If you’ll allow me to psychoanalyze, I held a similar opinion when I was really struggling with my view of the world. I was coming out of christianity and figuring out what was real and what wasn’t. But to boil things down, I was struggling to look at the world naked. How could I organize “the virtual” or the “make-believe” when I hadn’t fully categorized the “real,” the here and now?

If you read this, and you do find yourself in a similar situation: give it time. Look at the worst and strangest parts of the world and give your brain time to digest them. Once you’re finally comfortable in the world, or finally have a kind of comfort redefined, then come back to fantasy. It’s just as important as anything real.
