The Self as Narrative

The 'self' may not be a fixed entity but a story we continually construct to make sense of our lives.

Our memories, which shape our self-narrative, are not static but are reconstructed and altered with each recall.

Trauma can disrupt our life story, leading to a fragmented sense of self that challenges coherent self-narrative.

We perform different selves in various contexts, suggesting our identity is multifaceted rather than singular.

Acknowledging the narrative nature of self can empower us to rewrite our identities and embrace change.
