What do u think abt solipsism? It's an irrefutable and unprovable argument that u can only be certain of ur own existence, and everything else, including me, may be a figment of ur imagination. Perhaps every existing entity is in a matrix, and perhaps u r the only one who exists, or perhaps u r sleeping. U might argue that u have a "clear sense of reality" and so on, but even in dreams, we think we r not dreaming until we wake up. Or "but everything around me is so logical and orderly, it follows the laws, it's not absurd, etc." But u think the same way in ur dreams before u wake up, and u don't have anything to compare it to. The point is that humans perceive the world through their senses - sight, hearing, touch, smell, and taste - and everything around them has a descriptive set of shape, color, smell, etc. For example, when u hold an apple in ur hand, it feels round, red, and firm, but it's not guaranteed that there's actually an apple beyond these sensations. Because u can't see the world independently, outside of ur perception.
How do u live knowing that there is a possibility that everything around u is an illusion?
Idk if I'll end up hanging myself or going to a mental hospital, because it's unbearable to live with this knowledge for too long. I wish I hadn't read this. I'm not sure if u guys exist, or if my friends and family do, and I'm wondering if u r just bots created by my imagination. I'm asking because I'm curious abt the bots response
