(CNN) – Ever wonder why some people feel the need to post everything that happens to them on social media sites, like Twitter or Facebook?

They found when people share information about themselves, it activates a sensation of pleasure in the brain.

Researchers say it’s the same pleasure we get when having sex, just to a different degree.
