How to get rid of thoughts of death?

[Wizard7]

I very often find myself thinking about my death or of people close to me. I think about every individual's reaction and other details. I want to push these thoughts away but they keep coming back.

Glen gave you good advice. And I will let you know your not alone. I never gave death much though, until 18 months ago. When I was diagnosed with a rare cancer. I went through treatment and surgery and am in remission. But I can’t find my old self. I have to get scanned 3 times a year. And with all the adds of t v reminding me. I have found something that helps. It’s kind of on the same thing as what glen said to you. I practice the Wim Hof breathing exercises twice daily. And cold water showers or bath twice daily. You don’t have to buy it. Just spend a couple hours on you tube. And you can figure it out. The breathing exercises and cold water, snap me back to survival and reality. I believe in an afterlife that makes it a bit easier. I pray during the breath hold on the breathing exercises. And I pray the 5-8 minutes I’m in the cold water. I end my nightly prayers asking god to show us a modern day miracle. Like grow an arm or leg back on an amputee, after thier trip to heaven. I say the miracles the people saw in the old holy books many thousands of years ago, are just too far away from our time. I pray that we need to see that type of miracle, so we can live more freely. I hope it helps you to know your not alone. Or abnormal, stay busy and exercise cardio exercise daily. Try Wim Hof breathing exercises twice daily and a cold shower twice daily. Sometimes we just get broken. But we have the ability to heal. I am 62 your much younger. Maybe you can help others after you help yourself.

You are most welcome. I love winter, and snow, and cloudy, cold days. 🌨
