I Am Lost, I Am Lost In My Mind, My Emotions, My Feelings

When i think about life too much in general. EVERYTHING scares me.
Being alive scares me. Being aware that i am alive scares me. Knowing that tgis is the only world that i can live in scares me( and i really dont feel like hearing the its your perspective stuff)
Just a general existential horror/dread.
So many things could go wrong and sometimes it feels like all those things that could go wrong are staring me in the face, smiling menacingly. And hear i am walking through life. Unable to tear my eyes from them.
Just fear, useless fear, useless anxiety, useless emotion.

Omg I so get this. There have been times I've seriously contemplated suicide because of these kinds of feeling getting so intense it was like physical pain.

I try to think of it like a roller coaster. It will be scary and thankfuly over soon.

Just the other night my bf and I were watching the end of Water World. At that scene where the guy on the boat in the oil tank got blowed up and he sees it coming and says, "Oh thank god" we agreed that our last thoughts would probably be similar.

To quote the Kids in the Hall:

Life is short. Life is shit. And soon it will be over.

You're overwhelming yourself with the endless possibilities of what can go wrong. Why not focus on what could go right? Someone once told me that 90% of our fears and stresses are unfounded. And I've this to be mostly true. It's helped me worry and stress less. It also helps to recognize that there is only so much that we can do, much of life is out of our control anyways, so why not sit back and enjoy the ride? : )

@NewKidInTown id like to think that most of my life is a consequence of my actions. Or my listening to others espically when i was young. Id like to think that i am the consequence of my actions, well and my parents actions

@TURTLEGOD Life is like that, eventually things will even out so that if you've done good, and have been good to others, it will come around back to you. I really believe this.

This fear...lack of love. Every single choice is either based on fear or love. No, this is not a matter of perspective. It's your reality. Don't like it then change it, because if you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you've always got'.
