Good to hear you finally chiming in on death anxiety.
--------------------
“What is the ideal for mental health, then? A lived, compelling illusion that does not lie about life, death, and reality; one honest enough to follow its own commandments: I mean, not to kill, not to take the lives of others to justify itself.”
― Ernest Becker
"Beneath the civilized veneer, man remains the supreme predator. Cursed with what he believes is understanding, his true soul blossoms godlike in the heart of the nuclear inferno."

The problem is finding a way to stop musing on it.
And I'm not too keen on the whole "being-toward-death" idea.

The obstacle is the path.

Simply stop musing on it.. And you will have stopped!
Your problem seem to be that you need to have one...
