What we feel is not the object or event in the world outside our bodies and brain.
What we feel is our perception of that object or event.
This perception is governed by our own chemical make up (as you suggest) and our unique past experiences and history. Therefore we all "feel" differently towards the same object or event.
We can recognise and agree on objects and events by placing them in those categories that we learn and agree on.
But knowing and comparing what we feel, the essence of what we feel, is impossible because we cannot communicate that essence. Although such things as music, literature and art have striven to do so.

Take everything you recieve as real and untainted. Embrace it as if it were a gift from a higher source. You have all the choices that you are to be given. Make no mistake it's not a curse. And you are the only, one who can make you what you are worth. No one can ever tell you what your inside has already said. Pay full attention to your body, heart and your head. Do give in to the hype and don't take no as an answer.
If you feel it inside, then so be it. Take all and say nothing see what your given to see. You'll never be wrong if you give unto thy. By the way thy. means you.
lol
as you are one in this life, and that is what will set you free you are what you are and no one else will be. Make every choice that you take one that your willing to pay the price and your mistakes will be forgiven if you can forgive me.
lol again.

And those can be broken down into atoms and neutrons. So and atom bomb is also a chemical reaction, as is a sunset. Your forgetting about the intangibles like consciousness, and spirituality, and the ability to hope and dream.... all chemical reactions... I don't think so!

if what we feel is unreal, what makes you think that 'chemical imbalances in the body' even exist?
it is not possible to disprove matrix-like solipsism, but it is very easy to demonstrate how it actually has no meaning as such.
but not on a board like this, one needs to be in an interactive situation to demonstrate this point.

everything's tends to equilibrium right? a robust and proven chemical principle Le Chatelier's Principle so reality and unreality hang round this point? everything is as real as it is unreal? philosophical dogma or what? or just plain old equilibrium?

What is "real"? How do you define it, if not by the perceptions you experience with your physical body?

perception. if the sky is green to me and red to you. as long as we both agree to call it "blue", we share the same perception. kind of like the majority of our senses.
