It's not my own death that scares me.
Losing somebody I care about is one of the few things that truly terrifies me.

Of course I do. I don't fear what comes afterwards, because I don't even know if there is anything at all, but I do fear dying because I really like this life thing.
And having a 50% chance of not reaching my 30s, staying alive is a pretty big concern!
Do you live in Detroit?
Hahaha, nope :p
More like health issues...

Well, the afterlives in religions have scared me into dying, but I don't that much. I always believe that when we die, we go into a similar state as when we're yet to be born. It's like a dream, only you don't see the dream.

So no. I do, after my classmate dying, very, VERY much fear the death of my close relatives and other friends.

No. I used to, but I don't now. I realised the death of people that I love is a far more terrifying thing.
sorry dont meand to be patronising but by fearing the death of others you still fear death i would have to say myself that i was the last to talk to my grandad before he died i was actualy in the room while it happened and he told me 'dont worry this is just the end of my journey i hope that yours will be as good as mine' i was 7 and ever since i havnt feared death.... although i hate the way people read in newspapers or stuff '7 dead in iraq.... whens the liverpool match?' people dont care about death anymore

I do not fear death; it is inevitable. I fear specific ways of dying.
I'm quite sure you are getting tired of being quoted for this thing, but it's how I too feel about death. Death itself doesn't scare me, but whatever leads me to it, does...

Also, I believe quite firmly in afterlife, in one form or the other. I don't feel like that in a religious way, I just think that there is...something after your body dies. Please don't argue with me about this, I have nothing to back this up, expect a feeling.

Also:

I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.

All right, this has been done before but it got about 35 posts and it was awhile back, so I'm doing this thread. Are you afriad that your life will end soon? Personally, I would choose "Kinda" mostly because I believe life has no meaning, but death could be a dark void for all eternity. So I fear that niggling doubt that it isn't a happy place of sunshine and... Kittens... and that it's a dark void to float in forever. Also, everything you had in life it gone, your relationships, possessions, the simple joys of living, gone. I want this to be answered with this thought in mind, death can happen at any time, tomorrow, the next hour, a week from now. Just keep that in mind while answering, no need to lie here.

Edit: Alright, it's come to my attention that some people are more sad to die then scared of it... I really find it interchangeable, but I added a new option for that.
Not afraid of death, but i'll be hellas depressed. I want to accomplish everything I can in the time I have, mind you if I found out I had a month or so to live then I'd be pushed to make shit happen.
Then the saddness option is for you. Heh... Yes well, before I die I want to have a life byond ah... 38. Maybe go sky-diving or somthing. Really, it's all for pleasure in the end. Accomplishing things gives self-satisfaction which is pleasureable... I guess. I just hope the afterlife (If there is one) isn't boring. Or atleast there are people there... *Shrug*

I do not fear it, it would just be a pity to die.

Life-extending products? I will embrace them.
Walk around some of my goals to avoid risky moments? No.

I do not want to die, and I would not die gladly but I cannot see fear in the thought of dying.
As long as I have a dream left, it would be a pity to die, and since I will always have at least one dream it would never come conveniently.
Avoiding a dream would not bring me much good either.
