If you're worried that a message about you in a support group is visible to others and the admin says they can't delete it, you're not alone. This page explains why that happens and offers practical steps to protect your privacy and feel safe.
That is genuinely hard. It makes sense that you're scared, and you are not alone in that. Many people know that feeling. Let's take this step by step.
The person running the support group can't delete it because they might not have control over the platform. Some groups are on social media or forums where only the person who posted the message can delete it. Other times, they might not know how to remove it, or the group might have rules that don't allow deleting posts.
First, don't talk to the person who posted the message. Block them on all your social media if you can. If you feel unsafe, tell someone you trust, like a family member, friend, or teacher. You can also talk to a counselor or mental health professional. They can help you figure out what to do next.
Second, focus on your own well-being. It's okay to take a break from the support group or any online spaces that feel unsafe. Your mental health is important, and it's okay to prioritize that.
