  • I would guess the experience to be very personal.
  • Dont know and dont want to know.
  • I believe it would be terrifying to be all alone in the world to begin with..so alone that no one would be there to hold your hand and say "I love you"..I would not wish that on my worst enemy, if I had one. One cannot know what it is like, until one is in that situation..and I hope none of us ever is.
  • It's quiet and black and peaceful. At least that's just before you finally die.
  • I am pretty sure it is scary and lonely.

  • Probably full of regrets.
  • 1) I would make a difference between: 1. spending the end of your life alone 2. spending the time when you are dying alone (agony) 3. be alone in the moment of death What is it like? 1. Some people enjoy being alone, at least at times. But it is certainly unfortunate to have to live alone at the end of your life. 2. I would also appreciate having some king of company in such a situation, I am sure this could help. 3. In the moment of death, everyone has to go through this door alone, I think. 2) "Having children won't save you from a lonely old age." "Ample quantities of people -- some their own age and some as young or younger than their children -- seek out their company simply for the pleasure of it. These are people who know a lot, have done a lot and seen a lot, and that enriches every minute spent with them. But I've also known miserable, resentful, bored and lonely senior citizens and can remember how much scarier getting old seemed back when that was the only kind of elderly person I knew."

Sometimes we suffer because of a false belief about ourselves: "If I am alone, then something must be wrong with me. Perhaps I am unlovable." This feeling may be a symptom of insufficient self love." "And yet, if we can learn to be truly intimate with ourselves, then we are never alone. This sort of intimacy, however, is not always easy to come by. It may take facing the wounded, deficient parts of ourselves, as well as the wonderful, abundant parts." Source: http://www.uoregon.edu/~counsel/loneliness.htm
