Your feelings can not be wrong or invalid, they are your feelings. These feelings arise from a perspective of yourself as a limited separate entity, and the repercussions of projecting this perspective on to your experiences are not pleasant feeling - because it is not true. Not true is not the same as invalid or wrong.
It is not a coincidence that a person who entertains suicide, is also convinced they are a separate entity, and therefore questions the afterlife.
There is not a separate soul any more than there is “this life”, and in some other place or time, is “afterlife”. Though it certain appears to be, there is not. The only point of experience is happiness, and true happiness is found in self discovery - and you are in the right place & community for that adventure.
Consider deeply breathing from your stomach while looking into the feelings - as a message to be heard. Analogously, think of an email which informs you of some very, very pleasant news - but you can’t avoid the email, or you will never ‘read’ it.
“There is nothing to fear, but fear itself”...look directly into it (the message), and fear reveals it’s true nature.
