How to stop stalking his social media after a breakup

Any suggestions on how to stop stalking his social medias? I know it’s just gonna hurt more, but I can’t seem to stop. It’s an urge that I have to check. Any help is needed!

what's usually happening right before you check? is it boredom, missing him, or hoping you'll see something that makes you feel better?

He’s talking to a new girl right now, so part of it is just curiosity to see if he’s dating her now, but finding that answer is just gonna hurt me and I need to let whatever happen, happen.

i started making myself wait 10 minutes every time i got the urge, and most of the time it passed. it wasn't perfect, but it slowly gave me my own choices back instead of letting the urge win.

i'd tell myself i was "just curious," then i'd close the app feeling worse every single time. deleting the apps for a while was the only thing that finally broke that habit for me
