    i have decided to limit my use on social media due to people posting provocative pictures on it. I advise you all to do the same. It's loaded with triggers

    It can also be an emotional trigger. For me personally it has caused a lot of loneliness. This is because I see people I know with friends and I am alone which can cause a lot of emotions. It is best to stay away from these websites.

    Yeah, I took a break off Facebook. Limit it, and you are doing yourself a huge favor.

    I also did the same. Deactivating is temporary and I will get back when I am ready after rewiring the brain.

    Add me in agreement. Also avoid dating websites, they're loaded with triggers and can be considered edging for some. I started trying them out to talk with different girls, but it's not helping me at all. Plus screw that, I want to talk to girls face to face and learn to approach them in public, not from hiding behind a screen!

    Yes. I also experience this frequently.
    i use to have a dating app called "Tinder". Nothing good ever came out of it.

    I have never seen anything triggering on Facebook. Maybe, it depends who your friends are. :rolleyes:

    A lot of my friends post pretty provocative and sexual stuff. Not that I am anti-sex, but it can sometimes be triggering.

    I came across a video that someone posted on FB today that was triggering. I know exactly what you mean. I almost relapsed because of it.
