Solipsism is similar to [[subjectivism]].

Solipsism fails on the unavoidable concrete experience of the [[reality]] of other minds through social interactions, parents, family members and community, the phenomena of [[language]] and [[communication]], unexpected occurrences and accident, conflict, arguments, unavoidable environmental and social irritations, involuntary distractions, differing states of physical health, sensory responses not intended or expected, exposure to surprising new ideas, discovery of limitations of understanding, correction of previously unnoticed errors in reasoning, discovery of things previously unknown to oneself, episodes of dreamless sleep and unconsciousness followed by conscious awareness, and the inescapable conclusion finally that one's own mind is not self-subsistent or self-caused but must have had an unremembered beginning in a universe that one did not create or generate or maintain.
