It is true that the emergence of SNS is a good thing for many people. In fact, social media can even improve people's health. But recently I have found that because of the use of social media in recent years, there have been some abnormal emotional and psychological state.

Writing a good tweet or updating your Facebook status will make you feel good, but if no one replies, likes, responds or forwards, your good mood disappears. This kind of unresponsive microblogging love (or, perhaps, a ^_^, translator) is like your Friday night at the phone waiting for your boyfriend or girlfriend to call you. Now, you're constantly refreshing the interface on Twitter, lamenting, "why doesn't anybody talk to me?" "This sentiment can only be offset by its antithesis (as the author calls Sally Field-like Twitter love,sally Field is an American actress, translator), which is usually" someone forwarded my message! " They like me! They really like me! ”

To find out what everyone is saying and doing, you will continue to check for new things on Twitter. And, you'll flip up and down to the news of your last check to make sure you don't miss anything important. For example, when your mouse is placed at the bottom of the page, you will have a strong sense of where to scroll the page to see the latest developments.

Users often have a psychological need to constantly log on to Foursquar, Gowalla, and Facebook geographic services, not because they want to tell their friends where they are, but to protect their mayor status on a particular site from being replaced by others. (In a Geography service like Foursquare, where you check-in more than one place, you will become the mayor of that place) and for those who have not become mayor, they will also try to capture the title from the incumbent mayor. If you don't have the opportunity to be the mayor of your office or café because you often forget about check-in, frustration will follow.

You feel obligated to add meaningless comments to other people's status updates, tweets or blogs, such as "I agree!" "I Like it!" ”。 You do this just to make others feel that you care about them, or that you are seeking attention from others. The victims of this mental state are usually teenagers, but we also find cases from older users. These victimized users quickly tracked and commented on almost all the information of others. The most serious victims will even comment on the status updates of celebrities and even organizations that are unrelated to them.

When you read a friend's update status or tweet, and you don't care about the information, there's no response or any emotion. And, you may be angry about these irrelevant information and don't understand "why should I care if someone is sunburned?" "The most notable manifestation of this symptom is the inclusion of groups that claim to" remove all requests from the ' FarmVille ' (Facebook happy Farm), telling your friends and follower that you don't have time to see updates from everyone else. Of course, a large number of users are bored with irrelevant information at the same time, but also caused their friends and follower "Weibo unrequited love."

The above is the author summed up in the SNS on the five major abnormal mood. Do you have similar symptoms or other opinions? Welcome to communicate with us. We welcome any comments, even those from people who have a tendency to "habitual comment". :-)
