Questions one ought not ask...

So, what proof do we have that these so-called “memories” are truly ours and not some wild fantasy? What proof do we have that they’re real? I know they feel real, familiar, right even when they’re terribly wrong…

But that’s the thing: they do not make sense, and there is no proof that I have seen that these ‘memories’ are truly mine.

Has anyone else had these doubts?

It's crossed my mind but in the end I'm not sure if it really makes much of a difference either way?

Not sure if it actually counts as proof but I have gotten something, not a memory but an actual physical item, which included a picture. And they sure look a lot like me.

if it feels right then why is it wrong

I remembered bleeding ink, and now I do, which feels like pretty compelling evidence. But even without that, after a year and half of this, I wouldn't doubt it even without any form of proof. I wouldn't want them to be someone elses, or a fabrication, either.
