Why do things Exist?

Hi,

It’s 10 o clock at night here, as I was sleeping I started to get some next level existential thoughts, so I decided to make an account to get some answers from like minded people.

The one thing I cannot wrap my head around, is the idea of existence. I want you all to picture similarly from my perspective, so I’ll try my best.

For the sake argument let’s just say it’s the birth of the universe and no life currently exists, which means no consciousness is present to notice existence. All we have is rocks, particles etc swirling around endlessly. Why do these things exist? What’s the point in space?

Why do particles exist? Why does space exist?? This is giving me a lot of anxiety thinking about this, but it’s equally deep and interesting for It

I don’t expect an answer, but I would like to hear people’s perspective if they also struggle with this.
