I want in the best case scenario to die in my sleep. at old age…because of old age…that’s the only death that doesn’t scare me…you guys deal with this?

There’s no “dealing” with this.
One can hope, but there’s no guarantee.
Accidents, diseases, violence…
I never think about it.
One less source of anxiety.

I’m afraid of how I’ll die and when I’ll die. I’m not ready to die.

well I’m getting older and I’m going to be 62 next month. not many years left probably…I mean twenty more years would make me happy…as long as I have my mind and my health. Car wrecks scare the hell out of me…I am a very, very good driver.

I fear death! And sometimes I think how I will die, too. We all think about the end sometimes…
:slight_smile: that’s one more reason to live life in a very fulfilling way. And in a peaceful way… and in a healthy way!

I don’t fear death but I think it’s just because I have some sort of general stupidity about it.
I do fear other people dying though.

And I fear being destitute and homeless again. Life is hard on the street. I wouldn’t wish it on anybody.

Sorry to hear you been through that. I don’t know personally how life feels on the streets, but I can imagine

I was crazy enough that I didn’t fear for my life, but the reality is that you are taking a risk every time that you sleep rough. Someone could either try to rape or kill you steal your things. It’s no joke

Truth, it’s indeed dangerous.
The worst I did was spending late evenings in the streets alone.
Glad nothing happened…
But I always had a roof over my head. That’s one of the reasons I could say thanks to my parents (even though our relationship is complicated))
