Facebook can be difficult, when people say nasty things, I just delete them :-)

We dont need idiots on our freiends list, its for friends.

Hi

You could just not go on , but if you cant resist , change your settings so you only get to see things from close friends

I go on to talk to my kids , but have everything else private , so only them can see me

If though you have tried all this & still you are feeling stressed , I would say don't use it , there is no point if its making you upset

Love

I don't do fb really. My friends all say they have posted stuff on there and I should read it. But like I said I don't really like it. Its silly and frivolous and a waste of space.

I just set them to family , then just family can contact me , not that sure , though as I cheated & got my son to do it for me

Not sure this will help

Right , Thank you

You got facebook aged kids,caused me no end of trouble has facebook,every schoolteacher hates it,it brings trouble from home to school and vice versa.Even grown adults become childish.I would stay off the site and seeing how others behave on there is reason enough.

I quit facebook and twitter when I realised that they brought nothing significant to my life. If people want to contact me, they know my email address.

I don't miss using those sites either. Good riddance.

I haven't read everyone's comments, but i hate going on facebook when i'm depressed cos it makes me feel small and like eveyone is socializing but me (but i dont want to go out) so i cant win, plus i think i'm the fat ugly one and everyone else is pretty and outgoing it makes me sick! And sometimes it makes me think no-one cares about me if they dont comment on my status. So yes stay away from it if its making you have negative feelings. I think all the technology in this world is making our metal health problems worse! Take care x
