Answer 3

Find out if there is an afterlife maybe.

If it's the process of death at the root of the fear you could consider making a Living Will out at your Solicitor's office. (not expensive)

Answer 4

if you believe that.. the death of your closest friends and family can break your heart, the death of your self will never hurt... only the.. "dying" can hurt : ) if you believe that... you will not fear death

Answer 5

Death is a part of life, that we all must face eventually...there is no hope of avoiding it, merely delaying it's arrival.  If it's time for you to go, there is no escape, and no where to hide...but until that time comes, you are pretty safe...so go for it!  Embrace the thrill of it all, knowing that you are safe...someday you will be incorrect, but by then, you won't be around to answer for your error.

The key is to live your life while you have it...don't waste years, or even moments paralyzed with fear of a future event that you can not change.  Get out there and have an experience...good or bad, they all make for good stories.

   If you must fear something, fear getting old, and wishing that you had done the things that are within your grasp now.  

Answer 6

death is unknown, the only way to know is to be dead, therefore why are you scared of death if it is unknown. why do you suppose death is a bad thing?  

Answer 7

i wish i knew. i just pretend i don't know about it. i'm more afraid of me dying, as opposed to others.
