overcoming death anxiety

On a side note, if you've ever beaten a video game, you know more about computers than about 90% of people alive today. Yay us!

Food for thought:

1) The worst-case scenario is that death is just a dreamless sleep. Most people would pick hell over oblivion. Some would even pick hell over heaven. 

2) Realize that death is inevitable. It is the price we pay for the gift of life. 

3) Imagine you could build an afterlife that would maximize happiness. You'd need to be flexible about your beliefs of heaven and hell because everybody dies and thus must all go to the same place.

4) Your afterlife needs dogs, because all dogs go to heaven or something. 

5) Your afterlife needs to fair to kids somehow. Kids die early sometimes and have to go somewhere.

6) Your afterlife has to punish the right people somehow. And remember that kids will be around to see it. 

7) Did I say dogs already? "Most dogs go to heaven" is unappealing for some reason. 

8) Ask yourself how your afterlife would handle people with serious injuries or disabilities. 

9) Does your afterlife allow the dead to communicate with the living? If so, how? 

10) What is approximate location, temperature, season, and time of day for your afterlife? Is everybody there going to be OK with it? 

I could go on, but you get the idea. Microdosing LSD, ayahuasca, peyote, mescaline or scopolamine 
might get your creative juices flowing. Even an extra strong marijuana edible might work. Be warned about this method. It can land you in a psychiatric hospital for days or weeks.
