I'm posting way too much, but I have so much to let loose.

I'm working towards becoming comfortable with death again, like I was when I had my near-lethal attempts. But I am stuck on the fear that death may not be non-existence and OCD makes me fixate on these thoughts.

I'm afraid of being reincarnated and things being worse. I'm afraid of being able to "watch over" my family and having to see them suffer. I'm afraid that ending my life won't end my consciousness and suffering. Even though I don't even really believe in all that stuff.

I want this all to get easier...

Do you mean being okay with death in order to die by suicide? If so, don't try to CTB unless you're absolutely certain it's what you want. I've postponed my CTB date countless times because of the same fears as you - reincarnation, an afterlife, or remaining as a spirit. If you have any doubts or fears about death, then there is no shame in acknowledging, accepting, and unpacking them. If you can introspect about death, then you can also do that for living.

As we die anyhow we have to take what happens after death as it is. UNLESS the way we act in this world has an impact on our next world, for example heaven or hell, good or bad karma. So the reason for your fear is probably your cultural background that evaluates suicide as something bad.
In other cultures it is appreciated if someone who is a burdon for his community takes his life.

Okay lets say reincarnation is real, why do you think you would reincarnate into a human again? you could reincarnate into an insect with a short lifespan or a deva (god) massive lifespan the thing is you would not even know is your next life you got incarnated do you remember your previous life? so don't worry about whatever happens after death think about what do you want to happen after death to feel better

i would totally puke if i thought about reincarnation or the afterlife for too long lol. i would get irrationally angry if i had to live again and my life was any worse than what i have going on right now. i just refuse to believe that it's real since we have no sentience before we exist, so it must be the same when we die. when we fall unconscious in accidents or put under sedatives, then i imagine death being the same. the loss of senses and the inability to move or think. it's comforting to think it like that. i don't imagine pets going anywhere when they die.

If I could only return as a dog.. my dogs are the only ones to have ever cared and truly love me, and show it constantly, not only because I feed and house them either, but because I'm kind to them and give them the respect they indeed deserve.. so id be OK returning as a dog, if in the right environment, like here with me. I wouldn't live too long, maybe 10-12 years, and someone to be my friend, wouldn't be as bad, as life is currently. 😂

If it's real then you're already a part of it and know that having no memory of a previous life is an essential part of it.

it's not real

No evidence

a soul afterlife reincarnation are meaningless abstract concepts. No details, can't break it up into smaller parts , can't see how or why it would work. For example Where is the power source for a soul etc.?

Anyone can say an idea or concept.

I will tell you why reincarnation is false as someone born into a religion that has reincarnation as central pillar of it
1) if it was real you would have lived numerous previous life but you don't have any memory of even one now someone may say that you forgot your past memories as you grow up so my second point
2) have you seen all these reincarnation stories have a similarly if you guessed it it's the geographical boundary like if you ask an american person of his past life he will always say he was american or if you ask an European he will always say he was an European same way an Indian would always say he was an Indian in his past life
3)you will never hear someone born in america that he was an ainu( a tribe in japan) because he didn't even that exist reincarnation stories are based on the knowledge we had and until 100 years most people were geographically bound and didn't even know that others existed like my grandparents had no idea syria or Bulgaria existed and has their own unique cultures
To sum it up reincarnation stories existed as the same reason as religion the limited knowledge of our ancestors
