I'm 15 years old. Thinking about death always terrifies me. I always imagine dying and asking myself "why am I born if I will just die?" This anxiety is very annoying af.

Imagine thinking you’re dying 24/7 . It’s me, I struggle with death anxiety and fear of heart problems even though I don’t have a bad heart. It destroyes my life and the anxiety is probably really extreme compared to normal..

I've had death anxiety as long as i can remember, even way back as a young kid. so yeah, super stable, though i have to say it was worst from my late teens to mid 20s. generally though it never significantly affected my day to day life or me being able to function. That is because for me these thoughts always come just before falling asleep and then result in an additional hour or two of wakefulness. Usually trying to conjure up some pre-sleep 'daydream' helps me to finally go to sleep. As a kid I had to have an audio book running, else I wouldn't be able to sleep. I needed my attention to be on something external so my thoughts wouldn't linger 'there'. Nevertheless, i cannot remember a single day of my life, that I wouldn't have had the thought of the reality of death, followed by a sharp pain about it. Not a single day. It's like I'm grieving for the inevitable loss of my own existence at least for a few minutes every single day. Either way, after realizing that these thoughts most likely will never go away, I've found it helpful to draw something positive out of it. I will direct the thought into something like 'You grieve your own death now already, because life actually has been treating you quite well and you are enjoying yourself and even if there is hardship you have hope and the will to live on.' Doesn't make the thoughts go away, but makes them more bearable. Still I find it quite the sick joke of evolution to wire this daily 'memento mori' alarm into people's brains with various time settings (in my case reliably set to 11pm to 2 am).

My death anxiety has sent me through a lot of addictions. Weed, booze, sex. Currently, I'm a drug addict. And I'm working on being completely sober. I realized that I'm starting to heal my death anxiety. I want to get rid of it, so I can live my live without addictions.

For the past month or so, the thought that one day; myself and all my loved ones will pass away and stop “experiencing” has really been bothering me. Im 16 years old; turning 17 in 5 months, and I find it interesting that in these comment sections many other kids my age are experiencing the same intrusive thoughts rather than elderly people who are much closer to death. Why does the brain love obsessing about death so early on?

Thank you for making this! Very informative and speaks to what I've experienced. I've suffered from severe death anxiety that was maladaptive and made it hard for me to live my life. Along with Dialectical Behavioral Therapy for PTSD that has really helped me, the youtube channel Ask A Mortician has changed how I view death and mortality. She practices what she calls 'death positivity'. I've learned to embrace mortality as what makes life so valuable and confront the absolute reality of death, the thing we all have in common, instead of trying desperately to avoid it. It's been life changing.

I’m 20 right now and i have a very high death anxiety and I’ve only realized this since last 2-3 years i came to realize this as i went into depression and went to the point where I’d want to kill myself and its getting worse even today I have autism an intense fear of death anxiety and depression which are all mixing to the point where i want to die but I can’t which some people call good because it means I won’t kill myself but for me this is the worst thing imaginable I can’t escape the thought of death at all times and sometimes it goes too far and i go from an anxiety attack to a full blown panic attack with nothing and no one to distract me away from it, its the worst thing i have ever felt in my entire life and i now have to feel it every day and I’m afraid of telling others about whats wrong because my brain always tells me that I’m just trying to get attention or that others have it worse, I can’t sleep I can’t focus I can’t think straight and now I’m stuck and its getting worse the longer its going on and because of this i have said horrible things to others because I can’t tell or feel emotions or sympathy anymore because I’m constantly overwhelmed by this which is making me not think about what i say leading to offending others or making them mad or downright very questionable things which could be considered actual jail time despite me not meaning anything of that kind this also makes me feel more down and down and feeling like i should just die but that in turn just starts the entire cycle again and again, if anyone is reading this I’m very sorry because you probably had an aneurism trying to read all this but also thank you for trying to read it i just don’t know what to do anymore and i feel like I actually don’t know who i am anymore

Weird how it’s a trait. I never had death anxiety until this year and surprisingly not over COVID. I think in my case it’s a manifestation of my Generalized Anxiety and I have panic attacks that are tied to both Health and Death. I am healthy and I am not diagnosed with those other forms except generalized. I don’t have a believe that I have any illness but i do have a fear that I will get one. Anyway I would imagine that if it were a trait it would have shown with my anxiety around my diagnosis at age 12 (I’m 22) of before.

I generally try my best not to dwell on the subject of death for prolonged periods as it almost always leads me to have a small panic attack where it feels like the curtains are pulled back on my own existence and for a brief and terrifying moment that realisation that I will no longer exist one day presents itself. I find it hard to put into words exactly what this feels like, but im pretty sure that my fight & flight response kicks in, as though I am in immediate danger even though i know im not.

I have a fear of dying in a traumatic way like a car crash and I also have a fear of my loved ones dying, which is especially overwhelming. I used to be scared of car crashes when I was a child but 3 years ago I got in an accident, and while I felt elated that I survived for a good few years, I suddenly became terrified of it occurring again. It gives me intense anxiety and feelings of shame because I'm 25 and my parents still drive me around. I see my friends go on and do things that make me afraid so easily and it makes me feel like a failure.

One of the doctors once told me I might have cancer in my throat but it ended up being a normal bone. Since then I have death anxiety and keep feeling like I’m dying everyday even if my blood tests and echo are normal. I’m getting physical symptoms from anxiety and Everytime it hits I think oh shit I’m dying. I want to go do a full body check at the hospital or clinic but everyone is saying it’s just stress and I don’t need it. It’s really annoying and people around me are tired of hearing me complain, but I can’t help myself thinking what if I’m dying, or my dad dies or my mom etc etc, what if I’m sick and no one knows

I'm so scared of dying, I just want to live forever. but I am aware that all beings will die. At first I was afraid to die that I didn't dare to leave the house, afraid to meet strangers, afraid to do the activities I usually do. now I'm afraid to die because of the sin I've ever made, it's really scary. I'm 13 years old and still too young to think about such things. I want to enjoy my life, I want to be successful and make my mother happy. I really think it's been a month and five days. I really feel anxious and scared every day! I just want to live forever, I want me to be immortal. but i know one day i will die.

There are several ideas to try Work out why you are anxious - the first step to solving a problem is to understand why it is there. Be at ease about yourself - this makes it easier when you are with others. Challenge youself - you will gain confidence by taking action - especially by doing things that push your boundaries.

I got Thanatophobia when I was 7… I can remember all of the sleepless nights trying to not cry. My parents didn’t know for years… i still have memory’s of all The pain I went through as a kid.. I didn’t have a lot of friends at the time.. i hated most social interactions and most days of school I starved myself to get to a empty table so I didn’t have to go trough the pain of just walking up down and back like 12 times looking for a place to sit when I decided to get lunch.. in my line order as a kid I was in the back of the line so when I wanted to sit near someone the table would be full if I didn’t starve myself.. the only people that I trust is my family.. every time I go out with them as a kid I feel like they are gonna get in a car crash or somthing bad will happen to them.. my sister hates when I get something she doesn’t.. I beg my mom or dad to get somthing just to spare me and my mom and dad from my sister.. I can’t tell anybody in my family things except my sister.. my grandma hates my mom because her parents are dead.. my dad acts like nothings wrong and my moms just being dramatic.. she starved my mom alot and when we ask my dad “why does grandma starve mom?” He will respond like “can we not talk about this?” Or “she didn’t she would never” my moms clearly tired of it she’s scared me as a kid when she’s really tired of my grandma and dad she would sometimes say she’s leaving me and this family.. all my family loves me… sometimes..

I do not have an anxiety about death, or any fear about death. However, I do have some anxieties relating to being alive, such as intense or drawn-out suffering. A slow death, where relief is so close, yet too far away, is not good. Most of my anxiety revolves around the impact of High-Functioning Autism, of which I received a formal diagnosis near the end of last year, just before my 53rd birthday. If society were more accepting, and if employers were more accepting and I could actually keep a job and take care of myself, then I'd probably not have this anxiety. Death is easy. It's life that's the tricky part for me.

I don't know why I'm like this. At first I was very afraid of death, every time I thought about death I had a panic attack that made me think I was dying. I couldn't sleep, I was so scared to sleep. after a month my mind finally improved, but physically I still feel tight, chest pain, dizziness, and sometimes tingling. but for some reason after my period about 5 days ago the anxiety appeared and I think it's more scary. I was so worried about the sins I had ever committed. strange, why my anxiety suddenly changed. I fear the process of death, the thing that happens after death whether I go to hell or heaven. and her anxiety is real every day and every moment. but the difference is now the sensation is not as bad as before. only heart palpitations, headaches, neck pain, some body parts aches. Honestly, I'm more afraid of this anxiety for some reason. I'm also afraid to sleep again. I became afraid of the dark, and alone. I always make scenarios like for example I was walking towards my brother's room, suddenly I died suddenly. like that, I feel very disturbed. even though at that time it had really improved but why did it turn out like this huh? Anyone knows? oh yeah i'm only 13 years old and i think i'm still too young to think about things like this. I want to enjoy my youth like any other teenager. every time I feel happy, suddenly I remember death. I just want to live forever. I love life, I don't want to die. I don't even dare to leave the house, even though I'm at home I'm only in my room. because I was afraid that something unexpected would happen.

All I know is that I share your sentiments. The thought of everything just going black for eternity, just like pulling the plug on a computer makes me sick to my stomach. However, people do not know everything -that includes atheists. The mathematical chances of the earth being the exact distance from the sun to sustain life are next to virtually being impossible. They expect me to believe everything around here came from a huge bang of total chaos. And out of that Chaos we got the complexity of the universe - DNA, the structure of cells and molecules, the beauty of a blue sky, green grass, oceans, snow. We know at what temperature water freezes, melts, and turns to steam. These are things that just can’t happen randomly; there’s no way. If there was nothing before the bang then what caused it? There is too much structure and order for this to be some random freak accident. That being said, I don’t know what to believe in regard to God. I know this universe has a grand architect; I can see that just by observation. What gives me the most trouble is coming to terms exactly what the truth is about us, and God, and eternity. If we go by the Bible then God knows everything from beginning to end. So why would a loving God create Satan knowing full well that he would fall and take billions of people into eternal hell with him? It does not add up. These are the kind of thoughts that keep me up at night. I often wish I was never born, so I didn’t have to deal with all this death, loss, and fear.

Like I know everyone and everything dies and there are millions of ways to tie but that proses the body goes through, suffercating or cloaking or feeling faint my fight or flight response starts to activate and my heart races and I feel fear because I can't help my brain fearing that feeling of no breath. Then ppl seeing my lifeless body and my family will they even care or be sad... im glad to see I'm not the only one suffering. Finding groups of ppl feeling the same would help.

In between waking up and falling back asleep I feel loopy. I have a weird feeling ab me and cant stop thinking about death. I have thoughts that don’t make sense at all about it.. like that I am dead or am dieing laying there. Sometimes I convince myself the reason why is that I have a ‘ mode’ turned on .. or I’m in some altered state. So is that just bc I’m loopy and half asleep or am I actually psychotic?

No one was anxious about being born, no one decided what birth they would take. So why are people anxious about death? It is because we have forgotten our true identity. We are already immortal, eternal spirit-souls trapped inside a material body. We have an eternal relationship with the Supreme Soul or the Personality of Godhead. We are just changing material bodies life after life. It is a matter getting released from the cycle of birth and death. Chant the mantra: "Hare Krishna Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama, Rama Rama Hare Hare". You have nothing to lose. Hurry, hurry!

@DrumWild

It doesn't seem to be. Religious people tend to push for laws against physician-assisted suicide, for example, because the idea of this arouses a high level of fear. Religious people are so afraid of death that they will do anything and everything to avoid death for as long as possible. This happens in America, because one's religious designation is typically a hollow label. They wear it like a Star-Bellied Sneetch, so that they can fit in with everyone else, while being better than those who do not have the label. Their fear of death is representative of a very low level of faith. According to a Pew Research study, more than half of Americans change religions at least once, with the primary motivation being "boredom." If they truly believed in their religion, then they'd take it more seriously, and would most definitely NOT be bored by it. Also according to Pew, fewer than 7% of American Christians read their bibles. How can they actually get anything out of this? They will say that a deceased loved one is "in a better place," and most of the time this is something that they say to try to comfort another person, while also trying to convince themselves. I have never been religious in my life, as I was never indoctrinated as a child. Indoctrination is essential to belief, and it involves such tools as guilt and fear. Some may go on to sincerely believe. But most will just say they believe, as the fear that was instilled in them as a child functions in the background of their lives. With fear constantly in the background, one would have to wonder if it does not surface. Of course, their fear of death could be associated with the fear of eternal damnation in hell. Maybe they're not good enough, or have doubts. I have no fear of death, for I view it as possibly being similar to my state of being before birth, which involved no fear of any kind. I do have concerns about other things, like dying slowly and painfully, or suffering. *_“Some things are worse than death... If a man lives, he must still live with himself.”_* ― Timothy B.

What you say kind of resonates with me. Thanks for this video so much. I saw something triggering (a news about a black hole swallowing Earth) and that sends me spiraling with this fear. First, it was about losing my mom, my dog, my little sister. Now, I fear that I'll die. And what is worse is that I have dates popping in my head, like once it was "You'll be dead in one year", then "You'll die soon" feeling, then you'll die in 50 years, and then back to the one year shit and now it's June 2024. It's exhausting and I just accepted it could be my fate. I hope it's not. It's probably OCD thing because I already had a thought pattern for another thing that lasted 3 years and a "I'm gonna die" crisis when I was younger. Can someone tell me if it's gonna happen or if it's just anxiety? I think it is but I'm pretty scared.

I’ve had death anxiety and it comes and goes. And when it comes back is a feeling of dread, and extreme fear. All episodes are triggered by certain things, like drugs triggers it. Bupropion and Ritalin have work for me in te past. Bad Nicotine brand patches and weed triggers it very fast. Detox from Ritalin or nicotine also triggers it.

Everyone is terrified and they should be. People who say they aren't are lying or too afraid to admit it. If you weren't afraid, you wouldn't do things to avoid death, and so you would likely already be dead. Older people are too terrified to admit it. The assessment that old people are not terrified is self-reported. This guy is just trying to make you feel better.

I never thought this was a thing :O I'm not sure if I do have this, but when thinking about like my further, sometimes my thought very quickly links it to death, which results in me having small panic attacks (gasp for air, panicked)

I sometimes worry about dying but I always come back to my family dying, like my dad he uses planes a lot and looking at plane crashes give me anxiety attacks. It stays there in the back of my mind 0.06 percentage of 1,000,000 plane crashes but what if my dad is happens to be apart of that percentage?

Can you update your comments on this now since we have lived thru and are continuing to live with Covid and a potentially out of control Putin and civil unrest in USA ? What is a constant worry that time to live happily is running out ? Or already has. That nothing good is ever going to happen (to me) again.

Death anxiety is the fear of not living your full life. Fear of regret.

It's normal if you fear death, everyone do, but i can say something like this : accept it, before you were born, you' re nothing. You will never know anything if you wouldn't come to this life and death is the same ! your consciousness is gone after you died ! you won't feel anything, you won't know anything, no pain, no thought, just like a sleep but you will never wake up again. I mean when you're sleeping you won't know anything right ? ( except dreaming ) so death is just like that, it's the same. **YOU HAVE DIED SO MANY TIME**
