Being scared of death is a normal thing - and can by quite healthy if you find yourself in honestly dangerous situations. Excessive fear is not healthy or normal but can be helped. Fear is excessive if it interferes with normal activities or effects you and your interactions daily. Do you find yourself regularly doing things that you "think" will keep you or your family safe - not like rubbing a rabbit's foot, but like obsessing over whether the stove is turned off or triple and quadruple checking the door to make sure it's locked? These can be signs, but it's not absolute - like I said, fear can be quite healthy.
You should talk with your parents about your fears. Chances are this is a reaction to hormonal changes - you're at that age, you know.
Don't worry about what might happen if and when your parents pass. Coping with the loss of a loved one is an intensely personal experience, but you will find that your friends and other family members will be there for you. In the meantime, make sure you tell them that you love them, you'll always have that no matter what.
As for yourself, always try to be the best person you can be, do good works, and let yourself be an instrument for peace and harmony.
Talk with your parents, let them know how you feel. Trust that you're a good person and that whatever G-d you believe in has a plan for you and that you can face any trouble placed in your path.

You are going to die. That's a fact. The thing is, you can't let that fact take away the joy of life. If it does, you're already dead in a sense. I mean you just have to take what comes at you as it comes. My mom comitted suicide a few years ago. She was always obsessed with death. It was hard for me to deal with losing her, and I didn't think I could go on. I felt betrayed and abandoned. But, I kept on doing what I was doing and have been able to keep joy and love in my life. I worry like crazy that something will happen to me or my wife, now that we have a 2-year old. Sometimes it gets so bad that i'm thinking every time I drive or go to work "what if I die today." My best friend, Art "Tigger" Jones was murdered in his front yard by some mexican guy on 3/3/06. He had two kids and one on the way. It was really tragic. Life is like that, one day it's with you then it's gone. All you can do is plan for the future, try not to take any real stupid risks, and enjoy this magical gift while you have it. There's nothing wrong with being afraid to die, but you still have to take care of your business while you are here. If you do that, I think you're pretty normal. And about your parents, all you can really do is to be good to them while you have them, odds are good that they'll be with you for many years to come.

Sometimes I feel the same way, and I'm an adult. I try not to let it get the best of me. I do believe in God, so that always helps. But you can't spend your life worrying about something that we have no control over. You're way too young to be thinking and worrying about this. Enjoy life, have fun, love and be good to your parents and friends, and just live. None of us know how long we have so we might as well make the best of it. That's how I see it. Now go have fun and stop worrying!!

I'm scared to death too my friend, God bless you and your family. :) My Mother is my Angel, my best friend and my everything. Without God and Mother, I'd be nothing. And I have worried so much and cried so much about the day something happens, death is no fun for anyone, but God Loves us and if God won't put anything on us we can't handle than hopefully He'll come back and us and our parents we'll meet Him in the clouds together. But trust me, I'm a very sad, lonely teenager also trying to make it in this world with the help of my Mother and God. :)

I can't make you not scared, but think how many days that you've lived. 365x18. Sice you didn't die those oter days, the chance of dieing is 1 out of ... 365x18. maybe this is just beacause i'm a nerd, but it worked for me. Hope this helps. Oh ya, and this scared of death is a phase of life, you'll get over it.

Don't be scared of death, You have no choice in the matter. But losing one of your parents, really sucks. I just lost my dad 3 months ago. I think about hime everyday, we were very close. I think of things I should have said, that you don't think about till its too late. so.......Live your life, do what you want to do, and don't forget to tell your parents, or grandparents, close relatives, that you love them, and do spend more time with them......U never know.

i am afraid too. I donr know what i would do if i lost my family. But, i just graduated in 2006 and my senior year i lost two class mates. One (courtney) to suicide and about 3 weeks later a very clase friend ( tiffany) to a car wreck and her mother had died one year prior. It was very rough, but i do know that coping is possible. you just have to be surrounded by others. being alone is the worst. but try not to be afraid, its all part of this beautiful and confusing life we lead...

Death is not the end, it is only the removal of oneself from their body of meat. You then choose your time when you will return and who you will be.
Being a human is a learning game, until you have experienced every aspect and every emotion, you will keep having to return to a human body.
Almost like re incarnation. Death is not the end

To a certain extent that is normal. However, if your fear is interferring w/ your normal day to day life you will have to talk to someone - Mom, Dad, a therapist, about it. You may be suffering from anxiety.
