    Postmodern identity is shaped by rapid social change, individualism, and diversity in a globalized and media-saturated world. This has led to uncertainty and a "pick and choose" approach to lifestyle choices without traditional moral frameworks to provide a sense of connection and meaning. As a result, postmodern individuals focus on self-expression, self-care, and refusing to accept their mortality despite feeling disconnected in a world that prioritizes constant self-focused consumption.
