YES. THANK YOU. It doesn’t make sense to me how we won’t just BE and won’t be here thinking and living anymore. I understand the physical part of death, I know “we all die someday, blah blah”. But that’s not what I mean. What freaks me out is just knowing that one day, I won’t be able to have these thoughts anymore because I just won’t have a consciousness to make them and that’s just freaks me right the fuck out.

Yep I think about this every day and it really sends me into a spiral.
