Let's start this way....The only thing certain in life is Death.... It comes, You fall asleep every night...now is that scary or what?? You breathe in you breathe out, real scary isn't it?? Do I sound a bit sarcastic?? Well, I am being so. You can't fight nature, so just begin to live and enjoy it. Maybe this phobia has stemmed from some one close dying or maybe many! But let's face it.. Life is just a transient form of energy, and it has to pass on. The sooner you accept this reality, the sooner you will get over the fear of death. Believe me you, it will happen when it has to, and there's nothing anyone can do abou it! Losing sleep over this may cause you to develop ilnesses which may well hasten the process! There's a little something on death that sums it all up.... What's the similarity between the john and dying???? the answer?? When you got to go, you got to go!! Cheer up have a ball, life's good, live it to the full.

A counselor is the best person to help you with this. A fear that causes you to lose sleep is out of hand, but sometimes just a few words with a counselor can make a big difference.
I had an enormous fear to leave my house, but I lived alone. I couldn't send anyone else to get groceries, do the laundry, go to the doctor, or the dentist. Even to go to counseling I had to leave the house. A friend of mine pointed out that I was already dealing with it by forcing myself to get out when I needed to. It still took time to make the changes I needed to make, but I did. If the feeling of fear of anything comes over me, I have a "discussion" with myself about how reasonable it is. Bullets flying? Yup, it's reasonable. Scared to apply for a job? Reasonable, but conquerable. Going to the grocery store? Not reasonable, ignore it.
What often causes these and other fears may be brain chemicals. The disscussion is too long for Yahoo!Answers, but reading about it is facinating. Better, some new drugs are being developed for it. There is hope.

poof, that is quiet a question. why are you scared of dieing, we're all the same in that regard. is there something specific that triggered that fear. if it's really disrupting your life, maybe you could talk to somebody, just a friend or a counsellor, whatever you want to do. we're all gonna die, don't worry stress cause all kinda of problems. just push the thoughts out of your mind and do something you enjoy.

im totally terrified of death too!, but do you know what helped me, it wasnt the fact that death is not the end of this life, but the beginning of another, it was looking at children with cancer, once they are terminally ill they dont feel fear of death anymore, they become peacefull and one with themselves, like the elderly and all terminally ill people tend to, our fate is indeed sealed but that doesnt mean we should fear it! we should be one with it. imagine yourself to be terminally ill, i know its wierd, but how do you feel, like you want to tell everyone how much you love them, do all the things you always wanted too? then think like this all the time! life is one journey, when the path ends youll already be on it, so dont fear the dark, things are never as bad as we imagine them to be!

~Is there a reason you should be afraid of dying? Do you have heart problems or cancer?
If you're healthy and you have a fear of dying, seek counseling, you're dealing with anxiety.
Good luck~
