T_T;
Hmm… I would say… Heartbroken.
crazy
I’ll take a stab at it and say a Coroner.
i wouldn’t call them anything except their name. cuz i don’t classify ppl.
but i would seriously talk to them and why they think about death and dying all the time.
they prolly need some help or maybe just a friend.
talking will help even if they don’t think it will.
well actually I enjoy life greatly.I have my own business own realestae and I am financially successful.However I am also a philosopher.I truly realize that death and life are inextricably entwined and one is not good or bad or better than the other.They merely are parts of the cycle .In the east this cycle is called samsara or the wheel.I think about it alot because I realize that most dont realize this and as a result they fear death.Fear is not an empowering emotion.
So what would you call me?
Very depressed.
Depends on how they’re talking about it.. it they talk about how they want to die and how they would do it (like, you know, depressed and all) that’s suicidal. If they just have a general interest in death and dying, it would be morbid. But being morbid isn’t a bad thing. I think in today’s society we fear death because we don’t talk about it or embrace it as a part of life. We’re scared of it and therefore try to ignore it. But talking about it and being interested in it perhaps makes us more prepared and accepting towards it.
“A lot” may not be accurate. If he/she is one of your friends, it may be because he/she is bouncing off his/her thoughts off to you as another human being, and wondering if you also think the same way. Are you the only friend? Usually, an average human’s day goes like, yeah its the morning, I got to pee, then oh I need to feed myself, etc.” It is when your day gets met with failure after failure that your natural instincts to survive the day get depleted. Ergo you talk like this to the first person you see in the evening.
Is there a term for such a person? Id call them “sick and tired” more than anything, “dont know what else to do” and “can you point them out to a better direction”.
A lifestyle change will be good, moving to another area for a better chance to find a job will be better.
There is actually nothing wrong with having an awearness of death and dying, as that can be a motivation to make the best of life while taking every monent seriously. Ergo today is not the begining of the rest of your life, today is the rest of your life!
This attitude is associated with many forms of Buddhist Training and was at a climax in the minds of Ronin & Samurai.
paranoid
hypochondriac
Morbid / Goth
DEPRESSED! Take him to church, one that has life
It depends on how they think about it.
There’s a legitimate philosophy that recommends meditating on death as a way to overcome irrational fear of death and lead to a greater sanity in living one’s life.
This is healthy, but sometimes people think it’s morbid. Unfortunately I forget WHICH religion/philosophy this is.
As some have pointed out, if the person is thinking that they want to die or kill themselves, they are suicidal.
If they continually think they are sick and dieing, they are a hypochondriac.
Depressed !
morons
