Today, I realized I've been sinking into a deep depression, ignoring all my friends, and don't know what to do with my life anymore. This is all because I gave up Facebook for lent. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, Facebook stopped working and I realized how emotionally dependent I am on social media. FML
Today, I kept restarting my internet, wondering why I wasn't receiving any messages from my friends. Then I realized they were all ignoring me. FML
Today, I decided not to go on Facebook so people would actually think that I have a life. FML
Today, I spent an hour deleting 70 of my status posts from the past week so I don't look so addicted to Facebook. Damn, I need a life. FML
Today, I realised that my social anxiety, fear of people's judgment, social isolation, you name it, have got so bad that I literally have no interests. It got to such a point that I even have nothing to search up in the internet, so I just stare at an empty browser page wondering what should I do with my life. FML
Today, my social anxiety got so bad that I'm now afraid to add people on Facebook. FML
Today, while pensively thinking up my next awesome Facebook status over dinner, I finally came to the conclusion that I need to get a life. FML
Today, after growing tired of my friends group leaving me behind every time and having secrets between them, I started to ignore them and stopped following them, without saying anything. They haven't spoken to me since, and it's been 7 months. I'm alone. FML
Today, I decided that after three days, I had to cut short my hiatus from social media. I saw a correlation between that and my anxiety going through the roof, causing my work performance to suffer. I’m so addicted to social media that in my off time, I think I was having withdrawal symptoms. FML
Today, I was feeling really down and decided to text a friend to vent to someone about it. Then I realized, I don’t have any friends. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Did any of y'all ever hear of an addiction? The internet AND facebook are like drugs to some people. Would you make fun of them? Oh wait, you would cause your immature.
Dreamcatcher619 6
I have a fb and I'm not afraid to say it, I know it's not good for this convo right now but at least I can control and addiction.
Lustuu_fml 14
#186- Or maybe just intolerant. OP is ridiculous, and I don't care being intolerant. OP should buy a life, there are so many REAL problems in life, it's stupid to create one with a Fu*king social network. OP immature. Not us.

geko911 22
lol 186 sry but there is a serious problem is some one becomes addicted to a social network site like that.. look i fid myself pathetic to play that much on online games as i almost consider it like an addiction and yes it's a problem!! We are immature for saying it? suks to b u sister.. OP sry to hear you are getting depressed but maybe its time u look outside your window. you might actually see human beings walking in the street.. answer the wake up call OP... ohh and get help.. FML is not really the best place to get the kinda help you need... btw 186, immaturity always depends on the point of view, in my opinion, you could very well be immature for trying to make OP's addiction normal.. see my point?

I'll admit, I have an FB, but I use it like FML. It's really only good for watching the amusing statuses some people post. Other than that... I've shut it down every so often when there's a lull. I don't have time to spend all day on FB, I have video games to play! :O *sarcasm*

Has anyone noticed that FML has started to be used like Facebook? Complete with stupid arguments and meaningless comments? If you're commenting on FML, you have no right to criticize others for using a Facebook.

Maybe it's not just Facebook that made him depressed maybe there are other things that made him feel depressed like for me I know it was when my grandma died right in front of my eyes .. even though that was four years ago it still hurts maybe that's op's problem but you people can't say he deserved it.

73 are u ten? face the facts guys have urges it is natural and apart of being human. they have the urges because nature wants them to procreate. as they may be too young or don't want kids they get rid of the urge by beating there meat. its not disgusting. even women have these urges... ever heard of protected sex? people have sex to rid them selves of there urges. oh and it is spelt disgusting*
