The highest rates of cocaine use in the U.S. are among adults  aged 18 to 25 18-25 year-olds make up 35% of the Facebook community
25% of all Americans between the ages of 26 and 34 have used cocaine at least once in their life 46 million Americans 12+ now check their social media sites and services several times every day
1.5 million United States residents are believed to use cocaine at least once per month More than half of all Internet users in the U.S. (75 million)visit Facebook at least once a month
57% of Facebook users are female Men are more likely to use cocaine than women, as the drug is associated with living dangerously and wildly
MORE INDICATORS THAT IS MORE ADDICTIVE
33% of women between the ages of 18 and 34 go online to check their Facebook messages and updates before brushing their teeth.
21% people from a group of 1605 that were questioned for the research admitted that they woke up in the middle of the night to see if something new had happened on Facebook.
A little more than half of Americans aged 12 and above now have a profile on at least one social network.
YOU MIGHT JUST  BE ADDICTED TO  FACEBOOK  IF……
The very first thing that you do in the morning is to check what happened on Facebook.
You spend more than an hour every day on Facebook, and often you stretch out this online time.
You and your family chat on Facebook, even if you still live in the same house.
At work you check about every hour for new messages, posts and comments.
Your time on Facebook is more important than time at work or time spent with your family and friends.
You get anxious when you are not online, and then you start thinking about what your friends might be doing on Facebook until you can't wait any longer and must go online to find out.
Your entire social life revolves around Facebook. You insist that your aging grandmother keeps in contact with you via Facebook.
There are about eight to ten people in your Friend List on Facebook that you have never met and don't know at all.
Good night ! Before going to bed you quickly go online to change your Facebook status: "Good night!".
350 million people are suffering from Facebook Addiction Disorder 
According to a recent study published by Oxygen Media and Lightspeed Research, 40 percent of adults surveyed described themselves as “Facebook addicts.”
More than 500 groups for addicts have been created on Facebook, where members joke about their dependence on the site. 
I’m scared! How do I quit?
keep A Facebook time journal NOT ON FACEOOK!
Try Facebook block software
Try to get a little help from your friends
Deactivate your Facebook account. 
Don’t be afraid, delete your Facebook account.
