I experienced some trauma several years ago online. Basically I had suicidal depression and some other issues. I went online and people were (unprovoked) telling me that my current condition warranted suicide, they gave reasons that sounded solid and well-rounded, they told me how I could do it so it wouldn't hurt, etc etc etc. I started trying to kill myself until I was forcibly barred from using the internet. I don't really feel like killing myself anymore but to this day I still have a lingering phobia of the web and I can't use it without supervision and limits. And a lot of the reason it that I'm afraid of people online. Without meaning to, I find them saying really upsetting things, and I can't get over it.

I know some spells for keeping people away from me, but they're intended to target specific people I've met in real life. Are there spells to keep venom-spitting strangers away from me while I'm online? I see really disturbing photos online, too, pictures of bad injuries and pictures with upsetting captions, and I'd like to keep those away. I'm currently using pictures of animal "guardians" on my desktop, but I don't think it's enough.

Also... I don't know if I'll ever do it, but... is it possible for me to cast a curse on somebody I've only seen online? Sometimes I get really angry about how there don't seem to be any consequences for anyone's words or actions now that the internet exists, and people like me have died because of it. There's the Rule of Threes and everything but... every time I see someone urging a 10 year old girl to kill herself or cheering for a mass-shooting, I feel like I want to make them pay...
