Metaphysical Solipsism - Struggling

[legend4lyf]

I look at people and constantly questioning their existence, their mind, their experiences, their feelings, everything... I find it hard to listen to what they say, and respond coherently. My mind is somewhere else asking if they even exist, psychologically.

But then I look at myself and realize I'm not any different to them. I was born just like everyone else because two people had sex (my parents) and was once a child who didn't know anything. How could I be making all of this up?
But then, it's still not enough because my mind asks, how do I know for sure that I was born and delivered from another person's body? What if that never happened? Etc.

Yeah, it's driving me nuts. I would appreciate the help guys. I'm just not in a very good place right. Everything is turned to shit. And I don't have the drive to do anything anymore. Bedridden, wondering whether anyone exists outside my room's door.

Your mind is trying to find certainty where there isn’t any and that’s okay. But just because you can question something doesn’t mean it reflects reality. You don’t have to solve the mystery of existence to feel grounded again

You exist and you’re not alone, things can get better. Please hang in there
