A friend of mine had problem with being afraid all the time about dieing, and sometimes had panic crisis with no reason.

He found a way to manage by doing extreme-sport, to make the rest of the day "softer".

A fashion sport these days is slackline/highline :

I suggest you dive deep into your fear of death.

''The biggest thing you should fear in your life... Is that you waste your life.'' - Leo

I had this problem a long time ago, Delayed gratification is one of the most important things you should develop I've recently come to realize, delaying gratification creates new flavors of emotion, not only that but building momentum is incredibly empowering. But I got a better answer to your question. Look at your life right now, chances are you've been chasing instant gratification your whole life, look what that's gotten you, be very honest about it. Look at all the things you've chased after for instant gratification. Are you happy yet? Keep doing what's you've always done and you'll come up to the end of your life and say..."wtf was I doing?" This life is so fucking amazing, as Leo says It's like magic that we are here, and its so under appreciated because people are squandering it away with their petty problems and fears, don't waste your life. Don't let your "fear" keep you stuck. Because your fear of death is the ONLY thing that keeps you there, and the ego LOVES to know that its safe and sound. But in the end? That game is lost.

Fear is something that is made with your thoughts. Do you fear of the unknown facts about the after life, which then makes you want to live because you dont want to face it. or its the fear that you'll miss everything you have in this life and reputation etc. what you facing right now in temporary.
