The fear of death is common but can be overcome with understanding from "summary" of How We Die by Sherwin B Nuland

The fear of death is a natural and universal human emotion, deeply ingrained in our psyche. It is a fear that often lurks in the shadows of our minds, waiting to surface when confronted with our mortality. Death is the great unknown, a mysterious and inevitable force that we cannot control. It represents the ultimate end, the final chapter in the story of our lives. However, this fear can be overcome with understanding. By delving into the mysteries of death and coming to terms with its inevitability, we can begin to unravel its hold over us. Understanding the processes that lead to death, the ways in which our bodies fail, and the various diseases and conditions that can hasten our demise can help demystify the concept of death. Knowledge is power, and in the case of death, it can be a source of comfort and reassurance. When we arm ourselves with information about death and dying, we are better equipped to face our fears and make peace with our mortality. We can begin to see death not as a looming specter, but as a natural part of the cycle of life. Furthermore, gaining an understanding of the cultural and religious beliefs surrounding death can provide solace and a sense of purpose. Many cultures view death as a transition to another realm, a passage to a higher plane of existence. By exploring these beliefs and finding meaning in them, we can find a sense of peace and acceptance in the face of death.
  1. The fear of death is a universal human experience, but it is one that can be overcome with understanding. By confronting our fears, seeking knowledge, and finding meaning in the mysteries of death, we can transcend our anxieties and come to terms with our mortality. Death may still be a formidable adversary, but with understanding on our side, we can face it with courage and grace.
