No for real though. I struggled more with that when I was a bit younger. But I've come to terms with more stuff now, but it still gets me every onnce and a while. Like all of a sudden I'm thinking about death and the end of everything when I'm trying to sleep and then I can't sleep But for me, just having the mindset of 'whatever happens, happens' helps a lot. Like the phrase, come what may. You just have to take what comes and figure out how to make it work for you. I hope it gets better for you thought!!

Yes I do but mine is kinda like I'm trying to sleep then my brain thinks about death for a split second and then I can't sleep and have a panic attack

@jboi that's exactly the problem I have. Tonight it was because lightning outside made me think of my mortality (idk why) and that intense burn due to a panic attack started
like I will try and try for hours on end but thoughts just keep rushing in and I simply cannot stop them and some times it makes my stomach hurt causing me to panic because I have a fear of vomit :(
I specifically get paranoid that my last moment i will be in pain and confused and distressed which only makes me want to sleep more just in case is sooner rather than later, it gets worse when my pain is worse. But because it makes me paranoid and panicky I cant sleep and feel like I'm dying so it spirals.
I had a fear of sleeping for a really long time because I had a worsening condition that could have killed me at any moment. I'd lay awake for hours because I was convinced if I fell asleep I wouldn't wake up.
@Javen I hope you're doing better :)
@Len i am doing a lot better thank you :)
