If so, why?

    No, I live in the same reality as everyone else but I feel like my grasp of it is generally more accurate than that of an average person, what ever that means. I see people (myself included) as rather predictable biological “robots” that are pushed around by their primitive wants and emotions while pretending to have agency over all the good things happening to them and blaming the world for all the rest. I don’t beliefe in free will in the sense that most people think about it. As in “you could have done otherwise”. It’s not just a philosophical concept I like but something I truly believe in and live by. There’s no going back once you take that pill. You can’t help but see the world and people differently after that and I mean it in a good way.
