Understanding Victim Mentality
Victim syndrome or victim mentality describes individuals who consistently view themselves as victims, often regarding minor issues as significant injustices. These individuals exhibit traits such as an inability to recognize their role in conflicts, an exaggerated view of their problems, and a perception that they lack control over their lives. Their conversations tend to focus solely on their negative experiences, showing little interest in the issues faced by others. This mindset not only affects their personal relationships but can also create a draining atmosphere for those around them who may feel depleted by the constant negativity.
