You spend more time online when you're depressed or you get depressed when you spend too much time online? Either way, I get it. I tend to spend a lot of time online when I'm depressed and, sometimes, being online depresses me.

[kallanda_lee]

Are you using it as a coping mechanism, or does visiting those sites make it worse?

[silverr]

awww, Cakewrecks!

Right there with you, OP. For me, depression is about not feeling anything, and immersing yourself in the ocean of quick-hit mini-dopamine blandness that sites like these provide is a GREAT way to avoid feeling anything.

[grausam]

quick-hit mini-dopamine blandness is the perfect term for this, argh

Xanga is still a thing?!?

[fingalsanteater]

I met my SO on Xanga.

I stopped following a lot of sites (almost all of them), and I'm more depressed than I used to be, I think. (Or maybe more aware of it?) Like, I don't even want to read timewaster shit when I'm depressed. Or... actually, tumblr is the ultimate timewaster so maybe I just shifted my attentions to a bigger timewaster.

[diet_poison]

NAR and NAW are excellent sites. I pretty much view them daily.

I don't recognize any of the others except When Parents Text, which I think is a DYAC sub-blog? I haven't been there in ages though.

Anyway, I'd also be interested in knowing if the sites make your depression worse, or if you just tend to go there when you're already depressed for whatever reason.

Aww, OP, I hope it's a temporary phase! At least you don't watch TV the whole day. Studies have shown that it's the single most unsatisfying pastime. ;)

[a_potato]

I'm sorry you've been feeling depressed, OP. I hope that things look up for you soon.

[silvereriena]

Do you go to UBC, OP?

[(Anonymous)]

I'm much the same way (and oh LORDY those Not Always sites are addictive!) though I tend to recognize it as a symptom of worsening depression and take action accordingly.

[solticisekf]

I'm intrigued what kind of action.)

[(Anonymous)]

I remember having a xanga back in the day. Ah, memories!

[(Anonymous)]

Me too, OP. It's the best coping mechanism I know.
