The only direct experience I have is me, not physics.

That is solipsism.

Physics is an explanation of my experiences, not reality.

So your experiences are not real? If physics explains your experiences, then physics is primary -- it is the reality underlying your experiences.

You said it -- I am not putting words into your mouth. I think you may be finding that your solipsism leads to nothing but confusion.

    ​
    Physics does not need logic or mathematics or anything else to
    prove it's existence to us because we all have the ability to
    detect physics by direct experience
    ​ ,​
    ​ and that far outranks proof.​
    Humans originally

    invented mathematics to better understand and manipulate the
    physical world
    ​, and logic is the stuff that produces no inconsistencies with
    our observation of that physical world. ​
