Hey guys I have a question

[Helpmeeeee]

CW: d*ath

Does anyone else feel absolutely terrified and hopeless because everyone you know and love will eventually die?

Follow up question: How can I manage this? At this point I'm really scared of losing everyone, and I feel like it's gotten to the point where it's irrational. Like I'm worried about this almost all the time now and it makes me feel sick.
