Sounds like a great place for meditation.
Pedantic thought experiment side note that is ironically long for a side note:
How is it a void if it contains the ecosystems and consciousness(ess? (Gut biome and the various microscopic skin mites, etc)) of a human body?
That's a fuck ton of biology, physics, chemistry, philosophy, etc for a space where nothing is supposed to be. Does time also exist there? Because if it didn't you couldn't be aware of your self in there, so that would be a problem solved.
If time does exist in this void though, by entering the void you will have changed its nature, it will stop being a void and it starts just being more of you. ...And if you still can't feel anything, I think this is called depression.
let’s go with entropy exists as we know it, gravity is welcoming to a human body but there is no ground. no up or down. the arrow of time is what we know it as. it’s just an endless void where any action you take doesn’t affect your environment and the environment doesn’t affect you. lol not depression, thinking in terms of horror
You'd have about 3 days of quiet contemplation before the dehydration will kill you.
Considering how horrifying the thought of a void is for you, at least you won't be stuck in there for very long.
horrifying then probably boring few days
