Descartes: "I think; therefore, I am." But Descartes was a schizophrenic. So, I don't think we should trust him. But I only used to worry about that when I smoked the reefer. So maybe you should stop and then you'll know you're real.

There's no way to not be a real person -- if you can breathe, you're real. However, it is possible to get caught up in all sorts of ideas about how you should be and try to conform yourself to those ideas -- that would be called "not being yourself". The cure for that is just to try to be aware: to see what those ideas are, and look at the underlying motives for clinging to them. If you study this sort of thing in enough depth, it becomes clear that the inauthenticity is a problem... most people will drop the false self if they see it clearly enough.
