Am I dead and is this heaven or hell?

No. I didn't ask this question. If you were dead, I could not interact with you. That means you would just be a figment of my imagination. Since I did not pose this question, you cannot be dead. Conversely, I could be figment of your imagination so you would have to ask yourself, did you type this answer? For a better philosophical dealing with this question you might look up the works of Descartes. He started with "I think therefore I am" as a proof that he actually lives and moved out from there.
