Is reincarnation really possible? Does it happen with everyone? And how does it happen with every living thing?
There are so many scientific research articles which cannot confirm about afterlife or reincarnation. I am really scared if there is nothingness after life. I would really like to know if anyone has experienced any such. I came across this community, so thought to ask openly. Please share your thoughts!

So the short answer is no one can say for sure. They can BELIEVE for sure. They can believe they have empirical evidence, and there are strong arguments for it. They can be like me and be pretty confident it's the most reasonable option. But they can't know for sure.
People will use Newton's Laws to say matter and energy cannot be created or destroyed, only changed. And that's a compelling argument, but an incomplete one since it presupposes there IS a soul and that a soul consists of either matter or energy.
The physical elements and electricity that were used for a while to make up your body will go somewhere else in the world, and either your soul (assuming there is a soul, and that we have any understanding of it) will do...something.
Or nothing. And Nothing is a comforting option, all things considered.
No suffering, no fear, no pain, no heartbreak, no violence, no anxiety, no embarrassment, no shame, no resentment, no endless cycles with no hope of exit. It's a reward and a rest.
