I don’t want to sleep and not wake up forever. I dont want to die and make the people I know sad, nor do I want to outlive them. I don’t want to eventually be forgotten and never be mentioned ever again.
Death is not problem . the mystery after death is problem . ' What will happen to me ??' I think this every night
Don't think too much.... Just know that everyone is going to die not u alone... Just accept it and everything will be alright my friend ❤❤
That's exactly how I feel every day
Right? What if there really is a Jesus and u were supposed to follow the Bible or go to hell ? What if that really happens ? No matter how good of a person you were, you didn’t believe and follow the Bible and go straight to hell and burn for eternity and tormented. Or what if nothing happens? What if you become a ghost? What if you’re trapped between sides? What if you start life over again as a baby and don’t remember but it’s the year huh were born again all over
@@goldiegoldenbear7282 Even if there is a God, he will not punish us for something wrong we didn't do knowingly. Just lead a good life, help others, and let's be grateful for the life we got ❤
@@goldiegoldenbear7282 bro bro no personal hate but I'm a HINDU .not disrespecting but .....u.can understand
It's actually about me. I'm terrified of getting older and dying someday, absolutely frightened. I've had this fear since I was a little kid, I remember crying at the age of 5 or 6 and telling my mum : "I'm going to die someday, it's going to hurt and it'll be terrible"
I still have this kind of crisis from time to time and I can never calm myself down...
I have anxiety I just cry every night just thinking about it
I am sorry to hear that
hey are you okay? every night i get high and have a panic attack about death and eternal oblivion and nothingness. your not alone in your fear and i suggest studying philosophy
@@codeinepizza I am okay it's just sometimes it hits my mind thinking that when I die it's nothing that I won't exist
@@toolsfromtherapy sometimes I think about if I die I would be dead and it will be nothing that I won't exist
@@sadie46563 i know it’s tough but your not alone in this. try studying philosophy or taking magic mushrooms. they help with the fear and acceptance.
This is a great perspective. It is the anxiety that is problem
I’m glad it works for you Cameron.
...I'm a teenager and I'm having this phobia since past few months...it's abt my parents...i fear loosing them every moment...i can't sleep at night...whenever I hear any thing which happens to anyone I just can't control my brain 😣
I had that fear to when I was younger my dad was older when he had me it was a huge fear of mine just hope they live a long life and be grateful for having them now some people don’t it’s a rough reality that’s why it’s important you spend as much time with them as possible bc they won’t be here forever and you’ll regret the times your parents wanted you home with them but you instead went out with friends that you won’t even talk to year later
Hey, i have the same problem since years. I hope it gets better and ykw, we can talk about it here if it's ok
I also want to join.
It really sucks when u had a dream of losing parents.
It breaks my heart into pieces
@@mohiniisrivastava hiii since 1 month i am also going with this problem
I’m afraid of letting go of my anxiety because it feels like I’ve given up once I accept death. I feel like if I keep thinking about it I can figure out a way to not die
Hi to myself 1 month ago! Here’s some things to consider:
1. It’s not possible to fear death because being dead is not something you can experience. What you really fear is not living long enough.
2. Death anxiety tends to lessen as you age, so trust the process of life and don’t worry unnecessarily about the future.
3. These worries are only thoughts. Let yourself to observe these thoughts and how they make you feel.
4. You need other people in your life for you to feel meaning and hope. Connect with others. Experience things. Remeber that you are alive and a part of a greater ecosystem.
5. Death can happen any time, not just at old age so there’s no use dreading growing old because anything could happen. Live each day one at a time.
6. A healthy fear of death is a sign that you are alive.
7. You cannot outrun the darkness, but you can let in light. Allow yourself to experience joy and surrender to the moment.
@@NatLeRat Besides, it's pointless to fear death, just like it's pointless to fear becoming a teen when one is 8 years old. Being grateful for the life we got, and trying to lead a good life with close relationships, will make us happy now, no matter what is there (or isn't) after death.
@@Peter-jo6yu well said :)
Thanks it helped a lot first thing is what bothers me every time ……I associate superstition beliefs and relate everything to what if it’s about me or my family and live in fear …
❤
I just don’t like the fact knowing that one day, my parents, my sister, my family, my friends will all die and be erased from this earth. It’s just sad and depressing and I won’t be able to live without them. And personally, I’m not a believer of heaven or hell so i just think when you die you will be in a pit of darkness for all of eternity, even when the universe ends. (I almost had a panic attack writing this lol)
You made me cry watching this video thanks
I have really bad death anxiety and nothing is helping. I can’t live live being meaningful it sucks.. but god gave me my live. And I will be thankful. 🕊️
I’m glad you have something that comforts uou
Thank u man u really opened my eyes i feel better now
I don't worry, why worry about something you cannot control.
Thanks for that... amazing advice.
Thanks for the kind words 🙏🏽
Suffering a lot but prayer and breathing techniques helping me somehow 🙏
Those can be useful 🙏🏽
I had it when I was 7
Thank you🙏
Romans 10:9 = Eternal life
He helped me he can help you to. You do not have to be afraid in him…
Much love till next time.
Just remember this, the feeling of being dead is basically the feeling before you were even in your moms stomach..
Now I know it's not just me .
Don't worry, we all in the same boat😂😂 You're not alone 🤝
@@Peter-jo6yu ys.. Now iam suffering ths situation
Thank you this helped a lot 😊
Here's another thing:If you feel the fear, you are alive. You are not going to die in that moment, for you are alive.
I fear death a lot now. After I lost my son nothing feels real. Life seems meaningless and everything I ever believed in is questioned
It's only Happens at night dude idk how to explain it 💀💀 only at night ..no matter where If it's dark outside I'm gonna cry 😭
I don’t exactly struggle with it but the 2-3 times in my life where I would just randomly think about how one day I won’t exist anymore is a terrifying thought! Just trying to grasp the concept of non existing & how one day everything I do, everyone I know will be gone! The few times I did this I would get very anxious like one time I was playing a game & I quickly put the controller down then continued pacing in my room back n forth….it’s quite scary I’ll admit so I can only imagine how horrible it is for people who do this a lot!
I can definitely relate to this. Thanks for sharing your experience. And for your empathy.
I would just distract myself out of this world. Reading novel, manga and all kind of entertainment would be enough to stop my anxiety, or atleast make me forget about it for a while
I'm so scared of my friends losing me like I lost my mum
I’m sorry to hear that
I do cry.. Daily..
I’m sorry to hear that
I’m just scared one day I’ll wake up and not be there the next
Allah is with u just be a good person follow the 5 times prayers see you in jannah only for those who believe in if u don’t ignore this :)
I have a death anxiety. I will die in anxiety.
I am sorry to hear that
@@toolsfromtherapy But I guess I have beaten nocturnal panic attacks. I will pass this anxiety.
thank you bro this helped me
I’m glad to hear that!
I have the death anxiety about someone who's so close to me. He's getting older and now I can feel that he isn't the person he used to be a few years ago and every moment I'll be scared. How can I overcome this?
I am sorry to hear this. Unfortunately it is unethical for me to give personalised advice outside of therapy. You can book a session by emailing me on nevern.subermoney@gmail.com
I had this with my dad he had me at 46 he was an amazing man I always had fear and anxiety of losing him until tHe day finally came. My life hasn’t been the same since I don’t even think I grieved yet it’s been over 2 years now
@@Dylmacjr same person I have here🥺

I'm always thinking about parents cause they can die any second
I think nearly every single night what happens after I die and the anxiety is getting the best of me one second I'm thinking normally and then I jus fast forward years after till I die and I think I'll just see nothing hear nothing and I'll just see black and I'm terrified of losing everyone i lovee
I cry every night about this and this did not help😭😭😭
I feared others death but not mine why I feel very guilty and anxiety on others death
i have alot off death anxiety i hate it 😥
Mujhe bhi death anxiety hai
Mujhe bahut dar lagraha hai mujhe raat mein bahut zyada dar hora mere haath pair shake hona shuru hojate har din mujhe yahi dar laga raheta hai ki kahi mujhe raat mein hi kuch nahi hojainga na
Mujhe kuch samjh nahi aara pata nahi mere saath aisa q hora meri heart beat badhne lag jati mujhe kuch samjh nahi aata aisa lagta k mujhe kahi kuch ho na jaye
Aur mein ueh sab baatien kisi ko bata bhi nahi sakti q ki wo log bhi pareshan hojainge aur main kisi ko khil kar nahi bata sakto k mere saath yeh sab hora aur koi mujhe samjhe mujhe bahut dar lagta hai har din
Main khul kar nahi rahe sakhrahi hoon
Don't worry sis I'm also suffering from same situation if you like than you can share me dear sister!! 🥹
@@annu_p3080me 14 sal ka hu or mujhe bi yeh huwa huwa h bari buri tarah aap kuch bata sakti h mujhe?
Main abhi theek hoon
Par raat k time mujhe dar lagne lagta
Kuch nahi wo aahista aahista qatam hojayega inshallah
where are you now?
Bro... just remember we have all felt the feeling of daeth before we were born😅😅😅
Does not help I still feel the same rn😭
If that’s the case you need better ways to cope with anxiety.
@@PunkiMunki Go for a psychotherapy session, and try to change your perceptions positively. When we have negative beliefs and negative perceptions about the world, us etc, those negative perceptions can lead to negative emotions like anxiety.
@@PunkiMunki Try to change the belief that's giving you anxiety about death. For example, instead of thinking "death is so scary, it's so frightening" just try to change that in a positive way like "death is merely a nice long sleep at the end of the day. Who knows maybe I may find that there's an afterlife etc"
But go for a psychotherapy session , especially CBT. They are trained to deal with such anxieties.
Im 12 and im experiencing this
also me i'm 14 can you help me?
@@arhamraza4170 the best tip i can give you is to just enjoy you're life. what he's saying is right, you should spen time with you're friends and DIE happy.
Just live life to the fullest. Die happy@@arhamraza4170
I'm 15 and I'm also experiencing with the same problem
Im 16 but this is helping me
This is not an emotion. This is a sign for the human nature pointing to the afterlife. Dont ignore it..... or else the warning will come true. Instead.... go search for the answer.
I'm just so afraid because when I die. Its just black and I forget my family.
I hear you. It’s so difficult to imagine what it would be like, because we can only think in terms of human experiences like “black” and “forget”. But those are both human experiences.
I over thought it one night and I'm scared of going poof and not exisiting anymore
I’m quite doubtful of this being the case. There’s been NDEs of people who were blind from birth being able to see after leaving their bodies. Look up the story of Vicky Noratuk.
I have not been able to sleep because of it
When my brain comes up to me dying then i just think that after i die my consciousness will go to some else who were just borm when i die
It wont you will cease to exist
Im getting panic attacks every day about it and its actually ruining my life
Im having panic attacks about it now. I'm afraid to go to sleep scared I might not wake up. It went away last year but now the fear is back.
@@angieangiel2666 Don't worry everyone is gonna die just be in present only present present don't think about future
@@nehadevarapalli8022 thanks but I'm a worry wart. I try not to worry but the worry keep coming back.
Struggling with death anxiety. What is the solution
I think a good way to go about it is to look into generalised ways to deal with anxiety and negative thoughts. As it is a form of anxiety.
Man I don't wanna die an I'm only 17😭
Didn't help...
I hear you. It’s not a panacea unfortunately.
best medicine is antidepressant
And what can i do now???
Live in the moment.
❤
I think about maybe never existing again
THANATOPHOBIA - The fear of death
What are physical symptoms of this fear plz help.. I’m having legs problem
If you Google somatic symptoms of anxiety you will find it
@@toolsfromtherapy is this possible reason in legs ?
Same happening to me i also have anxiety and because of that in my body the symptoms is happening like shaking legs shaking hands pain etc
I think you have restless leg syndrome its where you have a constant urge to move your legs and its impossible to keep them still especially at night i have it
Guys you will find your answer with Islam,We Muslims believe that after death we don't go into non existence or become nothing,we believe that life is a test,we worship Allah,after death we enter heaven with Allah Mercy,please try to read the Quran and the hadith of our Messenger and Prophet Muhammad Peace be upon him
Wow 🤩 I feel worse
It could be that you’ve been in denial
Are you a robot
