I want to be a hundred years old, dont have any good reasons for that, but on your 100 birthday you get a letter from the king here in sweden  that would be cool. Its a hard question, I want to live a long and healthy life, it would be heartbreaking to face that day when your nearest friends dies. But I don't know if I want to be the one who dies first... And I would like to die before my children.. |

losing my mind terrifies me. and seems to happen a fair bit in my family but then, mentally i don't seem to be the same as most of my family. but i'm not entirely sure that helps It scares me, but not as much as the thought that it will happen to my parents. I'm terrified that my dad will end up with Alzheimers; it's extremely common on his side of the family. If it happened to me, it's highly unlikely I'll know what's going on, so at the end of the day it's not going to bother me. I don't want to visit my parents only for them to not recognise me, it would tear me apart. We used to visit my grandad every day to check he was alright, that he had everything, that he hadn't burned the house down...in hindsight, although it was heartbreaking, some of it was quite funny - he claimed once that his Rolls Royce had been stolen. We kept telling him he hadn't had one for 30 years, he was quite insistent that he did have one, and then went outside to have a look. We watched him, he came back in, sat down and started drinking his tea, and we asked him if he found his Rolls Royce. He looked at us blankly and asked us what we were on about: 'I haven't had a Rolls Royce for 30 years.' |

I hate thinking about death, depressing! Although a couple of years ago my heart stopped and it was a 'fun' moment when I got to feel a whole lot of terror and realise death is not what I want (I was one of those emo-tastic teenagers who used to bitch and whine that life sucks and said 'kill me now' far too much even though I had no bloody reason to)
But realistically with my crappy heart and the general lack of care for myself that I take I'll probably die early. Though I'd hate to grow old and start to lose my mind because my mind is all I have to keep me company - although both my grans who are in their 80's are all independent, one of them still works, the other one just goes on all those old people coach holiday things XD
As for friends - don't have any so no problem there! I also doubt I'll ever have kids.

Unfortunately, Aubrey de Grey is a bit yabbo...
Interesting enough to listen to, though.

As long as I don't die before finishing up a book or film I think I'll be fine.
I can't imagine living past 100, and 1000 is just absurd. The body would be in terrible condition. 50 seems like an okay age. Unless of course I start disintegrating at a faster rate; then sooner is better.

Errm. De Grey talks of stalling the ageing process so the body wouldn't be in bad condition

50 seems like an okay age. To DIE? Fucking hell, enjoy your last three decades or so. |

The first 20 years obviously aren't going too well...

50 seems like an okay age.. At the moment I'm thinking the ideal age to die would probably be around.. oh 23? Have I just broke my own personal best for soul sapping miserablism? I think I have.. |

I vote for the asteroid end. I don't want anyone to have to grieve over my death and I do not want to grieve over any more deaths. If we all die together wouldn't than be incredibly romantic...eh maybe too romantic.

I'm already regretful enough of having an estranged relationship with my father, so I would like to die before my parents.

Oh, oh. Mixed feelings.
I’ve always wanted to die young; I’m terrified of growing old and each birthday is another onslaught of terrible feelings. My biggest mid-life crisis was at.. 16, I’m pretty sure, so I’m likely to die at 32. Parents shouldn’t see their children die before them, however, so my health-focused parents would have to die before me in some freak accident. I would also like my close friends and sister to die before me, so that means everyone needs to die quickly.
My selfish self-self in depressed teenager self wanted to die without considering anything/anyone else, and once I’m past it I’ve become mentally ill in other ways but sensible. I’m terrified of my future and how I would hold a job with my state of mind; Life in general terrifies me in so many ways and it’s not something I enjoy. So. Everyone please die so I can die without a quilt of guilt, but then again I don’t want them to lose wonderful life they clearly want.
Die after parents, but before friends & such.
God, I sound incredibly morose. This is why I avoiding posting on this thread before.

omg...usually i don't want to think about this topic...
I'd rather die before my best friends or my 4 sisters or my brother die. But I don't want them to see me die so...i really don't know.
ofcause everyone want's to die (sometimes) when you feel bad or something like that ...and i want it very often... but there are so many thinks we should discouver so i hope i'll live as long as i can
but i NEVER want to get in a nursing home!! I think that#s just like a prison

God told his son it's time to come home
I promise you won't have to die all alone
I need you to pay for the sins I create
His son said, "I will but Dad, I'm afraid!"
-The Thermals
I have a congenital fear of dying alone and unloved. That's why I'm so insidiously charming!

i dont want to die alone, i am also TERRIFIED of growing old.
my dad died when he was 39 and i will always count that as ANCIENT.
Simple fact of the matter is that ill probably die of lung cancer, unless mental ex-racehorse dusnt manage to do so before the fags do!
