Is it normal to feel out of breath when you think about death?

I sometimes lay awake at night or even during the day time I will start thinking of death and if there is such thing as reincarnation, I begin to feel like I can't breathe just thinking that life is never ending, in some way. Does anyone else feel like this? Is this normal?

    Sometimes i am just doing something random, then it dawns on me, i am a person capable of thoughts and movement i am so amazing the whole human race and body is, i can control thoughts think about images, but who am i? how did this all happen what is life how is this accomplished how am i thinking about things, what about death? does it hurt, do i die for real and is my soul in a neverending cycle? what is this. but then i just go watch mind numbing tv and clam myself, u r not alone don't worry :)

    The breathlesness is down to anxiety caused by your thoughts. There are some simple breathing exercises you can do help with this, (google it) if severe seek professional help,

    I used to get very bad with this thought. I still have the thought but I'm not frightened. Read a book while you're in bed, but keep the light on of course. Just read untill you get so tired. It helped me overcome my fear.

    Your overwhelming yourself. Calm, everything will work itself out.
