Realistically, your chances of being killed or even just sickened by radiation are slim. It is theoretically possible, but that is all. Large scale nuclear war is very unlikely now. The more likely threats are nuclear power plant disasters or single nuclear device detonations by terrorists or rogue states. Unless you live near a nuclear power plant or near a potential terrorist target you shouldn't have anxiety about it.

It is however OK to oppose nuclear weapons and power. I agree both are too dangerous and should be eliminated/prohibited worldwide.

No more coffee for you.

Seriously...relax. Why worry about what you can't change?

How I learned to live with the bomb and stop worrying.

It sounds suspiciously like you are ready to commit suicide out of fear of dying.

A much more likely source of radiation poisoning is simply the sun. Sun poisoning is mild radiation poisoning but people don't usually die from it.

You are correct. Flying regularly is an especially dangerous activity as far as radiation is concerned.

Awwwwww, don't worry, I haven't heard of any of that happening. But I know how you feel, you hear of all these things going on in the world and it scares you to death. I get easily worried and scared of all these things too. I freaked out at the swine flu, nuclear bombs, riots, winter blackouts....you name it I have been terrified of it, and there's people around me making it sound so trivial when it gets brought up in a conversation. Perhaps people think it won't happen to them.

Often if I think too deeply about nuclear bombs, I start imagining horrible firey stuff coming at me from a distance all of a sudden, and I have to close my eyes and go ''OK it's not gonna happen, it's not gonna happen''. I also worry because I can't see myself living beyond 30. Mind you, I couldn't see myself living beyond 17, and now I'm 23.

It really, really sucks. I want to die a natural, quick death of old age. I don't want to die early, by sizzling from a nuclear bomb or being poisoned, all because some countries in this world can't get on.

With all the s**t going on in the world, nuclear winter is a far out option.

Despite pandering, the words major nuclear powers know that nuclear war will be as costly for them as for their opponent.

radiation is not the real danger, the real danger is ingesting radioactive partials because if it get stuck in your body it will be a constant source of radiation

That is a very valid point. Had not considered that. Unless it was really small it would probably just pass through if ingested. But if it was small enough it could get lodged in the folds of the large intestine... Radioactive diverticulitis... very interesting idea...
