Strangely enough, I started doing this again yesterday. I try to avoid the topic because it ends with me being in a terrible mood, but my brain wasn't working properly. It's too soon to tell whether I'll be in the same mood today. It's probable.

As for advice, I don't know if there is any. I'm not sure if anybody could reassure me about the whole thing, I don't know about you, though. I just lock the topic in a cage and stick it in a corner of my brain, I guess you could say:P. Just don't think about it. Sorry for my rubbish advice. Up until yesterday it worked well for me.

Thanks a lot for the feedback!:)

I typically think about it four or five times a day. Having silent debates with myself about existence past the event, how it would affect others, etc. Suicide is a popular topic in my head (I'm not suicidal, just the topic randomly pops in there a lot). I'm not sure if there is any good advice, like the Banana said. But maybe knowing that you're not alone on that may bring some comfort in another way, like not feeling like a morbid freak or a nut-case, or something. :P Sadly, I just got used to the thoughts. I'm terrified of death, but I'm burnt out on reacting to thoughts of it. X.x;

It is absolutely normal. The fact that you would cry about the eventual death of your parents shows that you are human and is a testament to just how much you love them. I'm twenty years old now and sometimes I think about my unborn children and how I would grieve and how much it would hurt if they died. Just the thought would destroy me.

When I about 15 or 16, I was just like you and absolutely terrified of death. Just the thought of it would give me the shakes. I thought about all of the bad things I had done and all of the sins I’d committed and what would happen to me after I died. But I’m older now, and I now realize that life without death is meaningless. Life is supposed to end. If I die, I die. I know someone from that country. And besides, how else could I possibly reunite with my loved ones?

DEATH be not proud, though some have called thee
Mighty and dreadfull, for, thou art not so,
For, those, whom thou think'st, thou dost overthrow,
Die not, poore death, nor yet canst thou kill me...

I too think about dying and it scares me really bad and I. Am 44 I hate every birthday and the thought of leaving my life is a terrifying thought..I have doubts about heaven too ..my brother who was 29 died two years ago maybe it has a lot to do with that!!

I'm not ready for death.
