My main concern is for an end that painfully lingers, involves long-term degeneration, or results in some sort of helplessness. But a death that's just flip-the-switch, fade-to-black doesn't bother me at all.
This. Death itself will just be a return to the same nothingness that we experienced before we were born. We experienced nothing before we were born, and we will experience nothing again after we are dead. The process of actually dying though can be scary, because there are many slow and painful ways to die. That is what I actually dread most is a slow and painful death.
But that's what I'm afraid of. The nothingness. I really hope there is something to look forward to after death. But if there is nothing, then that's what scares me. I hate thinking that nothingness is all that's left afterwards...
Thing is if its nothingness you'll be unable to care once you're dead
Doesn't make me fear it any less...I don't want there to be nothingness. I don't want to know there's nothingness. Until I know there is something other than nothingness for sure, I will fear it. And I mostly likely won't know for sure until I die. So, I will fear it until I die.
To each their own. I view the nothingness as a never ending sleep. And i do love my sleep
I love my sleep, too. Hard to enjoy it when you never wake up, though... I usually don't realize how much I enjoyed it until I'm awake..

The difference being I've actually experienced life partly now thus don't want it to end.
Basically, this. The nothingness was ok before because I didn't exist, and because I hadn't experienced living. Now that I know what living is, why would I want to be dead and gone back to the nothingness... ---
