Is it normal to think reality does not exist?

Can reality exist without me existing? If I am alive, I am the only one who is existing; if I am not born yet, nothing exists, the same happens when I am dead. Is being dead part of the reality? Is reality existing when my body/consciousness isn´t?

    I feel like its just thinkimg too much. To me philosophy is stating common sensible things in a smart way. Yes you are alive.

    You picked this site to ask the fundamental philosophical questions of life? Do you also want an explanation of the Theory of Relativity? Get real.

      No. They are looking for "Davis's Law of Liquid Volume Displacement."

      "You (as in yourself) cannot drink a bar dry"

      Named after a shipmate from my US Navy years with the last name "Davis."

      Someone wrote it in the front or back of the logbook (where other unofficial things got written). I and many others quickly memorized it because it fit so well.

      Davis sure tried to disprove it many times...

    Actually this is a philosophical theory believe it or not.

    Of course it will still exist when you're not existing. Everyone else's reality will continue.

    So reality isn’t real, right, ok.

    Reality exists independently of you, but when you are dead or unborn you are no longer a part of it and no longer notice anything.

    It sounds like you're just describing solipsism. Don't dive too deep in to it, people ruin their lives over that.
