Is it normal to worry that i don't exist?

Sometimes I worry that none of this is real and no-one actually exists, and what if there is one right religion and everyone else is mistaken? and what is 'good'. WHY. IIN?

    No need to worry, but you really don't exist. This what we call reality is all perception

    But you existed to think of this post. "You thought therefore you existed."

    Lol my boyfriend says stuff like this everyday.. He's always says, "I just can't wrap my head around the fact that people exist when I'm not interacting with them in some way... That there are people all over the world living their lives which don't affect me at all.." He's a little self centered ^-^ But yes, I believe this is a common thing to ponder.

    I've thought about that before. It doesn't bother me that things get infinitely smaller or infinitely larger though. We are what we are; Human sized, and the fact that we only exist on one order of magnitude doesn't decrease our abstract worth.

    It's normal to wonder and worry a bit, but you sound like you're wondering and worrying a lot, in which case you need to go get counselling.

    Very interesting. Truth is we don't know. Whether we exist or not is irrelevant. Live life to the fullest.

    What if there was no right religion, and everyone was mistaken (including those with no religion)?
    What if we actually exist, but no one is real?

    Wierd... I'm not religious. But very spiritual... I couldn't worship a god that turned away good heart, just cause they "don't believe".

    Sometimes though, I feel like I'm not normal. Like no one can relate with me really. Like no one sees what I see or believes what I believe exactly.

    I wonder the same, thoughts are so amazing. Are eyes too, and what we see..and how everyone sees it in a different way. This world is so surreal sometimes

    it never ceases to amaze me how we're all just clusters of smaller than microscopic atoms. To think we're just electrons going around nucleus, who've somehow become living, self aware, able to process thought, adapt to surroundings, have emotion, speak, have memory, gain knowledge and so much more, and actually are able to grasp the very foundation of what we really are. At times I feel we're both real, and yet somehow fake, like we're so complex but yet so uterlly simple.

    as humans were facinated by the unknown. these sort of questions just cant be answered and it drives us crazy from time to time (which is why people turn to religion in the first place) the only thing you can do is put the ?s aside and not stress over it. the only thing we can do is to be the best person we can be and live life. what will be shall be. if there is a god i doubt he or she would turn away a person with a good heart.
