Hey there buddy. I know those thoughts can be really terrifying and bad and can impact you and your life really negatively. I would like to let you know that you are not alone and that there is always someone there for you. I know you can make it through those dark thoughts and become the best version of yourself. I really believe in you and I m really proud you reached out for help. If you ever want anything, a 1-1 chat or just a friend to talk to I m open for a chat so feel free to text me. Take care and be safe✨️🩵
It sounds like you're really carrying a heavy burden right now. Thinking about death can really be terrifying and overwhelming and it makes sense that it's taking a till on your mental health. It's good that you're sharing it here and it takes courage to open up about something that feels scary. Just know that you are not alone in this. Many others are currently dealing with these fears but don't have the courage to open up. You will overcome it. In the meantime, can I suggest that you see a therapist? You can consider reaching out to one here on 7 cups. Seeking help is one good way to overcome your fears. Here's a warm hug from me 🤗

I am not sure if it is enough to help but I like this quote:
„Don’t be afraid of death. Be afraid of unlived life”
It’s like reminding to not lose what we have left of our lives for worrying that they will end…
