I vividly imagine my own death & constantly worry about bomb dropping.

8 Comments

I have such a horrid fear of death and every year it gets worse. Sometimes I sit in bed and go cold thinking about dying, I have to calm myself down and turn on the tv to put my mind elsewhere. I live in the US and every time I hear a plane overhead I stop and listen to make sure everything is ok; no bombs dropping nor planes crashing into anything. I look at my window at night and visualize an explosion lighting up the curtains for the brief moment until it kills me. I can't stop worrying about it and I don't know what to do. Part of me feels like I should turn to religion but I just can't believe.

    Fear is the motivation behind all imagination. All fear harks back to fear of death. You're just a little more normal than the rest of us. Channel your imagination into something. People who write horror and thrillers and stuff -- they're like you -- scared half to death.

    E n j o y !

    While you're at it worry about a meteor/comet or another planet hitting the earth and wiping us out!
    They say in space things travel in orbit and many things come and go every few hundreds, thousands and millions of years. What's to say a planet sized asteroid or another galaxy hasn't been flying around an orbid for a zillion years and finally it's on our path just in time for us to enjoy it???? lol
    Seriously - life is too fucking short. Don't worry about ANYTHING you can't control. Go out, learn, live and make your mark in this world in a very good way. you're judged by what you do while you're living and those who loved you. Not by anything else.

    Yeah as above I was going to say the same thing. Seriously I mean it, its probably likely that is how u died in the past.

    Just as I have this phobia of sharks and dying in the ocean, I can feel it happening so vividly that I think I have died like that in the past. Its incredibly terrifying.

    Maybe in a past life you died from a bomb and whenever a you hear a plane you think about your death in the past life

    i would say looking into religion is not a bad idea...try something more recent- the newest religion of the world is the bahai faith- i looked into it a bit, there are some wonderful explanations on death and dieing that may help soothe you or give you answers
