As a self-proclaimed panic buyer, I often find myself caught in a whirlwind of impulsive purchases, especially during times of uncertainty. The sight of dwindling supplies, be it toilet paper during a pandemic or a limited-edition item about to sell out, triggers an almost primal urge to acquire. My logic takes a backseat as the fear of missing out (FOMO) and the perceived need for security drive my decisions. I've learned to recognize the tell-tale signs: a racing heart, a quick scroll through online reviews, and the inevitable "add to cart" click, often followed by a brief moment of regret. It's a constant battle between rational thought and the powerful pull of scarcity.
