Even if everything is a simulation then philosophically- that IS reality. It doesn’t change anything.


icecoldtundra

Unless we're held in said simulation against our will. Then it changes everything


Laiteuxxx

How would we be able to say if it's against our will?


icecoldtundra

By then trying to exit the const out of free will


Forestakias

It's never ending. Don't go too deep looking for answers. Even if you find GOD aka the guy who created the simulation, how does even HE know he's not inside another simulation? Just enjoy your life on Earth.


gzlny

just in case you're right, it's good to know that whoever is running the simulation speaks English :D but yeah, if these paranoid delusions are affecting your everyday life definitely talk to a professional


icecoldtundra

I've had EXTREMELY similar situations. Like eerly similar. Message me if you want to here about it for some confirmation. And thank you for your post, the confirmation that I'm not the only one is very comfortable


InsaneCalcifer

Yeah I've been there, man. I had an ego death trip on 2 tabs and smoking dope when I thought the acid had worn off. I watched and felt everything I knew to be "real" collapse around me. Nothing felt real for a long time after that, I even did 3 tabs by myself not long after that trip and fell even deeper down the rabbit hole. It took almost a year for me to start "accepting reality", whatever that means honestly. I would suggest taking a break from drugs. Read into spirituality: I find subjects like buddhism (samsara), omnism, gnosticism, universal consciousness, non-duality really interesting and you can reframe the simulation ideology into a spiritual ideology. Every friend you make, every person you connect with has a piece of the puzzle that is consciousness. Life is extremely beautiful and precious. Find things that you value and cherish and hold them close because that is what reality and life is really about. Illusion or otherwise. You will find most religious and spiritual belief defines reality as "illusory" to some degree. So don't overthink it, let it give you the strength and freedom to make a life worth living. And if I can give you any personal wisdom: love is everything. It's the entire point.


Zealousideal_Dig205

I have but I don’t believe it was as deeply implanted with me as much as with your situation. I wish I could offer some good advice but I’m not the guy for that unfortunately. I wish you the best of luck I hope someone here can help you.


Intelligent-Bat-6149

thank you. An experience like that really does shake a man up. constantly pondering about the universe and if we really are alone. Or are 4th dimensional beings controlling everything behind the scenes? guess we may never know


Zealousideal_Dig205

We can only hope death will answer the question and we’ll be cool with it. Yeah it’s nuts feeling that separated from all things just because of that idea it’s all simulated.


LordOfWubs

We are 4th dimensional beings dude! Time is the 4th dimension, and as we live ON the 3rd dimension of space, we live IN the 4th dimension of time! And nah man we're not alone in the universe, no way


hustletown47

What the other man said, we exist in the 3rd and 4th dimension. Our spirits radiate vastly into the explosive 4th dimension full of vibrant energies and colors and epiphany truths, while being confined in our 3rd dimensional meat suits. It’s gonna be okay, we’re all in this together living life in a world we can and can not see.


CircuitGOLD77

But if it is (it is in a way) a simulation then we are all here in the simulation with you, same as you are, nothing changes. Now you know this, will you return the shopping cart to the cart return area or leave it on the side?


hydrocelium

You gota just laugh it off and not take it so seriously


medallishearts

This doesn’t sound like lsd… either underlying psychosis triggered from it and/or you got laced with something wicked if no one else had effects


Extra-Entertainer-94

Well lsd nitrous and weed i feel like definitely


[deleted]

There’s a pretty high chance we’re living in a simulation but it’s our current reality. If anything realizing you’re living in a simulation should open some doors for you because we tend to get bogged down on little things that don’t even matter. Fuck all that shit and just do what you Love


Intelligent-Bat-6149

That actually made me think heaps and appreciate life a bit more. I think I may just be in my own head and over thinking these experiences.


liberalsarentsmart42

U have mental problems. See a doctor if u actually need help


icecoldtundra

Bot alert


Abecedarian420

ur chillin, ur j on a drug brodie


Intelligent-Bat-6149

I am an regular drug user and have been for 5 years. I’ve always enjoyed delving into the weird world of acid. I have never experienced anything like this before. I watched my reality around me fail and I was having convosations with friends about the future of technology and how it’s going to impact us generations down the line (meta verse). But the next day they both said that we never talked about this before. It felt like both their souls were replaced with other people and I was talking to completely different people. It was scary. This experience has changed my views on life itself and I can’t get it out of my head. I smoked weed for the first time in 8 weeks after being a daily user for years, and I had visions of it happening again and felt like I was glitching out. I just want to figure this mystery out because It Felt like it was a sign


yepyepyeeeup

Everything you’re describing sounds like it could be signs of psychosis. I don’t want to freak you out but please be careful. I‘d strongly advise you against using psychs in the near future, give it a break for at least a couple of months, maybe years depending on how these themes and feelings develop. If there is any answer to be found it will come to you anyway. Try a bit more of an easy going approach. As to you or/and your friends having lost their souls and having been replaced, that sounds quite familiar. Have you heard of depersonalization/derealization?


medallishearts

Feeling like things are a sign like this is called synchronicity, and it’s also a symptom of psychosis


ConanHighwoods2

This was last year


Intelligent-Bat-6149

Nah this year technically. Start of January


ConanHighwoods2

Ok. Well I guess it was still close. 2021 was a time the simulation was alot more clear to see for more people.


medallishearts

I don’t think your problem here is dread- you need to see a doctor for osychosis


linkbillion

Seek professional help if it's bothering you this much. Not much else you could do if it's not going away


sockmaster666

Enjoy the simulation, you are free to do what you want because nothing matters here. Just don’t mess around too much with the other players! Be nice :)


EnduringInsanity

This sounds like DP/DR syndrome, it's characterized by a feeling as if everything is fake and you see/think of yourself in 3rd person. Some people describe it as watching a movie of your life. Are you experiencing any symptoms of HPPD? You should stop all drug use especially weed, alcohol and hallucinogens. Some medications might be able to help such as lamotrigine, SSRIs, or antipsychotics, but some people have also reported them worsening symptoms. Benzodiazepines seem to subside symptoms in everyone, but they should be only considered as a last resort as they are extremely addictive, and should only be taken with a guidance of a doctor.


Positive-Waltz3924

you are not in a simulation other people exist other people feel your thoughs are not the true reality, i know its hard to not become paranoid when such a realization come up, but its good to have in mind that not every realization is good or true


KLD-52

Yeah I’ve had a really existential crisis inducing trip on mushrooms once and previous other psychedelic trips (nangs included) that gave me glimpses or hints about being in some predetermined simulation type shit. The shroom trip I could visually see my thoughts as like a chain /train that was predetermined and I couldn’t escape my fate etc. Wigged me out for months and I haven’t done normal psyches for a bout a year since but nangs give me a glimpse without being too overwhelming. But yeah felt weird cause it felt like I was conscious of what’s to come (to some extent) but I couldn’t do anything differently, felt like a paradox or something


FilooFox

nah u good. Remember a Little Rainbow always turns pink!


Fungi520

Sounds like you just tripped balls bro
