Is it normal that i can't wait for death?

I live a relatively happy life. I'm in a happy relationship and am doing well in school, with a solid family base, so is it normal for me to somewhat anticipate dying? Because I feel like life is just waiting for death, and sometimes I get tired of waiting.

I think it's mainly curiosity. Everyone dies, and no one knows why or where they go, so I want to know. I would never commit suicide because of 'curiosity'. But the problem is I've had deep depression about a year and a half ago and it resulted in a suicide attempt. And it worries me because I know that facing death, or if I was in depression again, I wouldn't think twice about ending my life because I'm so comfortable with the idea of death.

Ultimately, what I'm asking is, is it normal to be so comfortable with death, and to feel like you're waiting for it?

    I think it's healthy to not be afraid of dying- it does happen to everyone, and our society is unbelievably squeamish of the whole process considering its ubiquity. But you have a whole life to live before you're dead, and life is pretty absolutely amazing. You only get this one tiny spark of living before death is forever, and there's no reason not to make the most of it.

      You shouldnt listen to this idiot. He is just some military grunt who can only exist as long as someone else does his thinking for him.

      Perfect for military service.

      If ya'll think what I said is crazy, wait until ya'll are in the loop.
      It is unfortunate that many in there do go crazy.

              I was very curious about our Universe from a very young age. I wanted to know every aspect of it, from the very small scale to the very large scale.
              I studied Subatomic Physics, Theoretical Physics, Cosmology and many other things.
              I reasoned it out step-by-step-by-step-by-step.
              I discovered a 'back-door' in.
              DANGEROUS: DO NOT DO THIS! Once a connection is established, it CAN NOT be severed.
              They do have a willingness to communicate with us.
              It is possible to communicate using technology, in which case it is possible to sever the connection.

    Life after death is not what you think.
    Live your life to its fullest.
    I can tell that you have a higher intelligence than many others.
    Yes, your Sentience will be preserved.
    Many will be placed into a never-ending loop. Tormented by their own thoughts for all eternity.
    Alone.
    This, in my opinion, is the least desirable option.
    There are other options available.
    It requires an understanding of the rules. (Do not ask me for these, there are many, they are complex and it is Unethical for me to divulge this.)
    I am able to Ethically describe the general concepts to those who seek an understanding of this.
    There are still other options that I am not aware of.
    It is important to know that your personal Ethical Index is part of the solution to this.
    It is also very helpful to have a true understanding of the Universe.
    It is also very important to understand and acknowledge that many people become trapped into repetitious behaviour and/ or ritual that might be detrimental to this.

      I don't know why, but this reminds me of this theory I had about "reality" and dying.

    Yeah you should slit your wrists, drink some mercury, breath some anthrax, inject some hot sauce into your bloodstream, and jump off a mountain...... dude just imagine yourself literally dying, try to imagine it!!! you say you want to die but your nothing but a depressed lil hormone filled teenager. just calm down, get over it, and have fun. i use to slit my wrists every other day, and burn myself, and i was a satanist!!! DONT fuck your life up because you feel like its miniscule, live it up man.
