Thank you for writing this. I'm only just starting to realise how toxic Instagram is so your article is very timely. I've been umming and ahhing about deleting my account for some reason, I think it's the addiction talking.

I think the rise of influencers is similar to the rise of reality TV and so many reality TV stars have taken their own life in the last few years. It's so awful that the ending of someone's life comes down to numbers and a hashtag.
