*All professors suffer death anxiety

*Afraid of painful death (91%)


*Thinking of death of loved ones (81%)

*Afraid of body deterioration that accompany slow death (72%)

*Worried about dying very painfully (69%)

* Feeling that death is every where (66%)

*Terrified of seeing a dead body (66%)

*Obsession of getting killed any minute (66%)

*Thinking of my personal death (53%)

* Prefer not to attend a dying friend (53%)

*Would avoid death no matter whatever it takes (50%)

* Think of death directly before going to bed (47%)

*Death is better than a painful life (38%)

*Feel closer to death than to life (31%)
