Ugh, yes. I've had this for about 6 months now. One of my friends died suddenly in a freak accident, and before I guess he told one of his friends that he had a feeling his time had come. Ever since then I've been terrified, but I try to look back on those nights a few months ago that I was absolutely certain that I was going to die and realize that it was just anxiety.

I constantly have those feelings of impending doom and it leads to existential questions and intrusive thoughts... It loops a lot for me. I'm currently in therapy over these feelings... I use a lot of distraction too... It's never a fun thought :/

I had a feeling like that once too...but the time I thought was it came and went almost five years ago.  We all gotta go someday, but I doubt most of us will really see it coming.

There is a man I know who is now 72 and he told me he thought he would never make it past middle age and
then retirement. A client of mine who is a physician told me there are two keys to longevity; heredity and luck.

Hi , I am 31 yrs old and I am terrified that something will happen to me. It's horrible to think of this , I just wish I could enjoy my life right now but instead I'm worrying about things that could happen.  I wish I could be worry free , but it's not easy for me - I have a great imagination when it comes to my anxiety :-/
I wish I had advise for how you are feeling but alls I can say is try to keep busy and distract your mind. I try to label my thoughts and stop them before they take over an sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Good luck and I'm sure you will get to have babies in your future :)

I am so thankful I am not alone in these thoughts!  I just turned 23 and I am so convinced my time is near.  I very carefully avoid saying anything that might hint of my demise (example: "This is your last dinner!" said by my parents before I went on a trip) and I also very carefully talk about being old...almost to try to convince myself that I WILL make it to old age. 

Stories of people who thought they were going to die young and did terrify me.  Where are all the people that were convinced they would die young and are now super old?  I'm not talking about people who did a bunch of drugs and lived dangerously because the odds are against those people for sure.  I mean just regular Joes who made it through these fears!

I'm sorry we are all dealing with this fear and I hope we all live long and wonderful lives!
