I wasn't really sure where to put this, so just in case I put it here.
I was recently admitted to hospital after a serious overdose and after I came home my brother asked me a very simple question: Are you afraid of dying?
It got me thinking, maybe if I were afraid of dying I wouldn't try such potentially fatal things. I'm not afraid of dying, I'm more afraid of living tbh.
So what about you? Are you afraid?
It's the children the world almost breaks that grow up to save it.

I'm afraid of dying, but I'm also afraid of living.
I tend to act on impulses, so I act on those impulses, & after wards, I regret it & get very scared & anxious & I wish I never did it in the first place, so I'm afraid of both dying & living, so tad stuck in between.
I'm just getting over that fear of living at the moment. I'm not scared of what happens after you die. Its beyond my control and there is little that I can do about it really. My lack of fear used to frighten me a little and I worried that I had little repect for living. I would definitely say that I used to be more scared of living than dying....
However recently i've started making some plans for the future... And i'm thinking that I wouldn't want to die just yet. There are things that I want to do first and if I died, it would be just so unfair! So i'm more worried about running out of time then facing the unknown. I want to reach a point in my life where I could die smiling, knowing that I did all that I wanted to do.
I have seen so much death. It doesn't scare me. What worries me is the ones I leaave bheind, and of not having lived 'enough', but dying itself, if done the 'right' way? No.
There are, it has been said, two types of people in the world. There are those who, when presented with a glass that is exactly half full, say: 'This glass is half full'. And then there are those who say: 'This glass is half empty'.
The world belongs, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: 'What's up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don't think so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass!
Im terrified of dying, purely because I believe that thats the end, no thoughts no heaven etc, yet thats the same reason I've tried to kill myself in the past.
Sarah: Give me the child.
Jareth: Sarah beware. I have been generous up till now. I can be cruel.
Sarah: Generous? What have you done that's generous?
Jareth: Everything! Everything you have wanted I have done. You asked the child be taken, I took him. You cowered before me, I was frightening. I have reordered time. I have turned the world upside down, and I have done it all for you! I am exhausted from living up to your expectations of me. Isn't that generous?
No, not anymore
what always made me worry about it if there was something beyond all this and if it was good or bad
now I know there's nothing out there...
I write this alone on my bed; I've poisoned every room in the house; The place is quiet and so alone; Pretend there's something worth waiting for; There's nothing nice in my head The adult world took it all away; Wake up with same spit in my mouth; Cannot tell if it is real or not; I try and walk in a straight line An imitation of dignity- MSP - From despair to Where

I'm afraid of dying because I hates to leave my family and few relatives on my streets who I loves the most..They don't wants me to go but, I'm afraid of being alone in the house while something bad happened to them, so I will try to live a little bit more.
Also, I'm worried if I gets to see him in there so I might do "something else" before I'm hurting myself because of it. So, I'm going to stand up for what's right and sue them because it's getting out of hand soon.
I'm scared of hurting people by leaving them behind and not being able to make it better.
Now I'll play your ghost as my ace, whenever I'm led astray.
But I am actually good, can't help it if we're tilted.
I'm in my right place, don't be a downer.
I am afraid of dying, not what it would be like or anything but im afriad of not being in control of it so thats why i try and kill myself so frequently and so seriously! i want to be in control of it!
i am also scared of life, it terrifies the crap out of me!
Im not scared of dying, i never really had been. I used to be scared that id die before i had the chance to live but now im not. I don't want to die though, i dont want to leave my family and friends behind, especially my son and girlfriend.
I've never had to deal with death, perhaps that would change my perception? not sure though, i think my lack of fear is due to my faith
Only recently, I have become afraid of dying. I feel ridiculous saying that because I honestly feel like I can't face living either but the fear of what happens after death scares me. For me I'm specifically worried because people tell me that committing suicide is a sin and I'm afraid that I'll go to Hell.
