This article is the result of a research that aimed to analyze the relationship between the use of Facebook and the establishment of social bonds among adolescents. Ten adolescents participated in the research, they were interviewed, and psychoanalysis was taken as the main theoretical framework. From the analysis of the data, it was possible to perceive that the image occupied a privileged place in the relationships, since adolescents seek social recognition through Facebook mechanisms, valuing quantitative aspects in detriment of the qualitative aspects in relationships. One of the main effects observed was the weakening of symbolic, subjective, and singular productions. Thus, the work acts as a starting point for future discussions in favor of the analysis of contemporary vicissitudes on the social bond established by adolescents.

Keywords : psychoanalysis; adolescence; social bond; contemporaneity; Facebook.
