Doubting has certain characteristic manifestations, but they are only
characteristic of it in particular circumstances. If someone said that he
doubted the existence of his hands, kept looking at them from all sides, tried
to make sure it wasn’t all ‘done with mirrors’, etc. we should not be sure
whether to call that doubting. We might describe this way of behaving as like
the behaviour of doubt, but his game would not be ours.
so there is doubt about doubt
