Half of the time I look forward to my death, it doesn’t scare me since I don’t see the real point of my life, what scares me is if my agony would be slow and painful.

But then what? I just stop existing and it’s like I fell asleep? Do I see light? Darkness? Nothing? What is nothing?

    What I think or what I hope?

    I think it will be just like before I was born. I will become nothing.

    I hope that I’m wrong and I will be reunited with my loved ones.

    Our soul is weighed against a feather by the holy mother. Not like Mary or whatever, the real all powerful 5th dimension all is one in time and space holy mother.

    If our soul tips the scale against one’s favor then you are reincarnated… you’re reincarnated into tge sane family however the dynamics keeps changing each time you’re born. You’re sister might be your brother next time and you’re a wife in one life then maybe a fatherless uncle in the next. Anyway once we achieve enlightenment, we are given a choice, stop the cycle or keep going

    I think its like being anesthesized or a high dose of nitrous, consciousness slowly fades away, its a bit trippy, can be scary, and then youre gone. Depends on the circumstances though, some deaths are probably a lot quicker than others and you wouldnt feel a thing.

    The connections in my brain that made me me will fail and I will cease to exist, same as before I existed.

    Nothing. Was in the hospital for a heart attack last year, my heart stopped for 8 seconds. I was 100% completely unaware. Was told later what had happened.

          If you don’t remember then how can you tell?

          Sometimes you remember dreaming, sometimes you half-remember dreaming, sometimes you remember nothing.

          I’m assuming that the unremembered part is full of dreams too.

            Yes, assuming, because you never got an EEG that measured which parts of your brain were active while you slept. Which, wait… Scientists have actually done! Wow, surprise 😐. Who could’ve known it.

            Fucking dumbass.

        Some days are more challenging than others, I spent the last two weeks with the flu and WANTED to die. ;)

      Over 4 minutes for me. Can confirm, no concept of time. I slowly became aware of a noise that turned out to be my own breath from chest compressions. Then I became present again.

    I have an opinion on this, but it saps all the fun out of the discussion when the question is asked by someone who gets no enjoyment out of their life. I’d rather you get professional mental health than have a bunch of people on the Internet assure you that death will be the end of your suffering.
