| dc.description.abstract | This study intends to explore the cause and effect of psychological trauma by examining the character Hannah Baker from a popular TV show Thirteen Reasons Why. It outlines the conflicts faced by adolescents in the contemporary world and how suicide is a subject which is barely dealt with when it comes to young individuals. It analyzes the effects of popular media culture in shaping the psychology of adolescents by highlighting the psychological dysfunctions. For this purpose, a popular TV Show Thirteen Reasons Why is studied under the Theory of Anxiety by Sigmund Freud, proving the hypothesis “Everything Affects Everything”. It shows how a petite issue can cause an unexpected turn of events, forcing an individual to end his own life. This study examines how people can understand the patterns of adolescent’s behavior. Besides the criticism on the forthright portrayal of the issue of suicide, it also sheds light on the repercussions of social distress. It studies the character of Hannah Baker who ends her life after the sheer struggle against the high school bullies. In addition, it sheds light on the difference of physical and psychological effects of bully on a woman in the patriarchal society. | |
