Are you a facebook addict?
Do you use facebook more than necessary? How many hours in a day do you sit glued to facebook or other online networking site?
I've almost quit Facebook entirely. I keep it because my Mother won't take the time to figure out blogging so I have to send every photo and link to her through her Facebook account. I wish she would move on.
Facebook is not one of my addictions. I spend maybe an hour a day there participating in Squidoo and Zazzle groups and answering anything that seems important in my email notifications. I also might check profiles of friends I'm especially interested in. If I have social networking addictions, they are at MyLot or Gather. My addiction to Gather is so strong I have to stay away from it except for maybe once or twice a month. At least I get paid for using myLot, but so I don't feel so bad about my addiction. But I also try not to spend any more time than I have to spare there. I check in and reply to any discussions that interest me.
Before I used to be addicted to Facebook. Currently, I make myself busy in writing article and blogging.

Why do so many people want to blame drug dealers and not drug addicts?I ask this question because of something I saw yesterday. I saw a police officer taking away a 6 year old child for dealing drugs (obviously not a prison...6 year old kid after all). And I thought to myself, his circumstances put...

Do you feel sorry for a Drug Addict?It is never always the same for anyone. A drug addict can be picked on or won't be judged at all. Do you think a drug addict is a weak person for turning to such a bad habit?
