Nomophobia is the fear of being without your phone. And many of us have it - ABC Everyday
Have you ever found yourself without your mobile phone and been struck with a sense of panic? You might have nomophobia.
It’s more a fear that I’ve lost a device that costs me $1000+
Absolutely. My last phone was a Pixel 3a I got for $80 running GrapheneOS, and everything important was backed up.
The peace of mind that comes with not giving a shit about your phone is great. I’ve missed that since upgrading to a new $600 slab of glass.
I keep my phone around because it's quite useful if something doesn't go to plan
Lol, I must be a bad millennial. I routinely forget my phone exists and leave it on my desk in my home office when I leave to run errands or w/e. It is funny when I notice though. I even am supposed to work from it during the day and yeah... Maybe that is why I never care. That and severe ADHD.
The fear of being alone with your thoughts with no escape mechanism.
I mean I can use my own thoughts as an escape mechanism just fine, I've just had a medical emergency before when I didn't have my phone with me and really needed it, so I prefer to have my phone on me if possible.
