am i just using them as a means to survive? - curvedafterthought619 - 11-09-2012 06:27 PM

i feel like my life is a mess right now. i always get to disappoint people. i feel like nobody wants to hang around with me. so i tried to make friends in facebook with people i don't even know and it makes me feel that i belong. i think i am using my facebook friends for emotional survival because of the rough times i am going through with my life right now.

Perhaps you are. I don't think it matters if it allows you to survive. We are social creatures, and there are much worse ways of getting your needs met then by befriending people on facebook. Furthermore, if you're going through rough times...then perhaps the relative anonymity of facebook will allow you to be more open and honest regarding how you feel and the emotions that are important for you to get out.
