What do you think about death/dying? How does the fact that your life is limited make you feel? Are you scared of losing everything? What do you think awaits you after you die, do you believe in afterlife, rebirth, something else, or do you think it's gonna be like falling into unconsciousness forever? What are your thoughts on consciousness, why you are you, why/how did your mind get assigned specifically to your body and is only able to feel and perceive things through it? What decided which eyes you are currently seeing through?

I remember when I was undergoing a surgery and got anaesthesia. I was giga nervous before getting injected and then my mind completely shutdown, it's hard to describe but I think I felt some sort of calmness/relief for a microsecond and everything went to black, and when I woke up it felt like no time passed at all. I think dying is similar except you never wake up. I have more questions in my mind but im not very smart and I don't know how to formulate them.

I am agnostic, but I like to believe there is nothing after death, or you get reborn with no knowledge of your past life. The mystery of "what after?" scares the shit out of me.

I find it weird how everything that was build and made will eventually feel like it never existed at all. you will never look back after your death and remember all the music, the food and your loved ones. It’s like it never was there. Im a Christian doe but the Atheist version of death is seriously the most depressing

Im an atheist so I think you just die and that’s it, I’m fine with dying, I just want it to happen when I’m old.

I’ve had a similar experience to you, one time I was at the mall and I randomly passed out. When I woke up the first thing I thought was something like “ugh, I’m still alive?”. This experience alone pretty much cured my fear of death, I believe that I’ll be looking forward to the same calmness I felt when I passed out. I’m not suicidal at all, my life is great, I just think that death will be less scary when it’s about to actually happen.
>but you passed out randomly, what if you knew what was gonna happen?
I had that happen as well, one time I was sick I woke up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. Once there my heart started beating like crazy and my head spun, so I sat down. I had 0 strength to stand up, and I was sure I was about to die due to a heart attack. Even so, I just lied there and waited. I eventually passed out, then woke up drenched in cold sweat. Tbh I was very tired so I just got up and went to bed lol

that is the scariest thing to think about, how would you feel if you didn't exist? you don't know. but NOTHING is scary, i think its worse than punishment- you don't even get to exist or be redeemed

i’m a Christian so it doesn’t bother me much. i’m just concerned about the when and how i die. i want to be able to live a long and fulfilling life with my future wife and die peacefully in my sleep

I agree with this 100% when it comes to death

>What are your thoughts on consciousness, why you are you, why/how did your mind get assigned specifically to your body and is only able to feel and perceive things through it
Destined by God for me to be me. And im glad I can only percieve and feel the world through my own body otherwise it would just be completely schizophrenic
Also agreed with the part on anaesthesia, I felt the same before and after surgery

Death itself isnt really a bad thing through most beliefs. Christianity believes if you have faith in Jesus you will achieve eternal peace after death, atheists believe nothing ever happens, and pagans think life is reincarnation or something but nophono really cares about it, but even if that was true it wouldnt be so bad, statistically you would be born as a fly or some other animal incapable of thinking and incapable of suffering in your next life. Death is a sweet relief in most beliefs but at the same time, life is nice too

Why so? "You" once didn't exist, yet here you are now. I would read up on this: https://www.naturalism.org/philosophy/death/death-nothingness-and-subjectivity
