I started taking an anti-depressant medication a couple weeks ago and in the past week or so I noticed that I have started thinking about death in a way that I haven't really thought about it before. It's kind of difficult to describe, but it suddenly hit me that when I die, everything is over. And it suddenly hit me how terrifying this idea is. I grew up believing in an afterlife, but for the longest time I've been sort of an agnostic and I find it very likely that there is nothing after death. But when I've thought about dying, I never really thought about the idea of nor existing anymore. All I've thought about is the moments leading up to death and the moment of death itself and what I would feel in those moments. However now that seems to have changed. I had a dream the other night that I was being hunted by ISIS and even in the dream I found myself terrified of the idea of not existing anymore. I've had dreams in the past where I was threatened with death and even dreams where I've been killed and I have never felt this kind of fear before. I am wondering if maybe before it was my depressive state that caused me to not really fear death and that now I have the same fear as normal people? Does this sound like it's more like how normal people think?
