Facebook depression ...

Some people are saying that too much of Facebook is causing children to be depressed due to their small number of friends.

Its something that is happening around the world and its becoming an pandemic.

People...
Wake up.

This kind of depression happens with or without Facebook.

The only difference is that its more "public" instead of "private".

A lot of people had issues with relationships (I mean the one with friends and not the one involving sex) because of their lack of social skills.

Facebook is a social networking tool.
So of course there is going to be "Social Depression".

"We feel like we are losers because we don't have friends."
Thats what this is all about.
The sense of belonging.
The sense of being a part of something more than ourselves.

And its not new.

A lot of people base their sense of value on what others think of them.
So if your circle of friends are small, that "value" will obviously be "small".
Its a part of how people thinks.

It took me a while to understand this myself but eventually I understood that quality is better than quantity.
It was when I started to understand this rule that I began to have the opposite gender being interested with me. They seem to suddenly saw something different in me when I understood that I am happy with who I am. That itself is a different story from from
this post.

So if you feel like your depressed and that you have no friends?
Sit down.
Breath.
Be honest and think this through.
You always have friends.
You just don't have the friends you "want".
But you always have friends.

If you still don't?
Go out and talk to someone.
You will be surprise how many people who might want to be yours.
