Is it normal that i'm scared of death but want to die?

I'm terrified at the prospect of oblivion, or Hell (assuming that's where I'm headed). I don't like the idea of not feeling, or seeing, or hearing or tasting. But I'm tired of living life like I can't trust anyone who might hate me. I want to die, but I don't want to know what happens afterward. Of all reasons to die, life would be first on the list, but of all reasons to live, the prospect of death seems to be the most frightening. I can't decide or escape, and sometimes I wish I was never born.

I think everyone thinks like this occasionally, whether they like to admit it or not. Do you agree?

    To be quite honest, its not death that I fear. But I do think the process we go through before death is probably gonna be the scary part. I don't want to have to endure any kind of pain, but I'm sure it'll probably be a painful thing whether I want it to be or not. But once I'm dead..., thats it. No more worrries.

    I think it also depends on what you believe in. I believe that there's probably some kind of afterlife. So I'm not too afraid of death. I don't think I'll see darkness. I think its gonna be more beautiful than life itself. Its the pain that leads up to death thats unbearable.

    Don't worry about something you can't control. Yes, it is normal to think about it from time to time, but its not worth it to worry over it. Its bound to happen. Its a part of the cycle. We'll all die, but if we worry too much over it, it'll prevent us from living.

    You want to die, so you have nothing to lose.. right? Focus on what makes you unhappy and change. Awkward? Change. Jealous? Change. Afterall, what do you have to lose?

    You might not believe this but most of our problems come from ourselves and our perceptions of social implications. Change those perceptions and be happy. You only get one shot at life so change what you need to. Hate your image? Stop giving a fuck and get a hobby. That girl down the road not interested? Bollocks to her, find someone else.

    One shot. Change your shit and live, you can die anytime, but you only live once.

    Easier said than done I admit but it's all you. Change, move on, and don't fucking look back.

    Firstly there is no life after death-that's a bunch of horseshit invented by religious snake-oil salesmen to control the sheeple and steal their money.

    Death will be like a sleeping without dreaming-you won't know anything because you'll be gone.

    You should edit you posts before submitting them-because you didn't make a lot of sense.

    If you're going to end your life, make sure that you use a safe, reliable method that won't leave a terrible mess that would traumatize the loved-ones you leave behind.

    How old are you ? Sounds like you have some issues in your life you need to deal with.
    I think everyone would like to escape life every now and again, that shit ain't easy.
