Deactivating BP account and reactivating it later?

[Becca F.]

Is there a way I could deactivate my BP account (like on Facebook where you could deactivate it and reactivate it later)? Or is the only option to delete my account then if I want to join again, I'd have to re-start a new account. Thanks for your help.

Quote from @Becca F.:

That's what I thought. I emailed Help Support to ask them or if they can delete my posts (which contain a lot of personal info, good thing I didn't post my last name on here) and they said no. BP won't let us self delete posts unlike other social media (Facebook, Instagram). 

I'm very likely to delete my account soon

If you want to be "erased" post something they think is controversial and I can attest "it all goes away".
