Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

I cannot get over my fear the non-existence after death. Every time I think about it all my feelings start bubbling up and I get depressed. It's terrifying thinking about non-existence, it fills me with so much dread

It's one of those things that i mull over in my mind quite a bit. I basically live life as if i were to fall over dead the next day, like a lot of my family did. I manage my accounts, make sure my debts are paid, and prepare for a future that, whichhopefully never comes, my wife doesn't have to deal with the mistakes i made in the past. Hemingway said it best, a person dies twice: once in person, and the second the last time they say your name. I'm fine with the first, and doing everything i can to prevent the second.
