In a medical breakthrough for the terminally insecure, local socialite Cheryl Tan has successfully undergone a high-risk neuro-lobotomy to cure her devastating case of party-related FOMO.

The procedure, costing more than a small Sentosa bungalow, allows Cheryl to hallucinate herself into the background of every Instagram story she wasn't actually in.

Medical experts claim this is the only way for Singaporean girls to survive the trauma of seeing a group of people standing near a charcuterie board without them.

"Wah lau, I see them post the champagne pic, my heart stop beating for five seconds sia," Cheryl said from her recovery bed, while frantically refreshing her feed.

"Now got the chip inside, I can pretend I was the one holding the glass, even though I was actually at home eating plain crackers in the dark."

Friends say the surgery was necessary after Cheryl spent three days screaming at a wall because she wasn't invited to a gathering for a dog she doesn't even like.

"She very siao one, last week she cry until her fake eyelashes fall off because she never get the Telegram link for a random housewarming," said her friend, Jolene.

Doctors warn that if Cheryl sees one more 'Close Friends' story she's excluded from, her internal organs might simply give up.
