📱 eBook en inglés PROTAGONIST SYNDROME

"Im the main character, and youre just an NPC." This mindset, fueled by TikTok trends, is reshaping how we interact with reality. Sociologist Sarah Jenkins explores "Protagonist Syndrome" (or Main Character Energy) in her sharp critique of modern individualism.
Jenkins argues that constantly documenting our lives creates a dissociative state where we view our own existence as a performance and others as mere props. This leads to a lack of empathy (blocking traffic for a photo) and a fragility when "plot twists" (real life tragedies) happen that dont fit the narrative arc.
The book connects this to the "Truman Show Delusion" and the loneliness epidemic. Jenkins offers a path back to "Ensemble Energy"—finding joy in being part of a community rather than the star of a solipsistic movie. A guide to stepping out of the spotlight and back into humanity.
