当你面临太多相似的选择，无法决定的时候产生的焦虑感就叫“选择焦虑（choice anxiety）”，现在越来越多的人有这种困扰，“选择焦虑症”也越来越受到人们的重视。

Research on consumerism shows that shoppers experience increased anxiety when asked to choose from a greater number of similar products. In this case, a reduction of choices reduces anxiety and eases decision-making.

消费主义研究显示，面对的相似产品选择越多，购物者的选择焦虑就越严重。在这种情况下，减少现有选择的数量能够减轻焦虑并有助于购物者做决定。
