what are you feelings towards death?
 

(sorry if this is a repeat, if it is feel free to lock it)
Whenever I think about being dead, I just get so freaked out.
Its just the idea of being could and lifeless, it just freaks me out so
much. I swear my heart just skips a beat at the verry thought of it.

so what do you think of death?
Are you afraid, or ok with it?

I used to be afraid of death. Well not death, but the pain that came with it. Because I am christian I don't fear after death. And I think that over time I have growing used to the idea of having to go through death, because we all have to face it. I don't think about it as much. I don't mind

I'm afraid of death. I mean, I'm not afraid if I knew I would die in my sleep but I'm afraid of death. Who knows...they say its just your soul that goes to heaven. Can you see heaven or are you just...there...? The only reason I can take death is if I know I'll die in my sleep...painlessly. Fearlessly....Happy. I pray to God I'll go to Heaven and only die in my sleep.

I grew up in a house behind a cemetery. And the house had a balcony that overlooked it on the second floor. My parents and I used to sit on the back porch and watch funerals. Thanks to this, I'm fairly impassive about death. It could just be a side effect of depression though, I guess, and the fact that I feel often that I WANT to die. I'm not afraid of death in the least bit. I don't care how it happens or when it happens. I don't care what happens after. I truly think living this life is a thousand times worse than what could happen in the afterlife, and I am a good person, so I have no fear of going to hell. Even so, I definitely wouldn't be in the lower levels of hell: maybe the first...the solemn open fields, hollow and empty...and lonely...it doesn't really sound so bad.

well today I felt like dieing so I layed on the floor for an hour or so ^^; momentary laps of depression, that somtimes happens. Though personally I'm not afraid of death, maybe cause I was born died, so it doesn't really frighten me though I am afraid dieing and then wishing I had done somthing, like in movie they call it "unfinished buisness"

Death doesn't really effect me.
I rarely feel mournful when people die. That said, the only people I've known who have died were old or had terminal diseases and in both cases I believe they were better off dead.

Mine own death I don't really think about. I don't think of the future and how I'll die or what it will be like.

I figure, everyone has to die some time why be afraid of it? The idea of being pregnant and having a child is much more terrifying to me.

@Kalliste- I have about the same thoughts I wouldn't want to get old and be bound to somthing that was keeping me living I would rather they pulled it and let me die, but I've never met anyone that has died

Same RainbowSuicide. It's one of the reasons I can't work out why Euthanasia is illegal. If you have no chance of getting better or your body is deteriorating from old age you should be given the choice.

@Kalliste- well yeah because just laying there waiting to die really isn't living, well in anycase you have no life anymore

@rainbowsuicide: I guess its just one of those things. The system could be abused so they don't implement it. Seems kinda similar to abortion to me... they're both kind of ways of ending life.

@Kalliste- true, though this may sound cruel but I'm not abosed to abortion I think that if you really shouldn't have had a kid why keep it if you can't take care of it, though when it's still in it's early stages does it have a soul yet so is it really taking a life?

@RainbowSuicide: I'm pro choice so I have no problems with abortion either. I guess it's another view on how death doesn't effect me. If you can call abortion that anyway.

I think they're similar though, it should be up the individual I think. If you don't agree with it, don't go through with it.

I think I'd much prefer to be dead by 80 than losing control of my mind and body.

@Kalliste- exactly your chose is all that matter, though there are people that get so pissed at people that want to go through with abortion, but really it's good for the population since there are to many people already in the world

i belive death is part of nature. and there's no one who can escape it. it just depends how you see it. sucicde is death but a terrible way to die. which only leads to eternal suffering in hell. but if the person dies peacefully, and happy, there're going to be happy forever, no more pain, suffering, just pure happiness.

I don't think I'm afraid of being dead ... I'm afraid of HOW i'll die. D':
Not a big fan of suffering.

I don't like having a reason to like life... I was getting used to not having one.
Crap. ;[

Both of my parents are dead.

I used to be fascinated by it when I was yonger.

But now, with all the death I am surrounded by, it's no longer interesting, or I often used to think of it as sortof a romantic ending or something...But now..it's just creepy and scary. >:

I also cannot stand the smell of death (or hospitals), it's nauseating.
