Why do our brains release these ‘chemicals’ that make us not afraid in our last moments?

940 views

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?

More interesting question is why we evolved a death experience (near death experience) when it serves no evolutionary purpose?
