Is death something you think about/ are lighthearted about?

@CrazyMusicLover I definitely worry more about life and being able to afford to stay alive for a long time 😬

@Kuronekko In good health and standard of living, yeah. 😬

@OlderSometimesWiser It's hard to watch people die for sure. I am looking forward to seeing them again though.

@bowman81 Ermm…… the enthusiastic thumbs up? 🤔

@AntisocialTroll It is strange that we let humans suffer the way we do. Its not right 😔

@AntisocialTroll I believe in the right to die. You should have full control over it, to decide. I believe a lot of people OD on Fentanyl for this very reason. It is easy to obtain and you can administer it yourself. Not sure what death would be like that, but I imagine your brain is so off the rails you won't consciously think about it until everything fades to black.

@JamesBugman I'm in the UK, Fentanyl is not easy to obtain here and I don't have any kind of contact for drugs except the Dr.

@Punches I have severe Bronchiecstasis, asthma, stage 4 COPD, severe right sided heart failure and a moderate problem with a left hand heart valve, so my breathing is knackered, the heart failure is the worst, I have periods of 20-60 minutes where I just can't catch my breath, no medication helps I just have to do my best to ride them out, they come out of nowhere and I no longer go out because of it, there isn't much they can do about the heart failure attacks except to try and keep the COPD under control, my heart and lungs are enlarged so I've serious pain from that and there are a lot of really horrible things that go hand in hand with the heart failure attacks that I'd rather not go into. Dying can be a lot longer process, that is far more horrible than you'd think.

@Kuronekko Agreed! There have been plenty of times recently that if I'd have had a button to press to just get it over with I would've, unfortunately I just keep going with almost zero quality of life in a constant state of suffering.

My apologies for the long misery post but as I'm sure you can imagine this is the toughest thing I've ever been through and it is making me utterly miserable.

@PepsiColaP Do you believe in an afterlife?

@Kuronekko unfortunately no

@Thevy29 putting this as the last to do on my bucket list.

@Thevy29 you know that finger wasn't meant for you right?

@SinlessOnslaught You mean like when your brain stops working and your body rots and you turn to dust? What do you think happens? Some invisible god is going to swoop down and scoop up your spirit and whisk it away to some magical beach where you spend the rest of eternity playing harp? Believe whatever you want to believe.

@JamesBugman Sounds like you hold a lot of frustration but thanks for your input.

@BlueVeins You ain't got anything to worry about for quiet a while.

@jshm2 I think it tends to consume those who are terrified of it rather than those of us used to the thought coming and going.

@JohnOlinger81 you're a wizard, harry.

@JohnOlinger81 It's the transition from human to Tortoise that really hurts, kills most folks.
