Social media is causing.../ What is "Rebecca" syndrome? Experts:

Rebecca syndrome, also known as "retroactive jealousy," is a growing phenomenon in modern relationships where individuals feel insecure about their partners' past relationships.

This term, coined by psychoanalyst Dr. Darian Leader, refers to feelings of jealousy that arise about partners' past relationships, causing them to compare themselves to former partners and believe that they are better in some respects.

These feelings are often rooted in childhood experiences, such as feelings of neglect by parents, and can lead to feelings of exclusion in current relationships. Social media contributes to this problem by providing an easy opportunity to check the details of past relationships.

Looking at old photos with ex-partners can trigger jealousy, increasing anxiety and negative thoughts. To manage these feelings, experts recommend reflecting on the past and being careful with social networks.

It is important to focus on the current relationship and avoid comparisons with the past. This syndrome requires attention and treatment to avoid its negative impact on modern relationships.
