It was all fine until it logged out on its own and when I tried logging in, it says 'user doesn't exist.'
Now what I am talking about? Well, I am talking about my Instagram account which has gone two days ago and I am not sure what happened to it. I don't know whether it has been deleted or hacked or removed, either way, my account doesn't exist. My Instagram account is GONE!!!
Am I sad about it? Maybe a little. But I am still looking for ways to recover it by mailing the customer support but most importantly, I want to know what happened and why did it happen? I don't mind starting another account and the sad part is, it is all from scratch and there isn't even an ounce of your initial account, all the posts, story highlights, followers, following, all that you have built up in the last six years. It is all gone and there are fewer chances of retrieving the same. It's like a house you have spent years building got washed away. Creating takes time and effort while destroying it takes little or no time and effort.
It would take months to write a novel and minutes for it to get shredded or burnt. It would take months to plant a tree and minutes to cut it down. It would take months or years to build a relationship and just seconds to break up. The same thing has happened with my Instagram account. Six years sharing thoughts, moments, and memories, connecting with people, and many others. But now it is all gone.
Maybe it is a sign to restart and refocus since I have been eliminating unwanted layers. It could be a sign to let go of the past and that you shouldn't hold on to it any longer. It could be a virtual rebirth and also yours. If that is the case, I am willing to accept and ready to start from scratch. But having said that, I still want to know what happened and why it happened, and if there is any possible way to retrieve it.
Any suggestions or advices would be helpful. I am still trying the customer help support and I am not sure if it is helpful enough. But I want to know what and how and why it happened to get a closure and start anew. To my (previous) Instagram account, losing you along with any posts, story highlights replies and messages might be a sign for something and I am ready to accept that. But still I want to see if there is any hope of recovering you. Let's see what happens.
