https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stoicism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stoicism Eventually you get used to the thought and it stops being scary. Being busy helps, so you don't have time to think about it. And have faith that (natural) death is a slippery slope --as you age you'll lose the mental faculties to fear death, and you're physical pain will increase until you welcome death or morphine. Since you won't fear it then, there's no need to fear it now. Just go enjoy.
