Basic: I think the world revolves around me. I am the centre of this universe, my universe.
Advanced: It might sound immature, stupid or whatever... but I believe everything in existence is here for ME, good things and bad things. Example... Jamie Lyn Spears, has a baby at 16, from this I get an impresion of her. That is her reason for being here. Her impression has been added to the vast thoughts inside my head- which will lead to other things.
I am not a bad person, I would not laugh at a kid being killed in front of me, or in a faraway country. But, I cannot "care" unless I am informed... and this will give me views on the matter- with these views from everything, I improve myself, and in some areas weaken myself.
I refuse to accept I am just another insignificant thing in this world. Not me. I have meaning, others are merely here for me to find that meaning in this game called life. Without them, there could be no me.
Confusing eh? Hard to explain...
... Merry Christmas ;)

Allen, I doubt that. I don't have urges to go on any school killing spree or anything, if thats your idea of serious mental health problems. ;) But don't worry, if I ever do- I'll go for you first.

Your universe are the things and people around you and how you interact within it. Everyone is the centre of their own universe.

Co-centric thinking can be a zen manner or even Christianity - we are all placed here for a reason, but determining the self-discovery of the why is the journey's adventure. So impressions of anything as you interpret them is always an addition to what you had before no matter what the information is and whether it benefits you or not.
EGO is a double edged sword. You can either to choose to have confidence and let it elevate you in an constructive manner or you can choose to let it consume you and deconstruct your relationships and how you interact with those around you.
It is the proverbial knife.
1. This knife can be used to provide food by taking an animal's life to nourish you, clothe you, keep you warm, etc. or it can be used as an instrument to take away a life of that same animal and allow it to decay and waste without once utilizing any of its parts
2. This same knife can defend for your life or take away another human's life out of hate and malice.
Did the chemical construction of this knife change? Is it not the same compounds of its sum components? The only thing that changed is its use.
All that matters, is you recognize you can use your universe that you are the centre of to help assist those around you with kindness, support, nurture, and love instead of a negative egostitcal attitude where you choose not to allow the helping hand to benefit others and you look out for only you and run over others.
Your mindset is how you choose to predispose yourself and the manner of your thinking. Only you can pause yourself if you feel you may hurt others or choose to ignore and allow yourself to run amok.
It is more than ok to have a myriad of thoughts running about inside you. It is not OK to have them consume you to the point you don't function in other aspects of your life. It is like all things, moderation and sometimes a little hesitation before you leap
Good luck and much prayers upon your many years of pondering life's puzzling thoughts. Perhaps you should considering pursuing humanities, psychology, and theology

It's not confusing to me, but you are quite confused. You need professional help as you DO matter in this world, but so do the rest of us. You can sometimes change what is bad and even what is good. If you believe in a higher power, then you would know that the Lord or whatever you believe in is with you and not against you. Jamie Spears just made a poor choice and that's all. We all make choices and must live with the consequences. I think you have some paranoid thinking going on there and need some guidance. You are not insignificant, but the world does not revolve around you. If you were the only one left on this planet, then I might be convinced. Life wouldn't have much meaning if it was just you right? There would be no "you" without your parents and God. As I said, you are here for a reason and you DO matter, as does the rest of us. I pray that you will understand this and get some help, as this isn't logical thinking and it's even selfish. I know you are NOT a bad person at all......just misguided. I see your tear when you say "Merry Christmas" and I feel your pain. Only you can do something about that. Merry Christmas to you too! I hope you find peace and joy.

I don't think you have a dangerous mindset, just don't push yourself on others like you are the center of their universe because your not, that's just a given my friend, I don't see you as a bad person because you might not care about something that your not informed of but think of this it's very well known to everyone that someone somewhere is killed every minute of everyday, for whatever reason just keep it in mind, it may mean something to you eventually, as far as being insignificant no one wants to be insignificant we are all playing the same game some are just better at it than others some just don't get a fair shake from the get go, even if you don't realize it some people might look at you the same as you look at them, you say others are merely there for you to find meaning, that works both ways friend you just don't see it because your all about you.

well it can be dnagerous or just lonely!
saidly the earth isn't here for just you or just me.
some tiems we can make it seem that way with thinking that!
but with that outlook at the same time you think everyone is out to get you and you take everything personally!
people like myself get annoyed by that! and needless to say i don't have friends that are all about themselfs!
it's hard to draw the line of is this too much thinking about myself and not about others or am i being to kind or what not!
You have a meaning here yes indeed but that meaning is personal and shouldn't be shared with everyone and that meaning is something only you should understand as well as it is to help the earth,. not your home not just you not just the enviroment the EARTH!
your mission in life your desire your motiviation stems from it!
sadly most never find it because they are to about them selfs to see it!
it's not a dangerous mindset but it can be! I know i was all about me! and it took my loving partner to show me how bad and good it could be!
so now i have a nice mixuture! and balance in my life!
frankly i have been the happiest ever! cuz those bad things i took personally and thought everyone was out to get me that alone killed my spirit!
yoru right it is hard to explain!

Depends a great deal on your age, we all go through the why are we here stage, but you are right in a way as you can only see life through your eyes not others.
What if this is all a dream, could be yours or mine or anyones.
Everyone is unique and no one is insignificant but I dont think that you have no more problems than the average person its just that you have actually come out and said it.
Deep subject.

There is nothing wrong with thinking the world is here to help you find your place in life. You explanation tells me that you don't put yourself above all, but use the experiences of others to learn and discover yourself. If you keep thinking this way you will do just that, if you start thinking about others in a negative way, then you've lost your intendened path. Be aware of what you say and what you do.

I don't think you have a dangerous mindset per se, it can even be a good thing to be confident and believe in yourself that you are here to do great things. The problem comes if you don't end up living up to what you hope to accomplish. Thinking highly of yourself and that you have a purpose is best balanced by acceptance of who you are and where you are no matter what that is.

i do no longer think of it grew to become into risky in any respect. there grew to become right into a time wen it grew to become into particularly useful. fantastically much each and every way of existence in the worldwide has used it or maybe those that fake to grant women persons status, that status grew to become into controlled by employing the guidelines of fellows. The patriarchal physique of thoughts has moved us by disadvantages so a procedures in heritage. i myself do no longer think of it extremely is to be condemned. I do think of that it extremely is now no longer needed. we've moved from the age of brawn into the age of intelligence. An smart woman is each and each piece as able to surviving, offering for a kinfolk, and being aggressive in this worldwide as we talk as a guy. The emphasis is now no longer on brawn yet on brains. The emphasis is now no longer on domination yet on cooperation. that's as actual in employer and multinational companies because it extremely is in society. attempt to dominate the patriarchal min set and you will finally end up resisted each and every step of ways. Cooperate with it, manage it, be taught to apply it, and it turns right into a helpful device. there is not any everlasting female in us as a society. it extremely is purely a stupid non secular thought. in case you quantify that fee, you will see that it extremely is approximately cooperation and that cooperation could be measured, envisioned, and utilized. we don't danger our very own extinction in any way shape or form. We do danger stagnation and a postpone in progression. women persons have brains too. Dogmatically pretending that girls persons are finally inferior or that they purely can no longer do the artwork that a guy can do in recent times is severely proscribing. Your Goddess can take a flying leap by a rolling donut. it extremely is purely yet another stupid non secular thought. A slave to a matriarchal device could be not greater advantageous than being a slave to a patriarchal device. Why no longer pull your head out of the fairy tale land of make have confidence and start to handle the worldwide because it extremely is.

I would not construe this as a dangerous mindset. The narcissus personality type is defamed. There are people who bore themselves rigid if left with their own thoughts. Be thankful that you are thus enamoured with the self. It is exemplary conduct for those fortuned enough to have your company for any length of time....

Had problems reading as your ego got in the way!
By the way you have some serious mental health issues that need to be addressed, ask your doctor to refer you to your adult mental health team.
