If you ever had a lucid dream, you know how "real" it can be.
In your lucid dream you know that you are the only real person, no matter what the other characters in your dream say.

I think that most people who have lucid dreams have no problems with accepting the subjective reality concept.
I had this problem after coming out of a salvia trip(not sure if I am out or not =/) Once I came out I was sure I was still tripping, still in a dream...but maybe I was ALWAYS still in a dream. Maybe that is all reality is, a dream within a dream within a dream...infinity. My family, friends all of them trying to convince me they are real and they lead lives and this isn't a dream... But of course this is what is going to be told to me because my ego doesn't want me to wake up. Well my ego is a mofo and he doesn't want me to wake up(if I wake up he's gone I think). So THIS dream has seeming continuity. Rules and limits...but I see that every moment of everyday is recycling. I see synchronicities everyday(now that I look for them) things I think of or see or hear I will see in friends, on tv, on the radio...everything connects up to create whatever I see at whatever moment...I am in some kind of loop but there is the illusion that it isn't a loop cuz things "change" but they don't REALLY change, it is all the same ************. Another thing that freaks me out is it seems everytime I have an experience and come up with some kind of weird theory I come online and theres the theory...someone else already came up with it...or did they...or did it appear once I thought it? This shits very hard to put into words but what does it matter...just sitting here talking to myself anyways.
