If my family, home, finances, mental health were all at risk because of my postings on Instagram I would simply delete it.
If I wanted to continue because I get real joy from sharing my life, I would make my profile private and I would only add my real friends- the ones who I actually know in real life.
Sharing my home and children, literally opening the door and photographing everything for 24,600 people is a risk to your safety.
In the case of some Insta stars I know what jewellery they have and in some cases can work out where they store it, I have seen their bedrooms and dressing rooms, I know where car keys are kept and the cars driven, I know the layout of houses and the storage of expensive handbags and clothes, I know their daily routine ....it’s a lot of information to share with strangers!!!!
I would be sat down with my husband/therapist/best mate and discussing what the hole in my life is that needs to be filled by showing off to strangers (because in this case it isn’t for financial gain).
All of the risks associated with sharing would mean I would delete insta but if you can’t do that the there is a reason why and that might therefore be a long conversation!
(I wouldn’t be on here moaning, you can’t control other people’s behaviour, you can control yours and your reaction!)
