Hello, fish person. Welcome to the forums. I don't know much about fear of death. It's one of the few things I don't actually have any fear of (unless you count fear of suicide, which I understand is a weird fear), but I know all about anxiety. It's a pretty regular state for me. Therapy is good. I hope your therapist talks to you about "radical acceptance." It takes practice, but helps a LOT.
As for the nothingness after death, I find it really comforting. Nothing in life ends with such finality. We're left dealing with memories and the aftermath of virtually everything we do, except when we die. Then, it honestly doesn't matter anymore. You can go and know there's fucking nothing you can do about it. Take the ride.
