When one is deeply involved in the ''I'' thought it sounds very strange to be free of it. How can you even carry on a conversation without the use of ''I, me, my or mine'' words.
You were only pretending to have an identity anyways, so what can be so fearful about seeing though it, moving beyond it, or, and this is what really happens, realizing it never was anything other than a rather silly habit fed by memories that don't even belong to a you? If you can realize that your memories and experiences are all the ''property'' of awareness, you will be free of ''you''. Look and see.
You can still function fully, do what needs doing, etc., but there is a strange, rather pleasant void that used to be you oh-so-highly-valued ''you''. This can come suddenly or gently and slowly. Perhaps because mine was slow it just didn't seem like a big deal. No me is no loss. What was left was a tangible feeling of openness and possibility. But that was quite a while ago and if I were to look for a me, well... the just doesn't compute.
Look and see if you can find anything that actually belongs to a ''you'', if you can find something then ask ... ''is that true''. If you still think it's true then turn awareness to inquire ''who/what is this I?".
Try making up a sense of you and then releasing it. Do it again and again... and,
Let me know your experiences.
