first accept that dying is inevitable, and will happen to everyone, also accept that it is very unlikely to happen soon.

next just remember death is not the worst thing that can happen to a person,

ok, now just try to preoccupate yourself with something else, pick up a hobby, live alittle

mark twain once said that a man who lives life to the fullest is ready to die at any moment

Once, I was also like you. I used to hesitate a lot to go in front of the girls. In fact, I would get highly nervous on seeing them. I would only think of how will I talk to them? What will they think of me? What impression will I be able to create? Am I making a fool of myself? Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. . . And above all these, I was extremely self-conscious (which added to my problems). All I could do was to think of talking to the girl I want and by then the opportunity would have slipped away and that thought would just remain as a thought. I could never convert it into action, all because of this thinking business and self-consciousness (or rather inferiority complex) Finally, I could take it no more. I realised that later in my life I did not want to remain with any suppressed desire in my heart and say to myself, "Kaash main aisa kar pata. . ." ("I wish I could do that thing. . .") So, I decided to give it a shot. . . Next time, I saw a girl, I decided to break the ice and start the conversation. At that time, I didn't give a damn thought of how I look or what impression will I be creating. . . I didn't stand to think what the girl will think of me and I just started the conversation. Though, it was hard for me when I tried it for the first time, cause I was really an introvert person then. . . But then after one or two conversations, I really got comfortable talking to the girls. And then what was the result? I landed up making 6 new female friends out which one has now become a very close friend of mine now and I have also taken to socialising voraciously and make friendship with anyone that crosses my way. Just give it a try bro. . . Don't think about how you look or what impression you'll create. .. Just go and break the ice. . . Nothing else can be done. . . It might be seem really difficult for the first time but believe me, you'll unleash a new level of self-confidence within yourself. . . You'll feel great. . . You'll discover a new you, a new potential within yourself and this self-confidence will help you to reach out to more people. . . Just give it a shot bro. . .

Do you have a religion? If so practice more often. Knowing God is always going to be with you when you are alive and when you die is pretty comforting. If you don't have a religion, get one. You need to stop thinking of dying although it is a sad thought. When you do die, don't you want to be able to say you had a good life and you embraced it not feared it? If this doesn't help, try talking to someone; not necessarily a psychiatrist but a family member, close friend?

We will all die at sometime and reunite in heaven, its scary to think of now but thats life.

As soon as you can stop worrying about dying then you will start to live. We are born, we die, what we do in between is what counts. Take every single day as a blessing, I have not yet made it through the school of hard knocks, but I would not be dead for quids. In other words I have been blessed with life and I am going to make the most of it.

lets say you wake up on day 1 of a 2 week life and "life has only one object in it. A ball .... a round ball that bounces. But it makes you feel happy to play with it and bounce it around, and so on.But then you realize that you only have 3 days left to play with the ball... So do you stop playing and stop being happy because you know it has to end? No, you make every day filled with as much playing with the ball as you can and forget the day is coming when it is over, is coming at all. kind of a lame sinario i know but you get the idea

Well, first you need to ask yourself why you're so afraid of dying? Could it be trauma from earlier in your life, or could you have some sort of disorder?

Try to focus on the good in your life - and realize that if you're wasting your life and missing out on good things if you're spending all your time worrying about something that likely won't happen for many, many years.

Stop worrying about things you have no control over, okay!

Be positive, smile and be grateful for the good things in your life!

Wake up everyday with excitement. It is a new day that you have never seen and it could be your best day for wonderful things to happen.

Life is great and it is ALL for you for the asking.

Well, honey, death is very much a part of life. But you have to do the living part first. It is obvious that you have alot of things on your mind and you need to talk to someone about all of this. Talk to someone that you trust, like your preacher, or a teacher, counselor or go see a psychologist. I used to go see a psychologist and it was great to talk about all the things that I thought about and she was a neutral party. It was very helpful, at least to me. Life is so very short and I hate to see anyone spend their time worrying about things that they cannot change. Please see someone and get this stuff out of your head or even write it all out in a journal. That is also very helpful. I do wish you the very best and much happiness.

I used to have the same problem. my advice to you would be to try to talk to a loved one about it and they will comfort you and just try to keep your mind off of it that is what i did and now i am fine and living life. wow i always thought i was the only one who used to be afraid and thought about it all the time!
