Main Character Syndrome

• Main character syndrome is defined by a self-centered worldview where one views themselves as the primary protagonist in life, which can be harmful when it affects empathy and behavior towards others.

• Signs of main character syndrome include difficulty accepting criticism, an exaggerated sense of importance, and seeking constant attention. These behaviors can strain relationships and hide deeper insecurities or issues with self-worth.
