Your issue is not Boltzmann brains at all. It’s basic rationality: noticing your own confusion and therefore giving very low weight to your own confused arguments (and fears). There are many many scary things one can imagine, and Boltzmann brains are not even in the top 100. At this point, don’t worry about physics, start with the basics.
You are not even wrong. You basilisked yourself, as intelligent people are prone to do. You privileged one specific super-low-probability fear (being a Boltzmann brain) over a multitude of much more realistic scary scenarios (like that you are in a coma, drugged, high, hallucinating etc). Once scared, your mind is focused on this one scenario that it randomly picked from a long list. The one once privileged in these parts of the internet was being tortured through acausal trade or something. If you have OCD tendencies, as would be my guess, then letting go of what your brain latched on is really hard, and requires learning coping techniques that have a lot to do with psychology, and nothing with physics.
In what sense that I’m not even wrong? and why do boltzmann’s brains have a very low probability? anyway i know i have ocd tendencies but it’s really hard to live with
Maybe “not even wrong” is not the best way to put it. Still, I think you would do well to focus on learning to avoid self-basilisking due to OCD or potentially other neurodivergent issues, rather than asking why any particular fear is unfounded. I am not a doctor though.

I know I’m scared, but so put it in a nutshell, what am I wrong in my arguments?
