Help?
At night I start thinking about death, afraid that I might not wake up in the morning or suddenly die in my sleep, I try to take my mind off of it but there’s nothing I can do as everything goes back to me asking “what if?”

I've experienced this before - throughout life, though it's concentrated during certain periods of life where I was surrounded by numerous and consecutive losses, or in an era of ongoing health crisis.
What you may find helpful is sitting with these fears - what are they trying to tell you?
For myself, I'd realized there was so much I'd wanted to do that I was putting off.
Things that I'd regret not doing if today was my last. Once I realized this, I used these fears as motivation to get certain things accomplished, and even start working toward other goals of mine.
With that said, what do you believe your fears might be trying to say?
In terms of coping, what do you think could help you feel more comfortable and safe even if just a little bit?
