I don't know. When i think about dying at least with SN itll be somewhat peaceful. The afterlife is the unknown part. I am positive I want to die. I just am hoping what's after is somewhat pleasant. So ig just fear of the unknown and all that.
This is such a good question. I think I'm mostly afraid of failing to die. Also, yeah the pain scares me somewhat as well, I hope i have enough commitment when it comes to it, i don't want to panic and call emergencies.
In a way, i calm myself by the fact that dying is inevitable anyway, and by the comparison of birth, I would even assume that it's not something you'll "realize", like it's probably traumatic enough (like birth) for your brain to shut off during the process. I dunno, just something i tell myself to comfort me
Alas I have been in contact with other beings I choose to believe and their teachings fill me with sadness that CTB will not change anything longterm. The universe gives you life to learn lessons and when you die and the universe deems you ready it gives you another one to learn a different lesson but if you CBT and don't learn whatever lesson you was meant to you repeat a similar life until you do learn the lesson you was meant to. To me that sucks as you start again as a baby - I hated childhood and school. Also to know that you will get a similar life sucks. Makes me hesitant to CBT. Though I almost want to to test the advice but trouble is you wouldn't know as very few people recall past lives. A quandary indeed.
I am not afraid of dying but rather failing and dealing with pain as well as the consequences/fallout after the failed attempt. That's what I fear more than the attempt and method itself.

Nervous about the process.
I feel like dying is slow and drawn out without accounting for time dilation.
It's the physical pain that has got me stuck here.
Our natural instinct in hesitation and the bodys will to live that scares me.
The otherside, the unknown.. not at all.
Not me. I'm actually more afraid of what's to come and living through this to just die anyways. No one lives forever anyway. We all gonna experience death one day so what's the point of being afraid?
I feel like I almost welcome it. I wake up every morning heartbroken I got to live through another day and hoping to die in my sleep. Some days it makes me feel better and puts me to sleep to think about death. It soothing
Not at all. I feel death is a part of living and having lived. I just hope I can enjoy a week of "something" I wanted to do in my life then I'll off myself.
I'm scared that when the moment comes I'll want to back out because it will be painful and I wont be able to, or I'll mess it up and make things even worse. My head is so tormented atm.
Dying itself? No. What happens after my death (possible utopic or dystopic worlds, I hate the idea that I could get hooked up to a dopamine/infinite pleasure button in 5 years, like the people who couldn't orgasm and they just went offff on the button as I would) does worry me. It's kind of a gamble since my issues could be fixed.
I don't remember who said this but I remember it from years ago "I'm not afraid of death I just don't want to be there when it happens."
Me however I've come to just expect it at this point.
Also for some reason my mind has some hope, some grasping thing that I can't control that twists my thoughts, regardless of how illogical it is, the twisty thing works it's magic, guessing it's SI
Death itself - not really. I'm quite convinced it's nothing, devoid of any emotions.
The dying procces/CTB: Super afraid. 80% that it will be painful/very distressing, 20% of possible failure.
I'm not afraid of dying itself. I guess I am afraid of the unknown (being autistic I like certainty) so having an attempt is also unknown stuff as it's not predictable if you will survive or not.
I wasn't afraid before, but tonight I feel anxious and afraid of everything. The good news is there actually is an afterlife and if you were a good person you get to go there, the bad news is if you weren't a good person you boil(for eternity probably).
Even though dying won't last forever, my main concern is how uncomfortable it will be... That's it. I have a "belief" about what happens after we die but honestly I don't care what happens. I'll find out when I get there. This is the best choice.
