i've have been dealing with similar feelings about this since last summer. only about my mom though. i love her to death but we have an awful relationship and the guilt and sadness i would have if she passed away anytime soon would most likely ruin my life.

im not sure how to deal with it without going into a existential crisis. right now I'm just trying to spend more time with her and have good moments and make nice memories. I'm going to see her this sunday so we can get my taxes done and plan to just chat and cook dinner so yea idk I'm just rambling rn

but damn man i feel you big time. i guess all you can do is keep telling your self it's inevitable and happens to everyone.

sometime the thought of her being buried in the ground and me attending her funeral just makes me bust out crying and send me into a meltdown....

shits rough man, I'm emotionally weak and confused i've always sucked with emotions though

just typing this is makin a knot in my throat.

in op defense

they are probably pretty young and the thought of their parents death didn't really hit them until they realized their bodies are withering away everyday

well at least thats what happened to me, i didn't really put much thought into it until i started to notice my mother aging drastically

she just looks so old and helpless sometimes.

I got that feeling, immense feeling of sadness knowing my parents will die, when i was a child. At night I get such thoughts that they will cease to exist. It's so overwhelming that I cry.

Whats more sobering is the fact that they could be die at any moment, at their sleep, and we will never expect it. Knowing this and realizing this, my fights between my parents dwindled and I became more present in their lives. I started to hang out with them. I try my best to fully spend my tine, as much I can, with them.

So OP go kiss and hug and talk to them while they're still alive. Treat every encounter as if it was your last, that they are dying tomorrow. It's very sobering and enlightening m

yes and you will eventually die as well. stop being afraid to live. pick your balls up off the floor or hand in your man card stop sitting on the fence.

the world keeps turning regardless of whose in it.

i got some sad news for me last week: my buddy stopped responding to the chemo he was on for his cancer treatment was in his bowels. recovered but then it came back. and now its a open ended death sentance.

>there is always going going to be somebody who has it worse than you do.
