Hi, i’m looking for some advice. I just want to know i’m not alone, recently i’ve been obsessing over how i used to look 4-5 years ago. i’m so disgusted because it’s all over facebook. I have 4 old facebook accounts and i’ve tried everything to delete them, when you search my name up on it all of my old photos show up and it’s so humiliating. this has been on my mind every night and i’ve tried everything to get rid of them. my worst fear is people seeing them and talking about me. I just can’t accept that’s how i looked and if anyone was to ever bring them up i’d cry and be so ashamed. I’m so stupid for even posting all them photos. never felt so ugly and i’ve had to block the accounts for my own sake since i would constantly look at them and feel sick in my stomach. 🫤

So delete or deactivate, and go to therapy to address the self hatred.

I can’t delete the old accounts i have no access to them, i use facebook to stay in contact with family and i regularly post my little one on there. i agree i definitely need to start some therapy as it takes up so much of my life worrying

You just need to figure out how to access the old accounts. Then delete.

No one, other than you, will have the slightest interest in your old photos. They are way too busy worrying about their own.

Please seek some help, soon.
