We’re all guilty of it! Trolling Instagram and Facebook, we’re caught hovering over the lavish vacays, delicious meals, wild parties and good times of our friends and connections. We just can’t seem to get enough! Thanks to social media, we’ve never been more in tune with our friends, but we’ve also never been so crazy aware of all the fun stuff we aren’t doing. It gets even crazier during the holidays. It’s easy to get a slight touch of jealousy… or get saddled with a little case of anxiety known as FOMO. Yup, you got it – Fear of Missing Out!
Holiday FOMO – Does This Happen to You?
“”fear of missing out”. The fear that if you miss a party or event you will miss out on something great.” urban dictionary
From drooling over your friends culinary extravaganzas to eyeing those front row seats at the concert you wish you were at, Instagram feeds are bringing out a little #FOMO in all of us (especially if we’re stuck at work!).
Do you ever find yourself suffering from a little touch of #FOMO?
