The Symptoms Of Social Media Addiction
How do social media addicts behave? No idea?
Well, Reem Abeidoh's Introspect social media site gives us the symptoms. He said:
You might be a social media addict if…
1. Your sink is spilling over with dishes, you haven't bathed in "a while" and your cat is probably dead
2. You find more solace in your virtual communities than at the dinner table, scarfing down turkey with the family
3. You twittered your pregnancy and engagement (and divorce) long before your friends and family found out
4. You've gotten so comfortable with IM that the thought of actual human contact totally freaks you out
5. You find Second Life to be a much greater alternative to real life
6. You missed the whole "fire thing" in California, but you were all over your friends' status changes
7. You no longer take pictures for memories sake; they're all for your social networking profiles
8. You poke some people and super poke the ones you really like… if you know what I mean
9. "Digg me," "Facebook me," and "MySpace me" have replaced "goodbye," "see you later," and "call me" – and it doesn't even faze you
10. Your hear a hysterical joke, and your first response is "LOL"
Are you in or out?
