As Woody Allen said, "I am not afraid of death... I just don't want to be there when it happens".

Wouldn't say it scares me but I certainly don't like the thought of dying and leaving my family behind.

But it's something we can't escape and comes to us all.

If you imagine what it was like before you were born you have no recollection of it, no pain,no joy no nothing since you didnt exist.

Death is i imagine exactly the same state. ??

My working life brings me in to constant contact with death. I see the tragic, the horrendous, the unlucky... I see it all. Death can be horrible, I know that's stating the obvious, but who given the choice wouldn't choose a nice bit of Ischaemic Heart Disease and literally falling asleep with no warning or pain as opposed to something far more brutal.

But it has made me incredibly comfortable with the concept of my own mortality. It really is not worth spending time worrying about it. And I treasure everyday and take pleasure in the most mundane of things. When we are bereaved we all get reminded for a time how fickle the finger of fate is and how precious life is. I get that reminder everyday.

Depends on how I die.

I don't think I fear something quick, but I would not like to go slowly (bowel cancer, or the like, which I am told is excruciating).

Death is something I see often in my working life. It doesn't scare me, it's often a welcome release. I was responsible for my father's death in a legal way. Life for him was suffering, death was inevitable but protracted. Nearly destroyed me, tho although it I would do it all again. To those who talk about assisted suicide, there's more to it than you think

"

I do think you have to have gutts to kill yourself .. "

NO! you have to be selfish, with no regard to the people you are leaving behinds feelings and the trauma they will feel at the shock of loosing a loved one.

If you think of death and ask how people would like to die they usually say quickly doing something they like.

While the people you leave behind would prefer you died long illness type death!

The reasoning behind this(according to sociologists) If you doe quickly in say an accident, the people you leave behind have a greater feeling of loss, has they feel you have been taken fromn them and given no chance to say goodbye.

Where as if you die of say cancer over a long period, both the person dying and the other friends and family expect the death and have time to say the things they want.

This rings true go to a funeral of an accident victim people are usually more shocked athe loss etc.. where the victim of an illness usuall get "well they have been ill for along time, they were suffering. Think it was for the best"..etc

The fear of death is usually associated with the fear of the unknown.

The thought of not being able to see my son, hubby and little dog again scares me, but if i was very ill then i would want to die. After seeing my mum, dad and two dogs die, is when it started to bother me more. Then sometimes i worry that i will be reincarnated as a battery hen or a woman who has lots of kids. That is scary.

I shyed away from answering that post, and glad i did as the example that you have given is so much better than my rant.

The only people that _iew suicide as selfish have presumably never seen it up close or are pretty self obsorbed to _iew their grief as worse than the suffering of someone driven to take their own life.

I wouldn't say it scares me, but I find myself thinking of my own demise the older I get.

I fear I'm becoming a bit of a hypocondriac. Every twinge is bone cancer, every headache is a brain tumour...I'd like to live long enough to see my girls married and with children and to at least get some of my pension back that I've been paying for years.

I'd hate a long, drawn out death, but truth be told, I've had a charmed life so far, it will end...just hope it's not for a couple of decades yet!

I am not scared of dying but like others it's the matter in which I do that concerns me.

I would not like to get stabbed or die in a fire. I'm sure there are a few other examples.

It's very easy to say suicide is a selfish act but as you are not in their head you cannot understand their motive. I agree it's traumatic for those left behind but sometimes there is no other answer... to them. I've endured the cries for help type and the no other way. I've cried for their loss but I've also strived to be a better friend to those who need it. Maybe I can prevent another, who knows.

Having lived with alzheimers within my family I would not wish it on anyone. It's tragic and guilt filled and helplessness. I saw my nan live the final 10 years of her life as a shell. I would welcome euthanasia from my family if ever I was in that position.

I watched Ben Hur recently and he was asked if he was afraid of death. His reply was, "Death is either better than this or nothing, and if it's nothing, then it's better than this."

Jean Luc Picard said, "Death does not stalk us, rather, it is a companion who walks with us through life teaching us to savour every moment as they'll never come again."

. Sadly, you probably will. You will most likely die from starvation or inhalational pneumonia, when the swallowing function goes. Before that, there are muscle cramps, infections, confusion, inability to speak and vocalise pain, suffering day after day. A hideous death.

I have been fortunate enough to be with both my parents when they died. I do think of it as fortunate because even through the dark times that followed when I missed them desperately, the thing I can be totally sure of was that they both went peacefully, because I was there, holding them in my arms as they went.

I am not frightened of death. I am frightened of leaving my boys behind and have them grieving for me. And I am worried about ending my days by violent crime, but in general no im not scared of dying.

A few years ago I had a heart complaint that I was blissfuly unaware of, heart block, it stopped my heart on several occaisions, so you could say that I have died several times, I honestly felt nothing it was just like a light switch turning off the longest I was gone was about three minutes, luckily enough for me (I suppose others would say unfortunatley enough) I also had HOKM which wierdly kick started my heart again, I still have both heart defects but probably have less chance of sudden death than the average man because I am so closley monitored

I can't honestly say that I'm worried about those I leave behind. The cycle of life will always continue and I prefer to think that I'll be fondly remembered or happily forgotten but those left after me will continue with their lives and be happy. That's all I want to be honest.

This poem by Christina Rosetti says it all for me:

~

Remember me when I am gone away,

Gone far away into the silent land;

When you can no more hold me by the hand,

Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.

Remember me when no more day by day

You tell me of our future that you plann'd:

Only remember me; you understand

It will be late to counsel then or pray.

Yet if you should forget me for a while

And afterwards remember, do not grieve:

For if the darkness and corruption leave

A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,

Better by far you should forget and smile

Than that you should remember and be sad.

No, I'm not afraid of death but like many others I am afraid of my children grieving for me.

On the bright side, knowledge of death and the understanding that life can be cruelly cut short, ultimately, means that (to me) the purpose of life is to enjoy yourself and have as much fun as possible without hurting others and to give selflessly of your time in a rewarding profession where you can genuinely help others.

I was born with a cord around my neck and not breathing.

I stopped breathing at my christening.

I got stuck in cement and sank under before being rescued when I was 11.

I was spiked at a party when I was 16, died, brought back by a defibulator 3 times.

I fell off a roof when I was 23, 30 foot head first into a slate coal shed and 4 years ago I collapsed with a life threatening clot in my lung and 5 in my brain.

Do I let any of these thing make me fearful of death. Of course not.

As it says on Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon album:

I am not frightened of dying, anytime will do I don't mind. Why Should I be frightened, no reason for it. Got to go sometime.

Live for today, gone tomorrow, that's me.

I am terrified of death. I loose sleep over it and it's one of the things that's always on my mind.

"What a depressing subject"

Well don't comment on it then. Use your time wisely elsewhere. The idea of 'input' into a conversation/discussion is to bring something to it, to further it.

Your comment does nothing.

"

I do think you have to have gutts to kill yourself ..

NO! you have to be selfish,

Actually I used to think that

Then my cousin who at 19 had serious austio perosis and killed himself because he couldn't live with the pain

10 months later his mother did the same because she couldn't live without her only child

Selfish? No sorry I now don't agree with that "

I have a severe back problem, have had several operations and currently taking loads of medication for the pain, which I have been told will never go away.

I am NOT selfish enough to take my own life and leave the mess for both my wife and children to live with the rest of their lives.

I have also had a family member take their own life, that was still selfish and their family members have had to live with that for the past 30 years.

Yes but when you are in that dark place you are not thinking straight and you are not thinking of others you just want the depression and the pain to end.

I was once in a very strong and long earthquake. I thought my number was up and found myself praying just to go quickly and not to be trapped and die slowly. Dying slowly is scarey, death itself no.

Bloody did tonight, I crashed into the back of a car, which when cycling is a lot more scarier than in another car, the women in front of me just slammed on cause the car in front of her did the same, wet conditions meant my brakes weren't at their best, got a lovely gash on my shin now, oh the car was fine by the way

I wouldn't say death scares me its how i die that scares me, having losing someone very close to lung cancer opens your eyes to how horrific death can be...So i hope i go whilst having sex (Sorry for whom that may involve) Or in my sleep but guess i don't get to choose lol

Having been in many situations where my life was genuinely in danger I can honestly say that anyone who tells you they arnt afraid of death is a liar.

I used to be like that but 7 months in Afghan knocked that attitude clean out of me, yeah sure you can put your head down and try to snot think about it but that little niggling though it ALWAYS there.....

As Bill and Ted said

"don't fear the reaper"

Death is part of life and we all have to experience it at some point for ourselves.

I like to believe we move onto somewhere else, not religious or anything but as a scientist I know that energy cannot be created or destroyed just transformed from one form into another
