Social media stalking is common but harmful to healing; block or unfollow your ex, remove apps temporarily, and find healthier distractions.
Social media stalking your ex is incredibly common but ultimately harmful to your healing process. Each time you check their profiles, you're reopening the wound and preventing yourself from moving forward. Block or unfollow them on all platforms, even if it feels dramatic. Consider temporarily deleting social media apps from your phone or asking a friend to coping with change your passwords. When you feel the urge to check, redirect that energy into activities that support your psychological healing, like exercise, calling a friend, or working on a hobby.
