Perception Deception

Your character can read minds but struggles with the woes of knowing everyone’s thoughts and intentions.

Here, the idea of ‘blessing in disguise’ is inverted as the ability of the protagonist to read minds gives birth to an overwhelming influx of thoughts, truths, and manipulations that put them on a painful path of isolation. This prompt uniquely outlines the affliction of being overly conscious about underlays of human behaviors and exploiting it as a base for psychological intricacies.
