[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 497244, member: 11791"] Technology is the most anti-social form of communication ever created. It is completely artificial, unnatural, and goes against every instinct built into us since we came to walk upon the earth. Convenient. Practical for some things. But... when it comes to "socialization" - it destroys way more than the good it does. Her so-called friends? are not friends at all, if the only form of communication is electronic. (phone-calls do not come into this category... text messages do, along with email, face book, BBs, etc.) It is so far removed from reality, that it can feed (not necessarily create) mental health issues like depression and anxiety. The fact that she can't handle being "unplugged"... is a serious issue in and of itself. Its an addiction, and probably needs to be treated as such. What you saw last night was "withdrawal symptoms". Maybe? [/QUOTE]
