I mean, the idea of my existence ceasing is pretty freaky, but I am at peace with the fact that it is the cycle of life.

For people who strongly believe in an afterlife and religious faith, I don't see why they should fear it at all.

Edit - Also the alternative to never truly dying is that you will exist in some form of life FOREVER and there will never be an end, and contemplating being trapped in infinite time is equally freaky.

Id say Im not afraid of death in general. But I would be fearful of a painful death.

Honestly, if you just die in your sleep, you just dont wake up. There isnt anything to be afraid about.

Eh

I'm not afraid of the scream mask but if a guy wearing one jumped around a corner, I'm gonna jump.

I'm not afraid of death, but if a tree is falling on me, I'm gonna dodge it.

So, if you got new tomorrow that you had terminal cancer, and have about 6 months left to live, you wouldn't be scared. Let's say euthanasia is legal where you are, so pain isn't a factor.

Of course no one wants to get cancer and suddenly be told they only have months to live...that's not the same as being scared of death in general

Nope - you can both not want to get a horrific illness and die of it suddenly AND not be scared of death.

Like I said - what's the alternative? Having to sustain your life for hundreds, thousands, or millions of years? Somehow become magic and immortal and not having to worry about it? I don't see any plausible alternatives.

That doesn't sound painless...and just because you aren't scared of death doesn't mean you want to die prematurely, or not live out your life.

If not death then you have to propose an alternative for it that's better. There was a guy that said above that he doesn't want to die but doesn't want to live forever...well guess what?

Yea I would work on your inner troubles. Being afraid of the gift of life and all the wonders that inevitably come with it is pretty depressing.

I am not afraid of the gift of life. I am afraid of the curses of death or eternity.

I guess the best I can wish for is for oblivion to suddenly come before I realize.

Why care about dying prematurely, if death isn't to be feared? It sounds like you're afraid to miss out on life. Why do you need an alternative? There is no alternative, death is inevitable, yet I'm afraid of it. Unless you think I'm lying that part is totally blown out of the water.

Okay I'm going to leave it at this, you can keep arguing with yourself if you want to and twist words or whatever it is you think you're doing:

- I don't want to not live my life, die prematurely or get a horrific terminal illness
- I'm not scared of death being at the end of living life

I hope this makes sense to you

You can't be very scared of dying when you do some of the shit I do and have done.

6 stories up tying walls together at -30.
Crawling around in skeletal trusses 35+ feet from the ground.
I don't work in those kinds of unsafe conditions anymore, but that's by the policy of the company I work for now. I'd have no issue at Heights doing those things again.

Flogging a dirt bike or race quad around a race track at full buck. Say what you will, paralysis and death are pretty possible there.
Throwing a sportbike into a corner at 3x the caution rated speed limit and feeling the rear end step out a little.
That's my hobbies. I go out and do those things for fun.

You just have to be 100% committed with stuff like that. And that attitude tends to bleed into the rest of your life. I'm not scared of dying. Everyone dies. I'm not going out LOOKING to die, and I use appropriate apparel and technique for what I'm doing.

But in day to day life, I'm not scared.

It doesn't. The only way it would make sense, is if you think you'll stop caring about life, when you get older. You can accept death and your own mortality, that doesn't mean you don't fear it.

Oblivion is literally worse than any curse imaginable

But if it comes suddenly, then you just cease to exist. You can't feel if you aren't.

That just means you wouldn't have time to fear it in the moment. The idea of oblivion is still scary.

You can most definitely fear death at a young age and not fear death at an old age.

So, you are currently afraid to of death?

Im afraid of not being able to think, but Im more afraid of the pain/fear that comes beforehand.

Presumably if you have no consciousness you wont be able to fear the unkown.

But then again we also dont know if thats what will happen.

I think it depends. Some people have just never been to a point in which they fully realize their mortality, but some people literally just aren't afraid or are able to delude themselves or believe in some kind of afterlife or reincarnation. A believe a very large portion of people that think they aren't afraid are probably deluding themselves though, so mostly C.

Hard to say what I would feel then, tbh, but the idea doesn't really scare me today. At least, not the death part. Cancer can have a lot of other effects that I definitely do fear.
