The Number of Circles You See!

The image shows concentric circles. Depending on how you look, you might see

one big circle or many smaller ones. The meme claims this reveals something

about your personality—specifically narcissism. The Truth There’s no

scientific basis for this. Your perception of an optical illusion

depends on things like: Attention span, Screen size,

Visual focus. It does not indicate narcissism or any other personality trait.

What Is Narcissism? Clinical narcissism (NPD): A rare mental health condition with traits like grandiosity,

lack of empathy, and need for admiration. Everyday use: Often refers to

being vain or self-centered—very different from NPD. Why We Fall for It It’s

quick and shareable. It taps into our curiosity about ourselves. It plays

on confirmation bias and the Barnum Effect, (believing vague traits apply to us).

The Bigger Picture Memes like this aren’t harmful by themselves, but they:

Oversimplify serious conditions Spread misinformation Risk reinforcing stereotypes.
