In the new talk show "We are close" on radio Pyatnitsa, STB presenter Nadiya Matveeva together with psychologist Olena Shershnyova discussed one of the most pressing problems of our time — the syndrome of lost opportunities during the war.

What is missed opportunity syndrome?

Psychologist Olena Shershnyova explained the nature of this phenomenon, which arises from the feeling of losing time and the inability to catch up with life. "Missed opportunity syndrome is an anxious state when it seems that life is passing us by and we don't have time. Our brain signals that we need to hurry, because others seem to have time for everything. This leads to increased anxiety and dissatisfaction with life, and later can cause depression, " said Shershnyova.

Influence of social networks

Nadiya Matveeva emphasized the importance of a responsible approach to content in social networks. "Social networks create the illusion of a perfect life, which can be misleading. I try to show in my posts what inspires and helps to maintain the mood, especially during the war, " said Matveeva.

How to reduce anxiety?

The talk show guests also discussed the importance of detoxing from social media and ways to reduce anxiety. Nadia advises to periodically give up social networks, focusing on your own life and achievements. Olena Shershnyova recommends maintaining a balance in life, resting and not overloading yourself mentally and physically, and in case of prolonged depression, to contact specialists.

Conclusion

In conclusion, Nadiya Matveeva and Olena Shershnyova emphasized the importance of a conscious approach to life and social networks. Abandoning idealized images and focusing on one's own achievements can significantly reduce anxiety levels and increase life satisfaction.
