Is it normal that i sometimes think i would die in my sleep?

Before I start, I just want you to know that I’m not suffering from depression or have an illness.

But sometimes, before I go to sleep I clear my browser history and other things I’m embrassed about just in case I die in my sleep. (It’s not like I’m looking inappropriate things lol). But do you think something is wrong with me or do you think this is just normal? To think that I might not be able wake up again?

    Why think about it? It's all right even if you do. However that's very rare. SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome) is an example where people die in their sleep, but that's at a very young age. Even if you die, you're more likely to wake up clearly before you do.

    It's not normal to think seriously that you're about to die in your sleep if you're younger, or even if you're like 40 something, dying in your sleep is still rare. When you're 80 something, then it's more likely. Dying in your sleep when younger can happen though if you're taking certain drugs though, especially if it's too high a dose of anything that's a suppressent that slows the breathing (sleeping pill, benzo, opiate), or if you're mixing different suppresents together.

          Well.. I'm usually the one to help others out but.. I think you shouldn't be to hard on yourself, nor care what others thi I about you. For those that hate you, there will also be those who love you. That's how it works its weird I know. I'm sure there are certain quirks that you attain that makes you happy? Everybody has something that keeps them alive, you just have to find yours.

    One thing is certain: it's going to happen to you sooner or later.

    Best not to dwell on that thought too much since it can be paralysing, but it's good to keep the thought in the back of your head that your time is limited.
