Honestly, I'm quite troubled, even on a psychological level, by the doctrine of Solipsism. It's the ONLY philosophical system or enterprise that withstands all refutations and objections, and is, for all intents and purposes, irrefutable.
But being a true believer in Solipsism, or even considering it a real possibility, is potentially life-threatening. Why should we eat, drink, sleep, have sex, and any other things if they (can) possibly NOT exist, and all of this world be a by-product of our minds?
Why should we bother or care about anything at all in the face of Solipsism?
