FOMO : FOMO explained and treatment in 2021 Hindi

The fear of missing out refers to the feeling or perception that others are having more fun, living better lives, or experiencing better things than you are. It involves a deep sense of envy and affects self-esteem. It is often exacerbated by social media sites like Instagram and Facebook.
The idea of FOMO is not new to our era. This term was coined in a 1996 research paper by marketing strategist, Dr. Dan Herman.
Who experiences FOMO? According to a study, girls with depression and boys with anxiety use more social media. More by adolescents. One study in the Psychiatry Research journal found that the fear of missing out was linked to greater smartphone and social media usage.
So what can be done?
Change Your Focus on social media app: Rather than focusing on what you lack, try noticing what you have. How? Add more positive people to your feed; hide people who tend to brag too much or who are not supportive of you. Follow positive things in media like positive psychology or mental health
Keep a personal journal of your best memories, either online or on paper. Keeping a journal can help you to shift your focus from public approval to private appreciation of the things that make your life great. This shift can sometimes help you to get out of the cycle of social media and FOMO.
Arrange meetups: Rather than trying to connect more with people on social media, why not arrange to meet up with someone in person?
Making plans with a good friend, creating a group outing, or doing anything social that gets you out with friends can be a nice change of pace, and it can help you to shake that feeling that you are missing out. It puts you in the center of the action. If you do not have time to make plans, even a direct message on social media to a friend can foster a greater and more intimate connection than posting to all of your friends and hoping for "likes."
Focus on Gratitude: Studies (Positive psychology and gratitude intervention) show that engaging in gratitude-enhancing activities like gratitude journaling or simply telling others what you appreciate about them can lift your spirits as well as those of everyone around you. Try telling your friend how grateful you are to him or her for bring there with you. This is partially because it is harder to feel as if you lack the things you need in life when you are focused on the abundance you already have. It also holds true because making others feel good makes us feel good.
Remember that we all have experienced it at some point or the other. You are not alone. If you feel you are suffering from feelings of missing out, it can be helpful to reach out to a friend or spend some time reflecting on the things you are grateful for in your life. Activities like these can help us put things in perspective as we gather a greater sense of belonging and release the anxiety of "missing out" on anything. And do not hesitate to reach out for help if it is causing you difficulty. Remember that mental health is as important as physical health.
