How do you stop stalking/ keeping tabs on people? I know it’s weird and unhealthy but I don’t know how to stop, it’s like a weird dopamine hit for me. I don’t even talk to or see these people anymore/ever

I used to do the same thing, and I just had to block them and take a break from socials in order to fully stop and stop wanting to keep tabs.

Fair but I get worried that they have the app that can tell you who blocked you 😭

meta doesn’t have a usable api so third party apps don’t work on instagram. but if you don’t talk to or see them ever, does it really matter?

Wait I didn’t know that maybe I’ll just block them now. And true idk I just get so anxious about people knowing that I’m thinking abt them idk why but it’s def not that deep

yep i don’t think there’s a way for them to find out unless they are also thinking about you and actively seek out your account. do what you gotta do for your own mental peace 🙂‍↕️
