FOMO – WHY IS IT SO HARD TO SAY NO?

More and more young people are increasingly experiencing FOMO, and fearing that they are missing out on communities, experiences and relationships, among other things. But FOMO is not just about the fear of missing out, but according to several young people, it is also about identity, social media, future pressure and performance culture.

What exactly is FOMO? What impact can FOMO have on young people's everyday lives? What can be done to ease the pressure for young people who experience it? Headspace focuses on this in the stage feature “FOMO – why is it so hard to say no?”. Here we talk about the expectations young people face in everyday life, and the dilemmas that arise when you want to say no but don't want to miss out on something.
