What do you believe happens after death?

I only believe death to be non-existence where this dreadful, torturous existence I just always saw as a mistake is all gone and forgotten about which is all I hope for, for me only non—existence could ever be positive, I wish for no more pain and no more suffering, I just wish for permanent relief from the abomination of existence and I'll always prefer to not exist than be burdened with this existence, all I want is peace.

Nothing...

I try not using beliefs as much as possible so i don't personally believe this or that happens.
There are things i know for sure they will happen, like - my body will be processed according to my family's will because, let's be honest, no one gives flying intercourse to what i have to say in this matter once i'm dead.
And there are things i hope will happen, like - i hope there will be absolutely nothing. Same as period before i was born. Do i remember anything of that time? Nope. Did i feel anything? Or thought anything? No. So i hope exact same will hope after i die. Some say death is like going to sleep and never waking up as birth (or actually memory activation) is like waking up without going to sleep in the first place and that's exactly what i hope for.

Non-existence; as in complete and utter destruction of self.

Not 'relief', not 'rest' or 'peace'. That just assumes there is a consciousness that still feels, but rather nothing.

There is no 'you' left, no awareness of being gone, no witness to the void; an absence so complete and deafening it completely redefines the idea of 'absence'.

'You', no matter who or what you were, simply are not.

I think reincarnation and void are both quite possible.

I thought about it, and you just start existing for no reason, not remembering anything before being created. Who's to say that won't happen again? Though this isn't necessarily a cause for distress, as you may be reborn as someone happier.

Void sounds logical and nihilistic, and I can believe in it, but it's hard to ignore reincarnation myself.

oblivion. i dont think we are important or special. religion makes absolutely no sense. no one really knows though. it could literally be anything.
