I'm impressed by your resilience. If I had gone through that I'm sure I would have quit social media for good. I was upset enough when I was called "orthorexic" on a mom's group because I said that baby formula that contains lactose instead of corn syrup or cane sugar was preferable. I have limited my posting significantly to avoid as much "social media anxiety" as possible.
Thanks for reflecting, and I’m sorry that people were so mean to you online too. Resilience is the natural result of surviving I think — there’s some truth to that saying, what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. And my relationship to social media now is primarily oriented towards creating, rather than consuming, which makes it more of an outlet for my creativity than a source of anxiety. The anxiety I get these days comes more from in-person meetings 😊
