subjective reality
Individual experiential truth
Subjective reality is the world as experienced through an individual's perceptions, beliefs, and interpretations—reality filtered through personal consciousness.
What feels real to one person may not match another's experience or objective measurement.
The concept acknowledges that human experience is inevitably shaped by the mind doing the experiencing: In her subjective reality, the criticism felt like an attack.
