Is it scientifically possible? Is immortality (true, not the sort of biological immortality some creatures millions of years old have) truly a possible goal not for myself per se, but for humanity? I'm routinely struck with existential crises/panic attacks, and religion hasn't helped quell them one bit. It's this hot rush of sensation to my head, followed by the sensation of impending, irreversable nonexistence and a sudden chill. I'm pretty sure everyone gets them frequently and doesn't tell about them.

Its possible to replicate your your mind in a computer and have an exact replica of you exist indefinitly, but the wetware of your brain as it exists is limited to about 125 years of age, after which your subjective experience will certainly end.

I guess it's much easier to make the human body biological immortal than to upload your mind into a machine

It is. The idea that brains and computers mesh well stems from a misunderstanding about how the brain is composed/functions
