The Wounds I Carried from Online Music

 

They Tried to Destroy Me Online: My Battle with a Music Platform Bully

Have you ever felt that the online world can turn against you? I discovered this firsthand when a simple duet on a music platform escalated into organized harassment that reached across my social media accounts. Here’s what happened and how I survived.

A Bright Beginning

My journey started with excitement and creativity. I joined the platform to share my voice, connect with others, and perform duets. Everything seemed fun—until I realized not everyone welcomed my presence.

The Unexpected Bully

It started with a single user who objected to my interactions. She blocked duets with certain people and left negative comments. I tried to ignore it at first, but soon the harassment grew more organized.

Coordinated Attacks Across Platforms

The harassment expanded to every linked social media account. Dozens of fake accounts were created, spreading false accusations. The attacks were strategic, relentless, and professional. I felt under siege.

The Emotional Impact

Every online move was scrutinized, and every comment could be twisted. The stress was overwhelming. Yet, despite frustration and hurt, I focused on protecting myself and my creative voice instead of retaliating.

Lessons Learned

This experience taught me valuable lessons:

• Even harmless online activity can provoke cruelty.
• Protect your accounts and privacy; not every comment is truthful.
• Do not let others’ hate define who you are.
• Sometimes stepping back or limiting engagement is essential for mental health.

Despite the attacks, I stood my ground. My voice and creativity remained mine. What seemed like a painful experience became a lesson in resilience and self-protection.
