I am seeing myself and several living family members listed as deceased. How can I fix that?

I've asked The user to mark my grandmother as living when I stumbled upon a duplicate, but she hasn't changed the information and then recently I found many more names including myself that are listed as deceased.

Brianna,

This article from the Help Center should help you.

https://www.familysearch.org/help/helpcenter/article/how-do-i-change-the-status-from-deceased-to-living-in-family-tree

It explains the importance of privacy for living individuals, and the process of changing a record marked deceased to living.

Best wishes as you correct these records in Family Tree.

FYI

Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.

I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

Unfortunately, it happens ...

Short Answer: "Edit" the "Death" for each individual/person concerned, "Changing" the 'Status' to "Living".

IF, you "Edit" the "Death" for each individual/person concerned, "Changing" the 'Status' to "Living", adding a "Reason Statement"; being, 'Reason This Information Is Correct'; THEN, that "Creates" a REPORT directly to 'FamilySearch'; whereby, 'FamilySearch' will investigate; and, if 'FamilySearch' agrees with you, the 'Status' of the individuals/person WILL be "Changed" from "Deceased" to "Living"; thereby, the individuals/persons will be TRANSFERRED to the "Private Spaces" of the User/patron who "Created" them; and, they will NO LONGER be "Public".

Here is a "Knowledge Article" in 'FamilySearch':
