Fear of death

Does anyone else have this?
It seems so stupid when I say it or write it but somewhere inside me atm I'm feeling it.
I've been so sick for so long now that these thoughts keep crossing my mind. What would happen of I died? What would happen to the girl and dh? How woul they survive? I'm completely scared. Just as I have one thing under control I get sick with something else. It's a completely irrational though but one I can't get out o my head. It's keeping me awake at night thinking about it. This isn't normal right? Help me I don't know how to stop these thoughts in my head

I have a terrible fear that DP will die. As I have learnt to rely on him so much, and even more now that we are expecting, it terrifies me. He can be so reckless sometimes and I feel scared that one day he won't come home. Whether it be by car accident, work accident, footy injury or if there is an incident on the days he works in the maximum security gaol. I think I couldn't be without him, especially as a single mum! I get cranky if he hurts himself, or texts and drives... I have wondered if other people worry so much about losing their partners...

I do that too. When he is out I make him text to let me know when he'll be home or if there are issues. Not obsessive texting but enough to keep me sane. I know I'd be ok but I stress about the opposite

I often worry i will die and i don't want to die.

I'm also scared of getting old. I have these irrational thoughts that i won't make it to 25, 30.. etc etc i had the same thought about turning 21. I just kept thinking i would never see it. Totally weird i know.

I too get these thoughts in my head every now and then. Yes, I know that realistically everyone dies at some point, but when I actually sit and think about it, I get really scared and depressed and can't sleep. I don't want to die. I love being alive too much. I don't know, maybe if I am lucky enough to live to a ripe old age I will feel 'ready', but I don't think I ever will. I have to push it out of my mind so I don't think about it and obsess.
