I already said this earlier. People arent really afraid of dying, they're afraid of LIVING. People that know they havent lived up to their potential, or just HAVENT lived up to their potential have a sense of fearing death.
You dont get over it by doing death defying things.
You get over it by becoming the most you can be (but I wouldnt joint the army). JK
Go back to school, do something that brings YOU up to where YOU should be.
And if you are spiritual, listen to this:One time I prayed to God, admitting to Him that I was afraid to die and I was tired of being afraid to die, to help me to not be afraid to die (takes all the joy out of living dont it?)
Immediately His answer was "Be Thankful".
Since He told me, He had to be right, but it took me a long time to figure it out.
So do what you are meant to do. What is that? Well, along with the gift each of us are given when we are born we are given a passion to do it. So do that thing. And do it the best you know how.
I really hope this helps. I was afraid for many many years. Wasted a lot of time w/o happiness or joy. Good Luck. |

I have a question... WHO ARE YOU? Once you know the answer... you will no longer have reason to fear death |

Just realize that it happens to everyone sooner or later. It's like going to Walmart - we all go there eventually. |

Understand that as individuals we matter only in the part we play in the cycle of life; play your part to the full, every day, and you will have nothing to fear or regret.
Cowards die many times before their deaths;
The valiant never taste of death but once.
Of all the wonders that I yet have heard.
It seems to me most strange that men should fear;
Seeing that death, a necessary end,
Will come when it will come.
(Julius Caesar, Act II, Scene 2). |

pray to God. Your fears will go when you know you will be with him in heaven. |

I had a heart valve transplant op in 1984 and have spent a long time expecting to die at any moment.
I am now nearly 40 and have realised that life is about to begin(or so the saying goes) so just enjoy it and don't think about it(dying that is). |

No one make it out alive !! So remember you are not alone with this feeling ! I would imagine that the fear of birth would have been a terrifying thought for us too if we had any prior knowledge of that ??
I think that a lot of the fear comes from not knowing how we are going to die ! Rather than from death itself !
However one way of taking control of the situation a little is to plan and prepare for the inevitable event. Make a will !! This will help you to feel more in control !!! I know this sounds morbid but it is the only way of regaining some control over what it the inevitable anyway !
But most important remember that nearly everyone who has had a near death experience has mentioned peace and being overwhelmed with feelings of love and tranquility ! Most recall no knowledge of the actuall experience of death .
Try reading some books on it and may help you ? One book that I will recommend is " Saved by the light " by Dannion Brinkley. This is the true story of a man who actually officially died twice ! He was struck by Lightning while talking on the phone and was clinically dead for over 20 minutes . This book recalls the events that took place ! A truly amazing story ! This may help and give you some peace !
The only way to really prevent the end of you is to leave behind a legacy !! We live on in others and in their memories " Do something great that you will always be remembered for "
and the memory of you will live on a long time after you have returned to that place of love and peace !
I highly recommend that you find some spiritual faith that will also provide you with some comfort !! My personal saviour is Jesus ... he is there for you too ! hope this helps . |

Just a clarification - are you afraid of death's consequences? Death is part of the cycle of life. But since it comes without any warning, we tend to be flustered because we like order and predictability.
To fear what's beyond death is what faith is all about. |

Get yourself free the whole day, sit down in comfort, close your eyes & visualise what kind of death you fear? Then try to feel the fear. Do this many times as you can, slowly you will get use to that kind of fear & you will stop thinking about death. |

Well are you afraid of dying, or are you afraid of leaving without having accomplished anything? You can't control when you're going to die or how, but you can work constructively to the life purpose you work out for yourself, using that purpose to guide your every day decisions in order to work your life to the constructive end of that purpose, and then, even if your life is cut short, you'll have worked towards some sort of end. |

Acceptance.
Once you have accepted that death is inevitable, you will eventually realise that there is no point fearing something that we have no control over. |

Come to terms with it, we all know it's the one thing that we cannot stop so live your life to the full and stop worrying about something we cant change, ask yourself would you really like to live forever seeing people we love come and go? |

unfortunately my predecessor was correct... Death itself would free you from your torment... But leave it awhile and enjoy life first :)
And remember anticipation of death is worse than death itself. |

you need to understand that dying happens to EVERYONE including you and it's a natural cycle of life..get this in your brain and live day to day as you would if you not going to have tomorrow |

You don't want to get over it altogether; that would be dangerous. What you need to do is gain control over it. Remember that you are not going to escape it forever, but you do want to give it a good run for its money.
Personally, I think Death personified is a lot easier to deal with than Death as an abstraction, especially since no one can really imagine being non-existent. You can maybe imagine your family and friends mourning, and you can maybe imagine various after-life scenes, but you really cannot imagine non-being. It's too illogical: I think, therefore I am. I imagine, therefore I am. So how can I imagine not being?
Also, deciding what you believe about afterlife will help, unless of course you decide that (a) all the stories about hell are true, and are about afterlife, and (b) you are destined to go there. |

I don't think you can :(
It's not actually death that scares me, it's the fear of leaving my kids and the ones I love behind that scares me and I find very hard to imagine. |

You don't. It's absolutely normal to fear what we can't trully understand. |
