Fomo: Why We Can't Stop Scrolling

Ever get that weird pang when you see everyone out living their best lives on Insta while you’re chilling at home? That’s “fomo”—fear of missing out—and it’s basically social media’s secret weapon. The term was coined back in 2004, but it’s exploded with our obsession over everyone else’s highlight reels. Experts say it messes with our self-esteem and keeps us glued to our phones. Maybe it’s time to swap fomo for a little “jomo”—the joy of missing out! #Health #MentalHealth #FOMO
