Facebook Depretion
I do think people get cases of Facebook depretion. People (mostly teens) who use Facebook will understand what i mean by "Facebook drama". With almost a third of the world using it, it has a large effect on peoples social lives. Almost everyone has it. It even has some real world implications. Lots of high schoolers wont even consider a relationship validated unless its "Facebook official". People get worked up over things like their amount of friends, wall posts, taged pictures, and in my opinion its pretty ridiculous, people act like their amount of friends in comparison to their friends has some sort of social significance when in reality Facebook was designed to be a medium for which people can find their freinds and communicate. They treat their amount of friends like some kind of score and they get depressed when their friends is higher. Not only that, but people get upset by other peoples posts, profile pictures, tags, even farmville. In the end its just for communication, but people tend to make the misconception (again, mostly teens) that this validates and is an accurate comparison to ones social life.
