I Suffer From... FOMO

What is FOMO? It is a rare but serious social disorder that stands for Fear Of Missing Out. What is the worst thing a person with FOMO can hear? "You should've been there!"

I will share all of the intimate details of my experience with the disorder from symptoms (overbooking!), diagnosis (I have what?!), consequences ($$$), enablers (friends), support systems (family), and more.
