So this existential crisis began when I first started to get scared of eternal oblivion after death/no afterlife, but I got over it and after finding out about forced reincarnation I am desperately wishing for it to be true, then it evolved into a fear of forced reincarnation, where I get reincarnated in an terrible life without my control, I think it’s the most likely scenario to happen after you die, because assuming the universe and existence is infinite, there’s a chance you are born again without your control, and those past life memories by young children and this fear is costing me months of my life, PLEASE tell me reincarnation isn’t real and please dont tell me you won’t remember anything it won’t help at all

Let me explain this first for these past months I’ve been having a non stop anxiety about what happens after death, first it was about eternal oblivion, i got over that, then it was about forced reincarnation, about me reincarnating without my consent, now it’s about the eternal recurrence theory, where after i die i repeat my whole life forever and ever and i really dont want eternal recurrence to be true and this anxiety has been taking me months of my life i can’t go a single moment without this anxiety i want to rest forever after i die
when you guys say the universe is under no obligations to make sense to us you don’t seem to be bothered about it, how do you guys handle it?
I would really really like to know why existence exists at all
For me personally I don’t agree with many worlds interpretation because I find it absurd that a new alternate timeline where I put clothes B instead of A exists
Are we really going to be fine in the future?
I am extremely worried by our current problems, developed countries facing a demographic collapses, climate change getting worse and worse, extreme political instability/polarization, will we grow out of this fine? Are we living in a transition period or very dark times are ahead?
