Hello everyone.hope everyone is well.peace and respect to all.
i am meena from UK,one month ago i started to suffer panic attacks,due to sudden death of my father,and after my father passed away,we have had few more Sudan deaths round where i live,from then on words i started fearing death,my fear is about death,soon as i feel tiny pain or headache i fear i am going to die,so the panic attacks triggers off,which is making my life hell,this fear i can bear,my heart starts racing my legs go weak an i start sweating.
is there anyone else who fears death,or am i the only one who's fears this fear of death?
i would love to hear from other people who feel the same.

Hi Meena

Welcome to NMP. They are a great bunch of people here, you will get lots of support.

Yes I too have a terrible fear of death, I have had it since I was a child, but it got worse after my mum died 4 years ago. I think most people fear death to be honest, but some worse than others.

You will find a lot of like minded people here & I hope you soon find peace from this awful fear.

Love
Els

Hi again Meena

You will not go mad with this anxiety, it cannot possibly do that. I know anxiety can give you all kinds of symptoms & makes us feel bad. Personally I think the sooner you get help the better. Can you see a cognitive behaviour therapist or a counsellor? It would probably help you a lot. Unfortunately though, we have to do most of the work, which is so hard when you're feeling so scared & weak, but it can be done! Be kind to yourself as well, a lot of people get low self-esteem & confidence + start calling themselves names like 'stupid' etc, this is very unhelpful.

Know who you are, stand tall & love yourself

Ps - I need to take my own advice

Its my greatest fear. I have good days where I can go the whole day without checking for symptoms and like today I have bad days where its the first thing I think about when I wake up. Its horrible. I get this wave of fear and then go weak and tired. Dont worry, you are not alone and this site is helping me.

Hi Katie

welcome to NMP - there are lots of great people here who help you a lot. You will come to terms with this - lots of people on here worry about death too. It's about all I don't worry about!!!!!!!!

A little hug from me to you
to make you smile when you feel blue
to make you happy when you're sad,
to let you know life ain't so bad.
Now I've given a hug to you,
somehow I feel much better too
hugs are better when they're shared.
Hope you have a good day
Thinking of you....

hi Adelle.
That's how i feel some days go good, and some days soon as i am out off bed,the only thing the mind starts thinking about is death.
the more i am thinking the more fear starts creeping in.
