I have severe Death Phobia - How can I come to terms with it?
I am 35 but I am so afraid to die that it occupys most of my time. I spend so much time focusing on death that I am truly not living.
How does one overcome such a fear?
Serious Answers only please.

I had the same problem and im very young, kinda weird lol. But i overcome it by looking at the atheistic views then the religious views. I compared facts of my religion (christianity) and facts that atheists use to talk about death. After all the reasearch i was still getting no where. I hoped there was a heaven but i was scared that the atheists might be right. So i went on my computer one night and researched a little more about people who work miracles that are christian (to see if God really exists).
I still was not convinced. Then i looked at life. If God did not exist then y do we live? And it does not seem possible to die and see eternal nothingness. So i looked at myself and thought, i am young i wont die. But so many young children/adults die daily.
After all this i relaized something. Yes, we all die and i believe there is a heaven but i looked at it as if there wasn't one. If there isn't i still need not worry because i know technology would be so advanced in the future to re-create my conciousness. So it will like being born again.
Option 1
You die, you go to heaven/hell.
And Option 2
You die, next thing you know your in a very high tech laboratory and all you remember is that ur supposed to be dead.
Im not sure if that helps but i hope it does.
I cant stand the fact of me dying some day, the thought terrifies me, i cant handle the fact that the world will keep going on without me in it, scary!
please seek professional help they can help you over come your fears
The truth is death is great if you are Christian. If you die a good Christian, you will go to heaven. Heaven is great. As a medium, I can assure you that there is an afterlife. (By "medium" I mean someone who can comunicate with the dead.)
Hello! First of all, did something happen to bring out this fear in you? I would try to think about that. Secondly, I strongly suggest that you see a therapist, as he or she will help you much more than we can. Maybe you can develop a new hobby. I go boating and feel really alive when I do so. Also, believe it or not, taking a bike ride makes you feel better too. Do you exercise? If not, try it! It kicks in your endorphins, which makes you feel really great!
Lastly, I would suggest that you take a look at your lifestyle. Is there something that you are doing that you may need to stop to prolong your life? Good Luck to you. If you want to talk, please email me.
Do some BASE jumping. That'll confront all those fears. Or make them come true. It's a 50/50 shot. I'm joking and being serious at the same time.
God (Jesus) and Therapy.
Take a look at this video for reassurance:
