Rhea Chakraborty has announced that she is stepping away from social media for a while, sharing a deeply personal note about feeling emotionally overwhelmed and disconnected from herself due to constant online engagement.

The actor expressed that the pressure of staying active in the digital space, along with endless scrolling and the need to keep up with updates, has started to feel heavier than expected. In her reflective message, she admitted that she has been “missing herself a little,” indicating a growing desire to pause and recalibrate her daily life away from public platforms.

According to her statement, the decision stems from a need to slow down and return to a more grounded way of living. She emphasized the importance of being present in the moment without the compulsion to document or share every experience online. The actor highlighted that she misses “quiet” and “simply being,” suggesting a shift toward prioritising mental peace and personal clarity over constant digital connectivity. 

Rhea further stated that she intends to take time away from social media to breathe more deeply, reflect, and reconnect with what feels authentic and real in her life. She described the break as a conscious choice to focus on lived experiences rather than curated online presence, at least for the time being.

The announcement comes at a time when many public figures have been increasingly vocal about the mental strain of social media usage, often citing burnout, anxiety, and the need for digital detoxes. Her decision reflects a broader conversation around the impact of constant connectivity on emotional well-being.

While she has not specified the duration of her break, she reassured followers that it is temporary, signing off with a message indicating that she would return after taking time for herself.
