    Yes. I know that dread all to well friend. And no, you're not gonna die. You made it yesterday, and the day before that, and the day before that.

    Try and focus on your life and try to be chill. I know I hate it when people tell me all I have to do is calm down, like it's that easy. But just remember, you made it. And you're gonna do it again tomorrow.

    i feel exactly like this everyday, ive recently lost 2 people who were considered close to me or a friend/family member, and anxiety has been through the roof lately. i jus keep thinking that im going to die even tho im pretty sure im healthy, this thought jus cannot get out of my head, and i always search up what it means, most the time it says its anxiety and some other websites sometimes suggest sixth sense which gives me worse anxiety, if anyone on here has tried pills, or therapy, or anything that helps them ease this thought as it comes and goes, i would really appreciate any recommendations as its really affecting me at only 16:( here if anyone needs a chat.

      Im struggling with this over the past few days, I saw a video which triggered my anxiety. it was a Video of someone who died and all of the comments were saying she knew she was gonna die. For some reason that triggered me into thinking im going to die soon. I suffer with bad anxiety and most websites are suggesting that its just that and after reading some replies on here it makes me feel better that other people get this too. Just checking in to see if you are still struggingling with this problem and if it has gone away? Hope you are ok!

    i dont know why but lately i seem to feel like im going to die.. i have health issues and for 13 years i thought i could handle my ailment.. however lately i have this feeling of dying soon.. and it scares me so much i began hyperventilating.. im so afraid and feel so alone. but the medical system has failed me over and over.. im either angry all the time or so depressed i cant function.. worst of all it seems death is around me my cousin passed away a week ago and my aunt past away 10 days ago, maybe thats why im so on edge.. but then i remember how tired i am of all of the daily bull s**t.. so maybe its for the best. maybe all i need is a permanent nap!

    i felt exactly like that yesterday. i usually have full control of my mind and thoughts but yesterday i kept feeling like i was gonna just drop dead. i was having a full on panic attack and eventually dissociated which i've never done before. it was an outer body experience almost. i was numb and waiting for something bad to happen. i get these random thoughts that im gonna die soon or someone around me is. i also just recently got off my anxiety medication, which seems like it made things worse. just know you are not alone, i feel better knowing im not the only one. i do hope this passes for you and everyone else. its an awful feeling. love and blessings to you all. it will get better

    Hello Josy0405, I go through litterally the exact same thing during these times. My brain has been convinced lately that i'm going to die soon. My heart feels abnormal and I have difficulty breathing, it happens due to stress. -Ryan

    I've been feeling exactly the same way and thought maybe I'm just going insane. so i just had to Google up why am I feeling like this? ( I know Google) 😂 but hey it brought me here so 🙂 for the last year memories good and bad have been coming into my head and now I'm thinking is it that my mind has been preparing me, just to show me I've had the best and worst days but now it's coming to an end? I was thinking you do hear of people knowing their going to die and then they do. I remember years ago my mother was cooking and I was sat at the dinner table and all of a sudden I wanted to tell her to turn around and tell her I love her as I felt death was near. 6 months later she suddenly died Xmas day. I also got the same feeling with my nan who a year later died Xmas day. my father on my mothers birthday. also my animals. now I have that feeling again and I feel it's going to be me. sorry I don't mean to come on all depressive. I have people dependent on me at home. my sister and kids. one who's brain damage with multiple health issues. I've never shared my thoughts I'm not good at talking to people as I hardly socialize. I'm grateful I have a roof over my head and feed my family I know I'm in a position most people aren't ( i know full well growing up ) I have noticed sometimes I hold my breath without even realising and my anxiety doesn't help with my breathing. I hope your anxiety gets better and hopefully it's just all in our head and we can somehow tackle it. take care x
