Trump being re-elected

Growing old alone. I have been single half of my adult life, and having someone to share ideas, experiences, and feelings with is the best.

America turning into the Republic of Gilead.

I refuse to live with fear. When a problem arises I go to war to solve it - and that includes health issues, money. Sometimes other people can be a snag, but I recognize that we must share the world with all sorts of people who live in different "worlds." I do not fear death as I approach that age. If I were to fear anything it would be the ignorance of the main stream propagated by corporate greed. In addition, I do fear for new generations that will suffer because of it due to climate change and all that will bring.

Right now, it's watching my mother deteriorate, lack of money, poor health, and being alone. Kind of all overwhelming me at the moment.

I'm not afraid of death, no one can avoid that. I am afraid of suffering or prolonged illness. I'm afraid of an unfunded retirement thanks to the current administration. I'm really afraid of not being able to do what I want when I want and that would cause me to be bored out of my gourd. I'm never bored because I always have a long list of stuff to do, if I can't do them it would be sad.

I don't want a lingering death. Death itself is fine. I've had friends pass with ALS, emphysema, and cancer. I've seen others struggle with crippling depression. It scares me.

That no one will respond to my post…

The propagation and growth of the cruel, totalitarian, oppressive, theocratic political ideology based on the teachings and example of "the prophet". It is not exclusively the extremism, but is the mainstream ideology, which is the threat.

I'm starting life over again and I'm finding it hard even with a degree in cybersecurity to get a job at 57, cancer survivor, and twin boys that are terminally ill. I have never been this broke in my life, as a matter of fact I've always been fairly well-off. So I guess I really don't like the prospect of me being broke!

Poor health.... I've had a slipped disc and I know what it's like to NOT be able to pick you own underwear up off the ground. To sneeze and have every part of your body hurt. To turn the wrong way and pinch a nerve that sends so much pain down your body but you can't move because it only makes it worse. Everything else, is manageable

Gotta care about life to fear anything

I can't choose one, but muslim extremists aren't on MY list lol. christian extremists are, but that's covered by rightwing nuts. i think i am afraid of getting sick with no one to take care of me, while my guy with alzheimer's has no one to take care of him once he loses me.

mine is very specific. My daughter is grown, and will be traveling for work. So, when she is away, I live alone with my disabled son, who is non-verbal.

So - my greatest fear... having something catestrophic happen to me; an injury, a heart attack, or just death... and my son sits alone in this house with his dead father for days, unable to contact or help, or do anything be be afraid.

The second part of that fear is for whomever (likely my daughter) that finds the scene.

Very specific, sure. Also too likely.

Lack of money. Being alone and unable to afford the basics.

stroke! I've seen it happen to too many friends and it's horrible! Everything else is secondary.

I fear that the remainder of my life (40-50 more years, give or take) I will be unloved.

God & country

Always thought that growing old was going to be a peaceful time to ponder things, think about stuff and write memories..... I was completely clueless about pain, sickness, not having energy to do anything and at times to get a bit sad and depressed because things are not the way I thought they would be. At the end, beats the alternative anyway....

My children dying before me.

Being lonely. I was lonely in my last marriage.

Being chased by a dozen clowns. (being eaten by a shark is a close second)

That GRRM will die before he finishes writing A Song of Ice and Fire

My worst fear is still death, but a right wing dystopia is quickly catching up to it.

Never finding love again.
