I am so tired of obsessing over it...trying to wrap my mind around the whole concept of it...thinking about it so many times a day...terrified that today will be "the day"...and terrified of the possibility that there's nothing beyond it. Can anyone relate or offer advice to stop?

I totally understand where your coming from i worry about death to not so much about myself but more about the people i know and love.I also think alot about what happens when you die i know how you feel. I think for me it is not so much about the dieing concept but the fear of not noing whats going to happen. The thing is with this phobia which make it quite difficult is that knowone no's when there going to die so that increases the fear. I think what you need to is accept that you will die one day and there nothing you can do about it harsh but true. Maybe you should talk to a councilor as they would help you understand the causes of the fear and that would help you tackle it. I hope you feel better and your phobia improves! :)

Yes, you're probably right. It's just a matter of accepting. I worry about my loved ones also, and gets exhausing thinking about it all the time. It is the unknown that makes it scarier. Just blows my mind that no one can give an answer. But like you said, just have to accept that. I am considering counseling. Thanks so much for your response. The support helps.

I have a faith that gives me comfort. I don't want anyone around me to die, but I know I'll have to accept it. If it is someone in my immediate family, I'm sure I won't accept it for a long time, but that is what therapy is for I guess.

I totally agree. I think about it alot too. It's how I lost my faith. What if nothing happens? What if people never get justice. What if the bad don't get punished and the good don't get rewarded! What will happen to me? I want to stop thinking about it, but I can't!
