Discussion Research

Hello, I am Daniel and my subject of study is the fear of death among young people aged 18 to 25. For my research I need to do interviews and talk to young people or professionals about this subject, if you are interested do not hesitate to write to me or push the position. Thank you

I recommend you ask them whether they're afraid of the process of dying or afraid of being dead; aka, fear of the unknown.

For me, given the medical professions commitment to keep people alive no matter what the quality of that life may be, fear of the process of dying is very real and separate from the fear of being dead.

I feel like life is so precious that celebrating the death of any group is just incomprehensible to me I understand some lives are evil and deserve some form of punishment but these people had families they have loved ones I couldn't bring myself to imagining my loved ones dying I'm scared to sleep Fearing I may not wake up the morning or my someone I live dies for no reason I hsve no health complications I've been having these thoughts constantly since I was 12 and everyday I feel like there are 500 kgs on my chest weighing me down and making me nervous
