To delete Facebook?

[shalliorshallinot]

Any advice from those who have done it?
It really negatively affects my life.
If I see social photos and I haven’t been invited then I feel down for days.
If I check my profile and notice I’ve lost a couple of friends then I feel down.
I don’t post that much to be honest, as I figured if I wasn’t posting stuff and people deleted me then it wasn’t anything I’d said or done.
I suffer from anxiety.
I’ve posted 3 times in the past month, just a photo of the kids at an activity or the dog doing something funny etc.
Realised this week that an acquaintance I’ve known since I was 11 must have deleted me about a year ago, but kept 50 mutual friends, including my sisters. I can’t stop wondering why.
I’m just worried I’ll miss stuff, like announcements re the kids groups being cancelled, or the school class fb page where class announcements are put up.
Has anyone done the same, and how did you make sure you didn’t miss any vital info?

I deleted Facebook and Instagram and my mental health has improved no end. I wish I'd done it years ago. I deactivated my accounts initially and within weeks just deleted the lot. I now have an IG account just to follow a few bloggers etc but no one I know personally.

I deactivated mine for a few weeks. Didn't delete because there are a couple of people who use messenger that I would have lost contact with.
I did not miss out with friends, but I did miss a foreign newspaper I follow, a television news programme from a different country, and Max and Paddy out in the lake district!
