Main Character Syndrome

Main character syndrome is a social media-driven, non-clinical term for viewing oneself as the protagonist of a movie-like life, often prioritizing personal experiences over others. It involves romanticizing daily life, dramatic self-perception, and treating acquaintances as "supporting characters," sometimes leading to narcissistic, self-absorbed, or isolating behaviors.

Person A: The universe was testing me today, but I am still the plot.
