Main Character Syndrome
u/Lagrumpleway: “My little sister always seemed like the main character of our family story. She had this huge lovable personality, all these addictions to overcome, and had the movie star good looks. I spent a lot of my young adult life as a supporting cast member to her, helping, fighting, hoping. Seemed like things would get better for her.
Two years ago she died. I was totally bewildered. Lesson: you are the main character of your own life.”
