I don’t know how to do it. I am so terrified of dying that I haven’t been able to sleep well for a very long time. Everything I do seems shallow and hollow - so how does everyone just keep on moving forward, keep setting goals, keep making progress?

    A habit I learned from Reddit is to keep a gratitude journal. One of my daily tasks is to update it with one thing from that day that I’m grateful for. It can be a big thing; it can be a very small thing like having a tasty muffin that morning. I update it even if my day was miserable and I struggle to think of something.

    I’ve become a lot more mindful of things I’m grateful for (so I can update the journal). When I’m grateful, I worry less about sad things like death.
