The concept of Subjective reality made me almost feel mad, mental, as it's the first symptoms of schizophrenic patient's beliefs.

Then I made a choice:

I knew you was going to expose subjective reality as a joke, you didn't, this proves I'm not the only concious person.

We are all concious, we are ALL the one, we are all connected to conciousness and we all got a part of conciousness in us.

Keep in mind that subjective reality is just one of many perspectives, a lens through which you view what exists. No lens is truth in itself. It is merely another way of looking at what is.

Yeah, so your not saying that that's how it really is.
That you believe your the ultimate God?
It's just a good way too look at the world to feed you Ego goals?

He's better than us. He doesn't believes that he is the ultimate God.

My mom wants to lock me up in the looney bin because I believe in Subjective Reality, I need to get out of it now.
I identify myself with what I see, reality, not myself anymore.
I'm going crazy, someone prove to me why I am not God and why you all are real PLEAES

It's pretty simple to prove if you want to.

I believe I am real. Do you believe I'm real?

If you don't, why does your subconscious create a "me" that believes I'm real?
If you do, perhaps it's your belief that makes me real. But it's simpler to think I'd be real anyway. Plenty of examples around that can illustrate this point. You mom believes she's real.

I prefer to see it as "there are subjective aspects of reality." These can be changed. What's your monthly income? It's a matter of perspective, depending how hard you work, what you invest in, and how lucky you are in a given month. Things like that are a healthy application of the SR aspect. Acting like a loony because people supposedly aren't real is not.

Haris, saying someone is better than you is simply putting YOURSELF down. No man is inherently better than you, or me, or anyone. Circumstance is the only thing that changes between people. Steve's circumstance may be different, but he was born with a brain JUST THE SAME as everyone else.

I'm not sure if I know how to prove that, but here are some things that have helped me deal with the Depersonalization anxiety that sometimes results from practicing meditation/subjective reality/intention manifestation:

• Try diaphragmatic breathing
• Do some fun activity that you enjoyed in the past

Yeah I got derealized and depersonaliation, no doubt.
It all started before Subjective reality, but I got out of it, then reading about subjective reality pushed me back in...
It's so sad, I feel like I can't get out cause I no longer remember what non-dr/dp feels or looks like.
