A BIT ABOUT #FOMO
"Fear of Missing out" isn't exactly new, but has been taken to new extremes with the 24/7 access of social media. Simon Kelner of The Independent wrote the article Is FOMO depriving us of our ability to exist in the present and take pleasure in the here and now? He says of FOMO:
"you’re immediately paralysed with anxiety, unable to enjoy what’s in front of you because you feel something better, more exciting, more important is happening elsewhere."
I think we can all relate to this one. It actually makes me want to give all Millennials a Xanax and tell them it's going to be okay...
Thanks for looking out for us!
