How to handle a breakup on social media

Managing a breakup on social media can be emotionally challenging. Here are some key strategies for doing it in a healthy and respectful way:

– Consider temporarily restricting or eliminating relationships with the ex-partner to reduce exposure to their posts. For example, check if it is possible to unfollow or delete photos with the person.

– Resist the temptation to post emotional or negative messages about the breakup. It is key to keep communication private and away from social networks.

– Chat with close friends, family, or a mental health professional for emotional support outside of social media.

– Dedicate time to activities that promote emotional well-being such as dance, sports, among others.

How advisable is it to block the ex-partner on social networks

Blocking your ex-partner on social networks can be a recommended decision for many people after a breakup. This helps avoid the temptation to constantly check your profile, which could prolong the emotional healing process.

By blocking, stress is reduced and a healthy boundary is set for both of you, making it easier to focus on your own recovery and mental well-being. However, the decision depends on each individual and the nature of the previous relationship. Some may choose to unfollow or adjust privacy settings to maintain some contact, but limited.
