Often one cannot tell, but your friends will tell you. The world will end eventually, but perhaps you only mean our present society, which will end sooner. Some of this is the product of sensationalism, but there are many indications our society is not sustainable in it's present form. I think alot of it has to do with the peak oil phenomenon.
I got this habit of playing out certain scenarios in my head, its like puting equations in a calculator eg (1+1=2 )
in my case (Bombs that can kill millions)+(man)=(end of world)
the "peak oil phenomenon" one of the few scenarios that hasnt realy bothered me too much as this is one of the things i consider a spark but an answer can be found to this so it can be avoided.
The kind of things that i havent been able to figure out a way out of the simple fact of the rain forests being destroyed in turn upseting the balance of the earth.
The recent natural desasters only confirm the worst case end of world scenario that has gone through my head is there a way of avoiding this.

You are exhibiting signs of paranoia... are you on drugs? Either accept that the world is not going to end suddenly any time soon and get a life, or go see a shrink.
You sound perfectly sane.
Thats the problem i started thinking like this once i got off the drugs. And i dont think its gonna end suddenly i think its gonna be a slow process. We're all gonna keep reasuring our selves we've got time to stop what ever it is that will finish us off but before we know it its gonna be too late.
Thinking the world is going to end suddenly now thats insane!!!

By the way i havent stopped living my life yet, if i did, then as far as im concerned the world would be over.
And i dont trust shrinks i think they just play with your mind and screw around with things in there they dont fully understand. Already get that with girls, you trying to turn me mad or summin??

Maybe you should get back on the drugs 
Maybe you're right... Bird Flu is spreading around the globe, transmutation to human flu could happen any time and then it may not. Stop worrying, you can't change anything.

The bird virus hasn't been spread from human to human as yet so there's nothing that can happen worldwide until it does. There's already a vaccine for it already so people can be innoculated against it. For every problem there is a solution, it just takes time to find the solution sometimes but those who think positive are the ones trying tp help. Anyone who thinks negatively won't be helping they only add to the problem so if you can try to change your point of view you too will be helping the world survive.
As for your debts, they aren't going anywhere so you'd better take care of them.
I also have this problem, worrying about the world/civilisation ending/collapsing, or war, nukes, invasion, etc. It is a result of the combination of my higher political and social awareness and sensitivity, and my higher general state of anxiety.
I'd like to think both can be changed, although its a question for you as to how much its fucking with your life.
May I ask what drugs you were on?
If you have had bad experiences in the past with shrinks don't let them put you off. There are plenty of good ones out there, their knowledge is founded in science. They have at least 8 years training.

My advice: Perspective.
Life's too short to spend it worrying about when it's all going to end. It will end soon enough. Be in the moment and find joy where you can.
Don't take life too seriously. That you are and some day will not be is part of the cosmic joke. Laugh and be merry with it, as you are part of the joke (as am I).
Just keep it all in perspective man. You'll be fine.
So what I'm saying is when you find yourself in a funk about it, realize what an idiot you're being (I say that to myself if I find myself in that mode), tell yourself you're an idiot, forgive yourself for your indulgance of your worry, laugh about the mental tricks you can play on yourself, rinse and repeat the next time it rolls along. Eventually you'll find yourself in a position that you're not as much of an idiot as you used to be, or you'll discover wonderful new types of idiocy, like habitually posting retarded theories on internet forums (like I do). At least this is what worked for me.

crazy people don't know that they're crazy.
you just seem disturbed... welcome to the club.
i don't mean that sarcastically. we're taught that if the way we feel goes against the present craziness, then we need some kind of pill to make us right again. fuck that. i'll just sit in a room drinking by myself until i feel like it's safe to come out, which i'm sure won't be for a while.

the world will end some day. perhaps not soon. perhaps there is hope that it will be soon. does support for the latter make me insane? or do you agree as well? i'm just tired of people misunderstanding, because it really shouldn't matter. you could be sane to yourself, but insane to the rest of the world, no?

When i say drugs i mean cannabis and i only called it drugs cause someone else did i think of it more as herbal medicine. The reason why i started on this medicine was my mind was always racing away, if a quetion was asked usualy untill i answerd that quetion i wouldnt/couldnt leave it alone. the medicine(cannabis) stoped me thinking too deep about it.
To give you an example of the extent of my problem the current problem im trying to solve is what happens to matter once it hits light speed, my answer so far is that it has a connection with black holes. the reason for that answer is lookin at what happens when an object hits the speed of sound you get a sonic boom a intense colection of sound at one point, and with light usualy if the same thing was to happen you would get a flash(wait this is all new to me now) what happen when an object moves away from its own imiage??????
Man wheres ma bag of weed???
