Blog 3- Draft 1

A.      Perspective I disagreed with? Facebook depression

·         In the article published by AAP, there is a section on Facebook depression.

·         Facebook depression is defined as depression that develops when preteens and teens spend a lot of their time on any social media site, especially Facebook, and then start to have classic symptoms of depression.

·         There should be no such thing as “Facebook Depression.” I know well-qualified researchers and doctors came up with this, but I think it’s just a computer addiction problem. An addiction to Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, and more.

B.      How can you get the audience’s attention at the beginning of the blog and get them interested?

·         With a title like, “Can Someone Become Depressed from Facebook?” I would probably read it.

C.      Are there any situations in which this perspective might be valid or understandable?

·         If someone was being harassed or bullied on Facebook, it could be called “Facebook Depression,” Twitter- “Twitter Depression.”

·         A person really can become depressed because of Facebook, but there’s usually more to it. The person is being harassed, doesn’t feel pretty enough,  etc.
