Death vs. life

The fear of death is the manifestation of the fear of the unknown, although for some it may be the object of desire, it does not cease to cause a certain shudder or psychological embarrassment. Many have been versions of people who have died by minutes and of which they refer a pleasant experience if it has been in a non-voluntary way or as a frightening experience when it has been voluntarily sought; Suicide is always related as a chilling death. Why are there certain people who want to die and not enjoy life ?. Psychological factors are different depending on antecedents such as: personal history, mental disorders such as depression, group pressure, philosophical or religious ideas, intelligence, personality and coping mechanisms. We all react in an individual and different way in the face of adversity, before the same stimulus each person places an emotional burden on him, and his way of thinking and reacting will determine how to face it, if this person is weak he will think that death is the most Easy to give total solution to their suffering; But how other people can face the same situation successfully? It is here, what makes the difference between us human beings, the way we face problems, makes us more or less assertive in front of life; Living implies an effort to keep us in balance, and as Charles Darwin said "survives the strongest",Manages to live the strongest, facing the desires of death, facing death itself when we take care of ourselves, when we fight for our projects of life; There is always a tendency towards destruction in the human being, but also the one of construction and edification; Our minds play with these two tendencies, but always finally triumphs the desire to life, to refuse to pain, to avoid suffering; Is indispensable to win the death wish to be strong, to work hard and to fight, to work, to persist, to fight with the desire of life. If you feel that the death wish is stronger you should consult with a professional, or talk to a person you consider wise or trustworthy. Do not give up, do not let death win, triumph with life itself !!
