It seems to me like there’s a high chance to start with mental models like the dreaming paradox that are based on wrong assumptions about how cognition works.
Being in feedback loops with the external world is fundamentally different then dreaming. Schizophrenics are similar in the way the get lost with internal abstractions and lose contact to being in touch with reality.
Building up sanity by untangling abstractions the General Semantics way and building up self-awareness by mediating does help with being in touch with the truth in a way that a standard approach of logic doesn’t.
