I am addicted to Facebook. Seems like it consumes my life sometimes. I've tried to deactivate my account and find myself always looking at my phone with disappointment. Within a few days, I'm usually right back on it. And I can't stop scrolling! So I figured I would check this out and maybe trade one addiction for another! Ha! Your thoughts on the Facebook addiction? Am I the only one?

I found myself doing this or texting people but I found when I was bored I would do this, or I'd get into a depressing mood I would do this. It took a few weeks to get it out of my system and not log in. I do log in now, but don't tend to be on as often. I find myself doing more things, and going out with friends more.

The longest I've been off of it is 2 weeks. And it wasn't as interesting at first, but it's almost like it becomes a habit. It makes me so mad! Lol

@kschnitzmeyer It is ahabit! I find myself when I have nothing else to do logging on, or just to scroll thru things. Now I have shut off my data so notifications dont show up. It has really helped, and I have made plans on y days off.

I'll get to that point some day! It's just hard because I keep in contact with friends and family I don't normally get to see regularly

Yes, Facebook makes me addictive to. Even when I just want to visit for a while, I can't keep my hands from scrolling. It really consumes time

I've deactivated my account before too. I definitely can get a lot more done when I don't have it, but there's something about it that just keeps me coming back. I am in a lot of the groups I enjoy so I like to read about things like that. I don't ever play any games or anything on there.

I just like to read the memes. And honestly, that's how I keep up with the local news now! Lol
