FBoholic...

is it just me or most of us...? I find myself, often, in a self-made rehab center trying to get rid of the excessive compulsive disorder of facebooking....

So, let me see, what do you do the first thing in the morning when you get up? If visiting facebook is not one of the first 5 things you do in the morning then I must congratulate you for you are the one who has been successful at restraining away from all the worldly temptations of the latest cyber addiction, of socializing. You probably also have found a perfect excuse to subdue the once in a while arousal of let's-join-the-bandwagon feeling. And, ofcourse you have mastered the art of saying "No" to a friend-request when you really wanted to say so! Not to forget, neither do you like to spend virtually half of your life chatting / poking / scrapping distant friends whom you haven't met in years as well as the ones next door or cabin whom you meet every coffee and tea break, nor do you rejoice at harvesting a perfectly grown (virtual) farm... you probably don't also raise your thumb saying wow! "i liked it" to an obvious thing somebody just brought to your notice... you don't also share every third thought that comes to your mind with the entire world.... you don't share photos of your cute puppies, rabbits, rats, cats, shoes, socks, toothbrush... or every third activity you do in a week as your greatest achievement! you live every moment to see the world as it is... and not live every moment to show the world, the world as you think it is....

.... but if you think you show signs against any of the above traits.... probably you need to spend some time too in a self-made rehab center trying to get rid of the excessive compulsive disorder of facebooking...
