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!

I gave Facebook up for lent to but I'm having the opposite effects. I've become more social and I'm involved in sports now. I've acquired a boyfriend and I've lost 14 pound in almost 2 weeks of lent (i think) so this is good for me.

If not having Facebook is causing you to feel depressed, I do not even want to know how you will react when something that is actually worthy of causing depression, such as death, occurs in your life. Take this as a sign that you need to find other ways to communicate with people such as going places with them, or actually calling them to have a conversation. I hate Facebook for this very reason. This reminds me of that FML a weeks back that infuriated me, it was about how someone's parents didn't remember their birthday because Facebook didn't remind them. WTF? Are you kidding me?! I guess my parents are delusional and/or dysfunctional because they always remember my birthday completely on their own.
