Well, nothing I say would matter anyway, since I'm a creation of your mind :P
I do consider solipsistic ideas now and then, but no, I do not feel the same way. Of course everything is in our mind. There isn't really any solid truth that we can experience - just interpretations. I feel too utterly insignificant to believe in solipsism, as I feel that there must be more that the mind. Humans are just nothings really. I don't know...if I went all solipstic, I would in all likeliness end up in a padded cell. No joke. How do you manage??
So, you CAN say that everything you experience comes from your mind, but it's not very practical to go down that road. If someone punches you for example, it's not so easy to wish away.
Nevermind. You're normal alright. Lot of people think about these things and some take it up as a belief system of sorts as you do. Just don't kill anyone please.
nothing exists outside of my mind?
