Evertime I am about to sleep I get this feeling that I may not ever wake up and it may be my last sleep. So I cry for hours and call my mom into the room and ask her to read me a story and sing to me, this helps me forget about waking up dead. But my mom is getting annoyed because she has stuff to do at night with her boyfriend. So I need some serious help!

Sounds like anxiety, but you have rewarded it so it becomes a sort of compulsion or ritual along side the anxiety. See we may get scared or have phobias but we tend to make them worse by how we react to them. You have been getting your mother to read to you and sing, this is very comforting and the attention from her feels really good. It's not that you did this on purpose its just what happens sometimes, I have done it many times with many differt things and situations. Actually everyone has done it at one time or another.
See a doctor about the anxiety, it seems like you are not handeling the stress properly, hey I dont either so you are not alone.

I know how you feel, I was like that, but I got out feeling like that. Music is the answer (for me anyways) Music soothes the savage beast and for you your anxiety. Music will calm you, but if your not the person who can handle the slightest sound, ask yourself, Wheres the evidence. How do you know your going to die. Then think about your day or a place you'd like to be. If you have any pets bring them in to sleep with you. Having a companion with you can make you feel less empty.

You may have Necrophobia, which simply is the fear of death. The most effective way to treat this phobia is to see a therapist which can help you overcome this and have normal nights. Don't worry about dying in your sleep. It happens rarely at your age.

Read a book, watch T.V. til you fall asleep. I do this ,to get away from that feeling as well, don't eat alot of caffine or sugar before bed this can make your mind race, and keep you going 90 to nothing.Just try thinking of things you like ,over and over again til you fall asleep. Good Luck!
