How do I stop thinking about the inevitability of my death and how everything is finite...

How do I stop thinking about the inevitability of my death and how everything is finite? I can distract myself easy enough for a short while while I play games and whatnot but I often crash back to the hallowing thought of no longer being alive. Please help. I don’t want to an hero cause I’m too scared

Don't do it op there's so much to look forward to.

spend your time instead of wasting it. Simple as that. The fact that you only have limited time should only bother you if you aren't using your time wisely.

Lots of stupid thought will go through your head in your travels around the sun. The key is not to dwell on them. Indulge your stupid thought for about a minute, then go, well that was a fucking stupid thought, and get on with life.

Initiatives that allow you to be happier tomorrow can be written down.

Also, notice one good thing throughout the day. Just one. Somewhat that made you smile or laugh.

Like you said, anything and everything that you do is a distraction to the question "what lies beyond life." Life is inherently suffering but it is within this suffering that some may find meaning, maybe even see some kind of universal empathy- or at least with your fellow human brother and sister.

Pretty soon we'll all die soon anyways, and it'll be fine. I've heard of no dead man complain that they're not alive anymore.

When it’s your time to die, there is absolutely nothing you can do about it

Everyone dies. There's probably nothing after death. You'll feel just like you felt before you were born. Nothing truly matters since our planet will be destroyed in 4 billion years. Since we have no conceivable way of colonizing other planets right now it's safe to assume we are doomed to extinction. The human race will be wiped out and nothing will have mattered as everything is lost.

So go ahead and masturbate 5 times in a row. It doesn't matter. Nothing does

I know. That’s the problem there’s so much I won’t see and so much that I’ll miss when I die and there’s nothing I can do about it. The void swallowing everything I am and what I worked for is what consumes my mind.
I guess. I’ve taken up hobbies recently but I just feel like it’s not enough. I’m turning 22 this month and already I feel like it’s over for me. I know it’s not but this rut is so fucking hard to get out of.
I just want to stop having these thoughts all together. They make me want to just cry.
I was recommended to buy a journal by a roommate and it’s sat at my bedside table for the past month or two. Maybe I’ll try to use it.

there's nothing wrong with dying. Death is part of life as much as left is part of right. You have to accept that the whole beauty of life and human existence is its imperfection, its temporality. We're here to laugh and cry, love and hate. Death is a very special thing but you shouldn't be scared. When it's time, it's time, you know. When it happens, just relax and open your mind to appreciate for your next life.

simple, You dont, even if you spend your time perfectly the thought of never being ever again for all of eternity is scary

Easy. When you start to get old. Do 6 lines of coke before you go to sleep every night. Hopefully you won't wake up. No pain brother

Find an extremely difficult challenge that your innate abilities are uniquely suited to accomplish and make it your life's work to do just that. Multiply that times seven billion and you have civilization

Odds are most peoples deaths will be painful and slow. It's exceedingly rare to die painlessly while unconscious. Odds are OP will suffer a slow agonizing death like most people

>The void swallowing everything I am and what I worked for is what consumes my mind.

that's just egocentric. you're not THAT great. People will remember you and you'll leave some traces anyway but like, just enjoy your life and try to help others whom you care about, or strangers too, you're unique and beautiful deep inside of course, but don't act like you're some diamond and like oh no the world will stop turning when I'm gone!!

Everything is temporary except maybe the universal consciousness. Enjoy life to the fullest, satisfy your curiosity, do what you dream of..
You life has meaning within the timescale of our human lives, and withing some kind of geograhic area in space where you happen to go through that. If you worry about hundreds of years in the future and all that, don't. You'll be part of all that and more as part of the collective consciousness. We're always awake somewhere.

Death is part of the script, but you can avoid it and delay it in many times, you have to take care of your life. You still have plenty of years to enjoy, so do that, you only live once.

Just have to get through a bad day. Then you can see how you feel tomorrow. You don't have to keep at this for fifty or seventy more years. Don't worry about that. Just see how you feel in twelve hours.

this is a good thread that deserves to be discussed by the best philosophical minds of Any Forums

99.9999% of people are completely forgotten to time within 100 years of their death.

I used to think about my death. Then I realized, if I die, nothing will matter anymore because I'm dead. That makes me stop worrying every time.
