Messiah complex

Uncommon card · No. 143913

The messiah complex is a state of mind in which a person believes they are a messiah or prophet and will save or redeem people in a religious endeavour. The term can also refer to a mental disorder in which an individual believes that they are responsible for saving others. Those with a messiah complex can have either good or bad intentions. Some genuinely wish to help others even at their own expense, while others are motivated by a desire for praise, power or validation of their self-worth.
