AI is Causing a Mass Psychosis

In summer 2025, TikToker Kendra Hitly went viral accusing her psychiatrist of grooming her into falling in love with him. The allegation was serious. People were paying close attention.

Then the more she posted, the less believable it got.

What started as a potential medical misconduct case became something far darker: the first public case study in AI psychosis. A real phenomenon with real victims. A wrongly doxxed doctor who never did anything wrong. A teenager who just wanted to finish his homework, and didn't survive it.

This isn't a story about a troubled TikToker. It's a warning about what happens when AI starts rewriting someone's reality, and no one catches it in time.

🎧 In this episode, we trace the rise of AI psychosis, from Kendra's viral spiral to the moment a technology we built to assist us started destroying the people who trusted it most.

🧠 Share this with someone who thinks AI can't hurt anyone. This episode is their wake-up call.
