What has happened to my sister?

[girl]

She used to be outgoing, talk on the phone most of the time, draw and rarely goes on the computer. But now, she stays on the computer for the WHOLE day, I rarely get to use it now. When I try to do something on it, she gets mad and tells me to get lost. I don't see her talk on the phone anymore, she rarely goes outside, doesn't want to come outside to restaurants so we can have a quality time with our family. She has gain a few pounds,but she is not fat. All I see her do is be on fb,twitter, surfing the web, playing games,read stuff and so on. She doesn't chat on fb or twitter she just see what's going on. What happened to the girl I used to know?

She's addicted to social media. Someone needs to "break" the computer for a few weeks so she can get back to normal.

It sounds like your sister is going through some difficult things right now. She may be dealing with issues at school or socially. You should tell an adult (your parents? The school counsor?) that you trust about what's going on with your sister. It sounds like she needs help. its great that you are noticing changes in her character - you can get her the help she needs and could possibly save her from harm. I'm no wizard - I can't magically tell you what's wrong with a person I've never met, but I can tell you that as a carring sister and friend, you need to make sure that your sister stays OK. Better safe than sorry.

Ok, you can either continue asking this question or do something about it. You see, I think your sister has lost motivation. Now she has more friends on fb than she does in real life. I would suggest you tell her the following, it might make an impact on her or not...sit down and tell her how beautiful she is (it's always nice to hear it from the brother), tell her to stop waisting her only and most valuable weapon which is time. Tell her men can grow old but to society that is not a big matter, but for women it is. Let her know that she will not stay young and beautiful forever, and that every minute she's waisting on the web could be a minute she could be spending in something to archive real happiness. Her time is running out, her chances of real happiness is running out, her beauty is going away. Hope I helped.
