Guido,
​
We had a brief conversation in the chat room. You are encountering solipsism. The wikipedia entry is a good start, but it is an irrefutable philosophical device of little practical value.
​
You may encounter it as an end game in arguments that get all existential.
​
It's a good thing to explore and you are not psychotic, although I might be saying this because your subconscious made me....
