1. You will feel empty, depressed and testy when you cannot use the social media.
2. You deceive your family and friends, and you conceal what you had done to them.
3. You have trouble in school work, behavior or social intercourse.

If this is a list of symptoms, eg. of some incipient mental illness, it's OK, but they should all be in the same tense. The first should be "You feel, empty..."
I'd use "social interaction".
