Here is the Social Media Disorder Scale:

During the past year, have you …
• regularly found that you can’t think of anything else but the moment that you will be able to use
social media again?
• regularly felt dissatisfied because you wanted to spend more time on social media?
• often felt bad when you could not use social media?
• tried to spend less time on social media, but failed?
• regularly neglected other activities (e.g. hobbies, sport) because you wanted to use social media?
• regularly had arguments with others because of your social media use?
• regularly lied to your parents or friends about the amount of time you spend on social media?
• often used social media to escape from negative feelings?
• had serious conflict with your parents, brother(s) or sister(s) because of your social media use?

After doing the test I got 2 out of the 9 items. I feel like these items were a little extreme for me. It is kind of sad that there are really people that have serious problems with social media. I think that there are different patterns around the world because of the different ways that people were brought up. Maybe some areas people don’t have access to electronics. It all depends on the culture that they grow up in.
