Fear of missing out or FOMO is a form of social anxiety, whereby one is compulsively concerned that one might miss an opportunity for social interaction, a novel experience, profitable investment or other satisfying event. The fear is especially associated with modern technologies such as mobile phones and social networking services such as Facebook and Twitter, which provide constant opportunity for comparison of one's status. Through an increased reliance on the Internet, a psychological dependence to being online has developed and results in anxiety when one feels disconnected, thereby leading to a fear of missing out.
I think I have it. I have to constantly be online (via pc or phone) just in case something worth a kii happens.
Used to. And maybe kinda I am a bit. But if I still am it's not as strong!!! Being in a happy relationship with my bf and being comfortable with my friends going out with me despite an invite helped a lot for sure. It may creep back in certain situations
I seriously think so. I never say no to hanging out with people or going to a party because I don't want to miss out. I want to go to like every concert and I'm afraid to be forgotten in real life and sometimes on ATRL. Its bad
