I need to get this off my chest, I'm still in school, I'm pretty young and we are currently having a funraiser for this kid that passed a couple years ago in an accident. Which I didn't think much of until another kid passed in a car crash, then I really started spiraling on the topic of death, I talked to my dad about it and he said around my age he got really depressed thinking 'what's the point in life if we just die anyways?' and then I started thinking about it too, I started thinking about all the things that could happen, a car accident, maybe I get sick, maybe there's something at the school, a fire, I don't know but it doesn't matter, I just keep spiraling, and it's gotten to a point where I'm thinking of being older and losing people I love to all the possible things that could happen. I've also stopped thinking about it on all my freetime, but when I do think about it, It's a lot worse. I know thinking about it will engrave it more in my brain but I just feel stuck, and I know it's probably normal because my mom and dad understood, but it feels like so much more than a cannon event, it hurts. And my thoughts go deeper too, It's not just 'what's the point of life if we just die anyways?' It's like falling into a hole that goes on forever, It's more like 'what's the point of life if all I think about is thinking about thinking about overthinking the point of life.'
