Do you know someone that something like that happened to or seen a film with a similar plot? Sometimes, if you hear/ read this things they slip into your subconsciuous without you noticing.
For a while, I had trouble sleeping as I thought I might die in my sleep. I knew it was irrational and did some deep breathing through it but it didn't disappear. One day someone mentioned someone elderly who had died in the night. I remembered a friend of mine had happened to mention working in an old peoples home and she didn't like to be the only one there at night in case someone died in their sleep as had happened a few times. I realised this is where my fear had come from and once I realised, it stopped happening.
