> i dont know whats wrong with me but i can't stop worrying about one thing: death, aging, etc...I keep thinking about how old i'm getting , my father and mother, even my dog are getting. im only seeing life as finite for the first time. it gets to the point where my mind clouds up with so many thoughts i can't concentrate on anything. anyway tonight i was listening to some sad song that randomly came on the radio and i just broke down and cried for a long time, the first time ive cried in a long while. what is this,,anxiety, depression?? what?

Hi,
Sorry to hear you are having these problems.
This problem could just be a normal part of life or it might indeed be a psychopathology.

How long has this been going on? Has anything, ie a death, happened to a friend or loved one of late?

I myself sometimes think about my parents ageing...how they will be gone some day. But this is a part of life we must all accept. The great thing is that we don't know what happens after death...if our consciousness is obliterated we can only feel pain about death while being alive! So why worry? But then again, if your mind is constantly focusing on these thoughts against your will, it could be an obsessive problem which might need medication.

How old are you? Are you married/with a partner? Working a job?

You obviously sound depressed and this in itself, if severe enough, requires medication.

Sometimes, when we are not occupied enough these thoughts can haunt us.

I'm really sorry I can't help more. But I need more info.

But rest assured, we are all in the same boat with regards to death: It happens to us all and we can try and accept it peacefully.

Take care,

Ace
