Some things are real, others are not. Unless you are afflicted with schizophrenia any intelligent adult should be able to tell the difference. If you think you are sitting on a unicorn, you have a big problem. Get some help!!!
Otherwise, examine your life to determine which things are true and those that are not. But, what if someone told you the truth and it was difficult to believe; what then? Again, an examination is in order. Christians have faith, but they also have a brain and must use it...
2 Peter, Chapter 1
16 For we did not follow cunningly devised fables, when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty. 17 For he received from God the Father honor and glory, when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” 18 We heard this voice come out of heaven when we were with him on the holy mountain.

What more can I say? Only this...
