Has anyone felt anxiety about FOMO when others move on?
I have anxiety about a lot of things and have worked through a lot of through therapy. One type of anxiety that catches me off guard every time is that I’m missing out when others move on and Im still stuck even though I’m not. It’s so irrational that I can’t figure how to break it down to process.
For example, our neighbors are moving. And I have been feeling anxious that they get to move while I’m still stuck where I am. Even though I’m in my dream home and very happy with the home. It’s such a weird feeling. I’m happy for them but feel like I should be doing the same even though I prayed for a long time for our current home. Am I making a mistake by staying?
I don’t want to feel this way. I just want to be happy for others when life brings these changes.
Has anyone experienced something similar? I would appreciate insight to understand these feelings.
