I think of the peace of those who came before me as I saw them pass and how one day I will follow them.
I hate being alive
I ussually think abouth death as a coping mechanism it does not scare me
I'm israeli but not really religious. I think it's unlikely that there is anything after death, so I think about how when I'm dead I'll have no way of knowing or experiencing anything positive or negative, so it won't much matter. It's a bummer to think about all the things I'll miss out on, and the death itself may be unpleasant, but when I'm dead that won't matter to me anymore. No point getting too upset about it because it's inevitable. Vaguely in my head I am aware that death can come when you least expect it, so whenever you walk through a door you must be prepared never to return. I'm ok with that. Of course that's just a theory, I might feel different if you put a gun in my face.
How about you op?
why are there so many unironic israelites on this board specifically?
is down the drain, you seem to be lost.
I accept my mortality and enjoy the time I have
>The premise of eternal life scares me
The premise of eternal life or death scare me, but atleast being unconscious means i wont be aware. Also transhumanism, aliens, and the general perennial mystery of the whole universe makes me grateful enough to even be one the randomly lucky ones without serious deformities or medical problems (yet) who get to experience what we call “life”
My schizo theory is life on our planet as we know it, is probably some alien species experiment.
Also wow what a time to be alive! More information, and more escapism than ever. We are certainly in revolutionary epoch. The world post 2100 is going to be simply wild.
By the simple logic that if my consciousness could arise from nothing once, it can again. And I have nothing but time to wait while I'm dead

I try not to think about it. Why dwell on what cant be changed?
As a default I assume I'm going to Hell for eternity and hope that God will have mercy on me and grant me the gift of non-existence instead. On the other hand, if I can go to Heaven and live in eternal love and joy with my creator and Lord Jesus Christ, that would be best.
Cope by spending time with and appreciating the people you love. Did you not read the article you posted?
i don't think about it much
i know that i will probably die eventually but there's nothing i can really do about it
idk how religious people deal with the prospect of potential eternal torture if they fricked up following their rules or turns out their religion was not the correct one
I'm imagining it right now. Chris Hemsworth pissing and shitting his pants.
I refuse to accept death. Within the next few decades, it is highly likely that advanced life-extending technology will be achieved. When I finally become rich, I'll extend my life using these upcoming methods.
I don't think 'coping' is the right word. I'm trying to understand the phenomenon itself, that there are so many humans, one of them thinks he is me, and this state of affairs will cease at some future date. I am somewhat worried by the thought experiment called quantum immortality, because all arguments I've heard against it boil down to "it's different from the way we think the world is". otoh if it is true, I practically have an infinite amount time in which to reach enlightenment. One billion years surely should be enough, no?
i look forward to it. no more work, no more pain. just nothing. preferable to now where my work/fun and pain/pleasure ratios are on the wrong side.
>How do you cope with this fact,especially you non-religious?
I'm only afraid of pain, death is not that scary. In my mind it's either complete void and nothingness, or something related to my DMT experience, so nothing terrifying.
If life can't be eternal, so can't death. Everything works in cycles. Something is waiting for me; maybe not the current me, but a future me.
I'm not religious at all, dunno if this makes me spiritual or an /x/ user or whatever.
>If life can't be eternal, so can't death.
absolutely does not follow.
One day I won't have to deal with any of this shit anymore and I can finally get some goddamn rest. Hope I die in my sleep. That'd be great. Go to bed, then never have to get up again.
I'm not scared of it, just want to enjoy as much as I can of life before it's over. As you get older though, some stuff gets taken away from you, and you have to find new things to enjoy to replace what you've lost. I'm in my mid 30s now and starting to realize what that means, going to have to make sure my transition to middle age isn't too jarring for my lifestyle.
>I'm in my mid 30s now and starting to realize what that means
Can you elaborate?
I just use it for motivation to live my life to its fullest. There’s no use in getting upset about things you can’t change.
Death as we know it doesn't exist
Just accepted it and try to leave behind things for my child
>"Errrhmagawd I done almost died hyuk hyuk Ma-Ma!!!! I'm so friggin scurred!!! it done made me think 'bout stuff!! Life is so done so mest up!!"
>*proceeds to have shit out a bunch kids thoughtlessly who will be forced to face this same meaningless suffering we call life*
Stupid fricking redneck subhuman trailer trash natalist piece of shit.
>wah wah life is so bad I can't take it
>suicide???? Noooooo that's not an option I need to continue living in misery

When I die, when I die I'll live again!
When I die, when I die I'll live again, I'll live again!
