I’ve heard of people with near death experiences having these calm, soothing experiences. It’s lovely that our brains do this for us.
I know there’s a natural selection, those with the best characteristics continued, and those who didn’t have the qualities to survive would pass away. But everyone dies in the end. What made it so that all brains release those chemicals to ease our last moments?

Not a biologist but….
Fight or flight is triggered for things that risk killing us (typically). There is no evolutionary reason that would change because… the moment it occurs, in this instance, you die. You aren’t gaining an evolutionary advantage by feeling anything specifically when you die.
