For some reason, ultimate fear for me is a painful death. I think it has to do with a life of anxiety and OCD. Logically I know that the odds of this happening are extremely unlikely, but I can't absolutely prove to myself 100% that it won't happen. I don't fear death, just a painful one. Obviously I can't spend my whole life in anxiety, I must enjoy life. Any advice for just "letting go" and saying - even with the possibility of a painful death, it's best to just live life?

I would say just don't overthink it. It's not like you can live in a bubble.

I don’t fear death at this point but I guess I do care how I go a little. I mean I know I don’t want to die being mauled by an animal so I won’t put myself at risk too much there.

I'd hate to die by drowning.

I have more of a fear of death. I am scared of it more than anything. that. I also fear getting old and having problems. I’d rather just go in my sleep one day and be done. Working for a lot of older people I hear and see them with all kind of problems. Not an idea I like.

As long as I don't burn to death or get eaten by a shark, I don't care how I die. Just as long as they can harvest my organs.

Just don't think about it.

My favorite horror film is Dawn of the Dead. I watched that film very early on. As a kid I'd spend hours looking around, planning. Planning what room would be best to make my "hidden apartment" ala Dawn of the Dead.
So every day I'd go to school and every day I'd hate my options. So my biggest fear as a kid was for a catastrophic event to happen while I was in school. I HATED the thought of zombies, or floods, or tornados, or whatever happening while I was in class.
I'd always, to this day even, sit in the back or on an edge of the room. So I could see what was coming, where the surrounding people are and what they're doing.
I often think about this.

Brother Major... Instead of focusing on your fear of death, why don't you focus on your LOOOOOOOOOVE of life!
LOVE is the key to living in prosperity. And I want yooooooouuu to know... That yooooooouuu have a friend in me. That being said, if you need someone to talk to, I don't really have time right now because I'm too busy spreading my message of love. But I'm sure there are some toll-free lines you can call.
Please just always remember... I LOOOOOOOOVE YOOOOOUUUUUU!

I think you need to let go of fear. My Dad had a massive heart attack last May. It fell under a catagory called a “Widow Maker” with 7% chance of survival. He lived. He’s lucky. But, he said he remembers falling and feeling nothing, and it was dark. No lights, no clouds, no noise. Just darkness. He was woken up by a UPS dock worker performing CPR. He then soent the next 3 weeks in a hospital after open heart surgery. He also broke his ankle from his fall. He was given amnesia medication so he would forget the surgery. But, I will never forget his words. No pain. No angels. Just nothing. An empty soundless void.
So, enjoy the vibrant noisy life, cause, the after life sounds dark and quite.

My advice... occupy your mind with other things. Read, listen to music, watch TV/Movies, hobbies, school work, a job, etc. Just get on with your life. If it is on your mind too much and you cannot get it out you may need to talk to a therapist to help. If you are a child talk to your parents about it.

Other than his foot being totally to the side, he was his normal self at the hospital when we met up with him. Made jokes, had no memory loss, no brain damage. Nurses said there was no way he should be this normal.

The cardiologist said some survivors claim to hear their blood pumping in their ears during the dying period. He said he heard nothing. Just silence and darkness.

control your fear - realize that you are afraid of the fear death brings, not death itself.
