I have always had this since I can remember, I remember thinking it in my teens this has really effected my life. I finished school early dropped out of college never wanted to make anything of myself because I thought what's the point I'm not going to be here long. I'm 32 now and since my teens I never wanted to turn 30 and a few weeks after my 30 th birthday I had a nervous breakdown so now I think I am deffo right about dying young. I have children and some days it completely cripples me because I don't want to leave them. Although I feel your pain it's comforting to hear other people have this. I have never read to much in to this though as I have severe health anxiety. Although now I am on anti depressants the thought is still there but easier to deal with. I suppose we just have to go along with the ride as nobody really no s when there time is up and hope we get to a good old age where your body naturally wants to give up. Good luck and always try to get help rather than bottling it up which I did.

    There is nothing to say that you are going to die young and be away from your children. 

    What you are suffering with seems to be linked to anxiety and fears of dying.  Firstly you need to visit your GP and request that you are referred to the mental health team who are equip to be able to help you deal with these worries and fears. 

    When you are on track you will  be able to focus on future planning and be able to enjoy time with your children enjoying those plans.
