Are you afraid of death?  Are you more afraid of others dying, or of yourself?

I'm not particularly afraid of death, likely because I've faced it a few times in my life. I am, however, terrified at the prospect of losing someone I love and care about. To me, that is a far worse thing to contemplate. The loss would be too great... So in answer to your question, I'm not afraid of my own death but I am very much afraid of others dying. Perhaps this is selfish, I don't know...

Depends on the phobia. One may suggest exposing yourself to your fear in small doses until you are no longer afraid.  However, what if you fear death?

I'm not afraid of death, but i don't want to die now because i know if i did i would go to hell.  Believing in God kinda makes it hard to accepting death if you have not turned your life over to him. After i get baptized i can die, but right now being alive is looking good.

Except for a few lunatics, every one with the capacity to think knows that they will die eventually. For the most part people don't want to die now.\n\nThere are a lot of fears associated with death, starting with the fear that something terrible will happen and it will be painful, or that there will be a slow decline and you'll spend 10 years in a nursing home not knowing who you are.\n\nSo, not too many people are jumping up to volunteer.

I am more afraid to NOT live for God.  I don't think people are afraid they are just too lazy and self centered.  Truely living a life that is pleasing to the Most Merciful is not easy but it is well worth the work.

Who said I'm scared of Death?. But I do believe the old adage \n" You are what you eat" and you are a case in point!

I think that everybody has a fear of the unknown and obviously death is a huge unknown! The thought of death frightens me to an extent but I also have hope of an after life with God so in a way it is kind of like having something to look forward too! Hey plus we all get to reunite with old loved ones dogs, Grandpas you name it!

I don't think that you should fear death. Too many think that it is something bad. It isn't! It will just be a continuation of this life you just won't have your body, you'll be spirit again, which was what you were before you were born. A very great book to read is called The Messenger it gives you a really good idea of what to expect when you die. I look forward to it when it is my time. It is published by American Family Publications 1-208-524-1558\nthe author is Lance Richardson he wrote another book also that is really great called Masquerading as Angels, two must reads for anyone who needs hope, a laugh and a good cry. Death is just a transition into the next realm of our existence.  And the experience that Lance Richardson shares will quell any ones fears about dying.

There is no reason to fear death unless you are an enemy to God.  This earth life is a miserable existence.  Something much better awaits most of us.  Even if you consider yourself to be a sinner God will forgive you if you are willing to offer him your will.\nThere are many misconceptions about death.  It is nothing spooky.  Think of it as returning to a familiar and loved home where people love you.  I don't suggest that you do anything to cut your life short -- just live life as best you can without ill will toward anyone and don't frear death.  Death happens to everyone.

i think im more afraid of being dead then the pain. Its scary to no that you cant see your loved ones again, and everything else you'll miss. You cant live life anymore...to me thats the real pain.

Experiencing death does not scare me - I will do what I can to make sure it is the last thing I do - but I am not afraid.\n\nI don't want a long, painful death, but if that is what God has planned for me, then I will accept it and take joy in some of the suffering that Jesus experienced on the cross.

Yes I do fear death, even though I believe in Heaven, I still am afraid of leaving Earth. (I like it here!)

I was a Christian for many years. I feared many things... death, evil, Hell, God, "backsliding".... all sorts of things.\n\nI am now an atheist and do not believe in ANYTHING supernatural, so by default Hell, gods, demons, etc. hold zero fear for me. Also, I do not think it will be any different for me after I die than it was for me all those years before I was born, and while I do try to avoid death, I do not fear it. I accept it as part of life. If you listen to what Christians pray for, it's pretty obvious they fear a lot more than the wrath of their own god.\n\nAlso, I no longer have Satan or God to blame for my actions in any way. Taking full responsibility for what you do brings self-confidence, and self-confidence is a great way to get rid of fear. When you think you can pray and some powerful buddy will bail you out of trouble, you aren't showing much self-reliance. Not feeling like you can do anything on your own against ultra-powerful entities should make it obvious to the Christians themselves that they naturally have more fear than atheists.\n\nI know many  Christians who use the argument that if I am wrong and there is a god, I will go to Hell. So if they use fear to recruit new Christians and keep them, doesn't it stand to reason they would have more fear?\n\nAdded after reading other responses: Almost every answer from Christians so far shows a fear I overcame... the fear of not being Christian! LOL!

When one dies , he/she will have no feeling. I remember one evening when I was watching television. I found that the sound from the TV became weaker and weaker.The room became quieter and quieter. Even if someone dropped a needle I could hear it clearly.Just  then I told my mom that I heard nothing. Then I fainted and when I woke up I couldn't move. It seemed  as if I were  a dead person. I couldn't get up or raise up my hand  because it was as heavy as hundred kg.  That accident let me experience the moment of death. It was not terrible at all. It was quite smooth as the whole world became so quiet ...quiet until I  heard nothing. No feeling at tall . So death is not terrible nor painful. After I fainted I had no feeling at all.Therefore I think people will not have feeling after they died.
