Researchers are now saying that Facebook depression can be a real thing
Read the article from Third Age here
All I've got to say about this is it's about time someone noticed this!
I've dealt with Facebook depression symptoms all of Spring Break. I don't mean to make light of depression and what leads up to it. I'm being fairly serious here. It's really hard to sit at home (with the air traffic from JFK annoying the crap out of you) and watch as your friends post pictures of their adventures in Miami, Puerto Rico and Iceland. And trust me those relationship updates can be like a knife to the heart ("Really Annoying Bitch Who Made Your Life A Living Hell in Middle School is now in a relationship with That Really Hot Guy You Really Really Liked in High School").
So while some people might laugh at this article and what it proposes, I assure you that Facebook depression is no laughing matter, as is any form of depression for that matter.
