I frequently visualize my own death (in various ways).

I am not a suicidal person, but I often have visions of my own death. I wouldn't say they always occur randomly because sometimes these thoughts are provoked. However, they usually occur when I am thinking about nothing of importance. I will either be driving to work or simply walking alone and I will visualize myself obtaining an injury (sometimes very treatable other times very horrific). In my visions, I am usually rescued but not saved. Also, I can not help but notice how calm I am while I'm thinking of myself dying. My reaction to these thoughts are almost comparable to any other day dream. In the sense that I just casually think about them.

    I was in a really bad accident about 5 years ago ever since I have envisioned my own death at the age of thirty six I am officially 2 days from my 36th birthday and in these visions I'm not the only one who dies. in these visions either on the day of my death or shortly there after the world ends not entirely sure if it means the end of my world or the end of the world all together. I look at the way this world is heading and for some reason I know that once I go the rest of the world isn't far behind for the love of all that is holy I hope I'm just losing my mind but it truly doesn't feel that way.

    I think that too, I think it's totally normal. I also think about other people being injured or killed and how I would react.

    I think I read somewhere nerve damage can cause people to think about death more often... maybe you got some rare, weird psychosomatic trigger.

    Interesting, because I have a difficult time actually pursuing things unless I can envision myself doing them beforehand. Mostly big decisions, like you mentioned.

    I do this too, as well with my future decisions. I vision every possible outcome and wonder what it would be like if it actually happened, I even vision what the people around me (in the vision) do!
