I hear drowning is considered a good way to go, but I think if I had a choice how I died it wouldn't be by drowning. I don't really fear death, I just fear not living my life to the full and enjoying every moment for what it is.

Dying alone. The physical part doesn't scare me, it's the emotional life that leads up to death that absolutely scares the ever-loving crap out of me.

I just heard the news today of a local fishing boat with a crew of 7 on board that I knew well, that capsized in heavy weather and sank with only one lad escaping, the rest probably trapped in the vessel as it went down, This to me would be one of the worst ways to die, a slow suffocation trapped and unable to escape.

Cancer, just lost a friend to it.

Eaten by fire ants.

Slow and painful.

Dying totally unexpectedly with the rest of my life ahead of me and my last thought being, "But I had so much left to do..."

I fear dying alone.

I'm answering my own question because I had another way I would not want to die. Being trapped underground alone with no hope of rescue in a dark cave, sandwiched and stuck between two rocks unable to move. Left alone to slowly die of dehydration and loneliness.

Something painful or that would leave me open to abuse, like dementia. Otherwise I don't fear death.

Slow death by an incurable disease that leaves my body and/or my mind deteriorating while my family has to watch.

Being buried alive. I'm quite claustrophobic.

A long drawn out, painful death or being physically incapacitated but mentally alert (locked in syndrome).

I fear being killed by a bible believing religious fanatic. Be it a Christian, Jew, Muslim, or any other person who believes in a higher power. A true bible follower to be sure. That would be my most horrible death. Thou shall not kill...what a joke!

A forgotten one.

Being reduced to a state of physical inability to care for myself, mind still intact.

Fire and drowning are mine as well.

Anything that is slow and drawn-out, like being swallowed by a snake, being on fire, suffocating, or drowning. I'd rather have something quick and short, like falling from a plane.
