About this listen
Welcome to the podcast that puts a name to that feeling: "Main Character Syndrome." We're dissecting the cultural phenomenon, fueled by TikTok and our addiction to the algorithm, that encourages us to view our lives as a constant performance. This isn't just about trends; it's an autopsy of how social media is fundamentally warping our self-perception.
We’ll dive into the science, exploring the shocking link between frequent posting and Grandiose Narcissism, and how these platforms are the perfect stage for self-promotion. We’ll unpack how endless content consumption is quietly rewriting the values and identity formation of a generation, leading to a new kind of emotional burnout.
This is the definitive conversation about the pressure to maintain a curated online persona and the profound anxiety that comes with it. We're not here to tell you to delete your apps. We're here to give you the psychological toolkit to navigate the digital culture without losing yourself in the process.
If you're ready to log off the performance and log into your real life, hit that subscribe button. It's time to be the author of your story, not just the main character.
