I was recommending U.B.I.K by Phillip K. Dick to someone and said it kind of reminded me of Inception. Made me wonder if anyone can think of any other stories like it.

Has been a couple of years since I read it but Neuromancer didn't really have a "losing your grip on reality" theme. At least not for me. It's also tough to read. Really didn't like the writing style of the author.
Like u/YouAreAPirate already suggested Sphere is a good candidate. Blindsight by Peter Watts too.
Currently reading The Peripheral and agree that Gibson can be a tough read. I've read most of his stuff but I'm finding this to be very obtuse and annoying.
I seriously struggled to finish Neuromancer and vowed to never read it again. It was like listening to an incoherent, shitfaced, high as a kite guy in a bar trying to tell you a story. The story itself is good but the way he tells it is painful to read. Just not my cup of tea.
