According to doctors and psychologists from all over the world, many of their patients believe there in a whole different universe. Some convinced themselves there being secretly filmed for a TV contest to reality shows being made about them.These delusions can affect anybody, not just certain people. Researchers are documenting this as the "Truman Syndrome."
Ian Gold, a philosophy and psychology professor at McGill University suggest that people are becoming ill quicker through reality shows and the internet. While others believe there's a connection between culture and mental health.
Some of Dr. Gold's patients mentioned The Truman show. It's a struggle to sort out reality and illusion. Some even planned to commit suicide if he or she couldn't leave their supposed reality shows.Some even takes pride into their imagined celebrity position. In the Truman Show, Truman's friends and family were actors and every moment of his life was being broadcast.That's how certain patients feel and it can be horrifying.
"Truman syndrome" as they call it affects these people. It's affecting their conscious. The struggle to sort out what is real and what is not is a huge step for them.
