a solipsist believes
"My mind is the only thing that exists".

so since he believes that all there is of the world is "my possible experience",,,,, he would not perceive of death,,,,, he has always been, for as long as he can remember,,,,,, and all that he remembers is all that is! so no,,,,,, he wouldnt think he can die,,,,,,, or not continue to be,,,,,,,he would not even contemplate it,, as if it happened, there would be nothing,,, so he wouldnt even know about it

In theory solipsist believes that he himself is the only thing that really exists, that other people and the universe in general exist only in his imagination, and that if he quit imagining them, they would cease to exist.

A solipsist believes he came to be because he willed himself to be In other words...he wasn't born into the Universe as much as the Universe was born of him. He doesn't believe that he can die...for everything is him...where to die to--oblivion????. His life as he knew it could die, only because he would not think the thoughts he thought before.
