I do understand what you tried to offer here. The problem, as I mentioned, is that if it was plausible and probable (and it isn't that much) like, say, the simulation theory it still wouldn't really affect people. We don't know what we'd be missing or why is it even a bad thing. I mean why would it matter if I don't really experience reality if I'm experiencing something identical?

You could stir thought and make people question themselves with something a bit more plausible. For that you should constantly try to further your knowledge about science and philosophy and their workings.

I'm not sure if I'm the best for a suggestion, but why don't you try to write something about the way our mind changes reality? You don't have to exaggerate it too much, it's already known that our minds changes our perception in certain ways for certain reasons. Many people still don't know that and, done well, could effectively convey horror.
