How to distract myself?

I'd just like to mention first that I am not a depressed person, I'm actually really cheerful. But when I'm alone with my thoughts, I tend to think about depressing things like dying and what comes after, and it freaks the hell out of me.And once I start to think about it, it's really hard to get it out of my head. I hate to think about that kind of stuff because it upsets me and I'd like to be the type of person to just live in the moment and stop worrying.

So my question is , how can I prevent myself from thinking about that? Or suggestions on how to get myself to stop thinking about it.

And I know you could say 'Just don't think about it' but that's easier said than done, because if I tell myself not to think about it, it makes me think about it... :/

  • Think about something u really like instead of anything bad and think wut u will do with that something you like. Sorta like If u like having a goldfish think about wut you r gonna do with the goldfish and taking care of it! :3

  • ME TOO!!!! Ha ha ha.... Anyway let's get serious.-_-. The thing you need to learn is that "dying" is not bad at all. And what comes after it is not bad either. You see when you die, you just well.... die. You know when you sleep and you have no dreams? That is EXACTLY how it's going to be when you are dead in you grave or whatever. If you want to get rid of this habit of yours then i think you have to...oh yeah, I suggest then that you think about some way to make it kinda be funny or whatever... just not scary. I know this sounds like something a sick person would say but it really works for me when I think of really scary things. (ex.vampires...TWILIGHT, they are not scary!) Anyway,if that does not work then I think that you should WRITE it down. Like in a diary or journal. This also works for me when I think about sad or depressing things. So I hope these thing help you! :-3 :-)
