What would you do?

if you knew if you were going to die in like 2-3 years. Would you be like fu.ck it im dead anyway, or would you be like i'm gonna live these few years of my life to the full.

Answer:
Yes, I would want to be told. Two or three years is sufficient time to deal with the situation and eventually come to the realization that acceptance is the key.

I was presented with this dilemma at a young age, and didn't handle it very well. I survived, but not without some psychological stress.

I initially lamented the things I hadn't done. Then, I decided that I would try to enjoy everything that was humanly possible during the time I had left.

After several months of almost non-stop activity, I finally came to the realization that I had enjoyed a full and enriching life, and that I now had the opportunity to accept my current status.

I then concentrated on enjoying my regular day to day life again. I decided that I didn't need to climb any more mountains. I just chose to enjoy every moment as it passed and not worry about what I missed in the past or would miss in the future. The present became all that ever was and all that ever will be.

That calamity passed, but I'm now completely accepting of my eventual demise.
I usually say that I'd like someone to tell me, but then the problem is that might prevent you from enjoying what time you have left, whereas if someone didn't tell you, you'd carry on with life as normal and wouldn't be worrying about it, so it's difficult really.
