Hello there,

I’m not going to dump on you. I just want to tell you that FB has the option to “hide”. I have a younger family member that I have chose this option for. I do not like the kind of crap she post on FB. So I’m able to still remain friends with her yet not see her crap she post. As far as the jealousy I’m glad your trying to work through it in therapy. Maybe in time you can reach out to her on Messenger and just catch up keep it real light. It’s probably best to just check in on her every few months and leave it at that. This is not the end of the world. Back in 2012 when I was first diagnosed correctly. I had been put on a AD and was being tapered off because it made me full blown manic. I went on FB and cussed out my sister. I unfriend a friend from high school and one from college. I did later apologize to my sister on FB. After doing a lot of reading and getting on the right meds. Now when I’m not feeling good I don’t get on social media. And for the record if you decide to not be friends with anyone. You can tell them as little OR as much as you want. You can simply say “I’m not in a good place right now and I’m working on me”. Then ask the person is it ok if I check-in on you every few months? What some people don’t get some girls are very competitive and think they have to be top of everything. What you have to understand is your situation is different than your friend. Does your friend have a MI?
