I won't lie, I had my first existential death related crisis when I hit my last milestone birthday. Embarrassingly enough, it happened on the bus.
I talked myself down from it by reminding myself that I don't remember what life was like before I was born. There just wasn't me, and then there was.
I can't help but think death isn't a similar experience.
Only, you know, in reverse.
