CMS 315M Lecture 22: Death & Dying
Document Summary
Suffering you don"t want to suffer physically/emotionally. Humiliation were supposed to be strong and were not strong. Extinction some say reason religion exists - fear of extinction drives humanity. Loss of loved ones i won"t see my parents anymore/i won"t see my friends anymore . Subterfuge deny it, instead of saying he died we say he passed away we hide the word death. Denial deny it"s going to happen to us, it"s def gonna happen to others, but maybe just maybe not to us. Death defying some people love taking risks - the only time i feel alive is when i"m risking my life . Denial it"s not happening, it"s not going to happen to me , you don"t accept you have lost someone or you are dying you say the diagnosis is wrong . Anger you"re angry at everything, including things that you did in the past.
