Can you imagine a world of your own into existence?
Specifying the question more clearly would spoil the point. Simply, theoretically, can you create a world by imagining it? Even though it may consist of elements (such as yourself) located in this world, that doesn't have to negate the possibility.

Writers of all kinds (poets, screenwriters, novelists, etc) do this for a living.
The idea that thoughts (imagined events) can become 'physical' is a staple premise for science-fiction stories, and also features strongly in the 'fantasy' category of fiction.
The people involved in the creation of movies are often very motivated by the notion that they are making an imaginary world 'come alive'.

The perceived world would only exist in the individuals mind, therefore it would exist, but since we are limited creatures and can't actually create something tangible, I would question the sanity of the person. Also the definition of "world" would need to be established.

Much would depend on your inherent abilities, and application, but either or both may be worth trying.

Yes. Many people do and I would think that anyone could. However, I do also believe that it would require a complete mental break from THIS reality.

You should consult with your respective mental specialist doctor who can understand the problem and give you better advice.
