About
Lucky Girl Syndrome is a manifestation technique where you tell yourself that you're the luckiest girl in the world, that great things will happen to you and the world is rigged in your favor to the point of delusion. The term was coined in December 2022 by TikToker @lauragalebe and became increasingly popular leading into 2023, spreading beyond TikTok to sites including Instagram and Twitter. The term is essentially the law of assumption, another manifestation technique that claims if you assume something to be true, it will eventually manifest.
Origin
On December 17th, 2022, TikToker[1] @lauragalebe posted a video where she explains the concept of what she calls "lucky girl syndrome." In the video, she says she considers herself one of the luckiest people she knows and that it feels like the odds are "completely in [her] favor." She says that she's always made it a point to tell everyone that she is lucky and that she expects great things to happen to her and they do. At the end of the video, she says, "try being delusional for a month and tell me if your life doesn't change." The video gained over 3.1 million views in two months (shown below).
