Truman syndrome

In this reading " Why People Think They're Living In A Reality Show ", Colin Lecher shows that people feel like they are living in a TV show. In other words, people feel like somebody is watching them in their daily activity. So, they have these unreal beliefs in their mind.
I agree with the author that especially in the United States of America, some people are convinced that the FBI is behind their back even if they are clean.
I also think that these unreal beliefs have a negative impact on people behavior.

When I just came to America, I was very surprised of my cousins thoughts. In fact, they were always warning me about what to say on the phone. For them, all the phone calls were monitored by the US government.
