As Saint Gasoline pointed out, "Cogito ergo sum".
But even though you are directly experiencing your own thought process (which I'd think would be pretty good evidence that "you" exist), you seem to doubt it.
So let me put it this way: there's a pretty simple duality here. Either you exist, in which case your question has meaning; or you don't exist, in which case you're nothing more than a chemical machine, and the question is totally meaningless.
But you chose to ASK that question. Which implies that you believe that you DO exist, since otherwise there's no point in asking anything at all.
Okay, granted, that's not an absolute proof that you exist. But you seem to be feeling some discomfort over the issue. Which is, I'd argue, another proof that you exist; I should look up the Latin for "I feel, therefore I am".
So presented with two possibilities, neither of which can be absolutely proven, it only makes sense to chose to believe the one that makes you happier. That way, even if you DON'T exist - even if you're just a machine of chemicals and atoms, following a predestined path - at least you'll be a HAPPIER machine.
Good luck!
