Paranoid about my Facebook account

When I was younger I created a Facebook account where I put an username instead of my real name

There are a lot of people that I don’t talk with anymore on it and I wanted a pro Facebook account so I created a new one

Initially I put my whole name on it, but it made me paranoid so I removed my first name and just put together my second and third name so they look only like one name and put my last name

My pic I put was me after 6 months in French Caribbean so I’m more tanned than usual and I have a reggae haircut

So it reassures me thinking people will not recognize me and don’t add me

Recently there was a Facebook link on the forum, I clicked on it and then logged in, so it made me paranoid

I don’t have my first name on my Facebook account so I was like I look suspicious

What are you paranoid about? That people will find you on there? That your personal info becomes public??? What exactly are your concerns

I’m not really sure what I’m scared of

When I was in middle school someone created a false account of me on Facebook and dissed other people and then when I went in middle school people wanted to beat me up

Maybe it’s what is scaring me, that people take my personal info, my pics and bully me

That I’m doxxed too

I’m scared some people would create porn with my pics too

I’m sorry that happened to you. Go into your privacy settings and make sure only friends can see your account etc. make it so you’re not searchable. You’ll have to be the one to initiate bring friends but it can give you peace of mind.
