That is normal,,just accept the truth that everyones destination is death,don't think about it just enjoy your life because life is so short and always show your love and affection to your loved ones or family as well as by saying "I love you" to each of them!That is the real meaning of life,to be born and to die!

You are just worried, that happens to me when I go to funerals too. 2 years ago I had to go to 3 funerals in 3 months the first my uncle, the second my grandma, and the third was one of my best friends. In each of those funerals I was so down for about 1 week after. It is really hard to deal with all the sorrow b ut eventually you will get over it, you need to stop worrying and try to live your life. Hope you get better and move on:)

Funerals are very sad, very emotional, and they do make you think of the lives of the people we love ending. What you are feeling is perfectly normal, and you are certainly not alone in feeling this way. If you focus on the future so much though, you are going to miss out on all of the wonders of today. It is helpful to tell your loved ones just how much you care about them, spend time with them, and try your best to enjoy the moment. Their will come a day that we all pass away, it can not be avoided, but you can make your time here as wonderful as possible by enjoying what we have today....today.
I think that you have done a very loving and selfless thing by supporting your friend in her time of need, and by doing that you are making her life just a little bit better. She is lucky to have you as a friend.
If you continue to experience this anxiety, you may want to contact your doctor for some assistance in dealing with this. Anxiety and depression is quite normal in this situation, but if you find it continuing and if you find that it is getting in the way of your day to day activities, talk to your doctor about your options.

There's nothing wrong with you. You're just too young to understand that a funeral is a good bye, hello ceremony. Yeah, funerals suck. We are, afterall saying good bye to a friend, right? Try to think of it as a bon-voyage. The dead are only dead in body. The spirit, which lives forever, has gone on to a different place. A place which human understanding can't understand. Indeed to a much, MUCH better place. So don't mourn a dead body, but rather rejoice in a spirit you love gone on to better.

You seem very sensitive toward the subject of death. We all do to some degree because our initial reaction is to survive. Make a cup of something warm and go and sit down somewhere quiet. Think about what you and your friends family have gone through, but also remember that we are not eternal creatures. You need to resonate with what has happened but you also should detach yourself a little as well.

This thing you feel is called the spirit of death. It is inevitable. Pray that all of your love ones, including yourself have confessed the Lord Jesus Christ. There is a place that we all will have a permanent resting place, one day. Where we spend our resting place determines how we live here. Don't be afraid.
Read in the Bible, the book of John chapter 5 verses 24 and 25.
MAY THE LORD GOD BLESS YOU REAL GOOD.

no its frequently normal. i mean its hard when you lose a loved one because you knew them so long and now you have to let go and say good bye forever. my saying here is don't wobble over the edge about everything that death happened for a reason cause god knew it was the right time and he doesn't want to put you through all that pain and agony yet cause there is way more to come. if you can contact me I'll share with you some of my suffering and show you that there will be definitely more to come. cause if god had to go through this we have to go through this

No...its devestating when someone dies. I went to some one's funeral I barley knew and I was so sad and cried. It just shows that your a caring person. When my Dad died it was heartbreaking. I still think of it know, and it will be 3yrs this dec. since he passed away.
